Aubameyang backs Klopp to lead Liverpool to Europa League glory

The Dortmund star is still in shock about the defeat to Liverpool in the Europa League, which saw his side go 3-1 up before losing the game 4-3.

However, Aubameyang has heaped praise upon his former boss and believes the German can lead the English club all the way in the competition.

When asked about the game, Aubameyang said: "That's bad, that's very bad."

"Look, it was a very nice game I think for the people because we play there and it was an unbelievable game because we were winning 2-0, and then 3-1, and then they came back like "wow I can't believe it".

"Even until now I can't believe it because it's unbelievable but we knew that Liverpool can do this.

"We were like this (holds up a tiny gap between his finger and thumb) away from the semi-final but sometimes football is like this.

"For sure I think Jurgen Klopp was a factor. When we played here in Dortmund everybody was speaking about him after that [and] I think because he knew us... I think normally if we do more pressing it would be good

"They [Liverpool] have something special and I think Jurgen Klopp brings this energy. They can win every time - also when they lose, they can come back and they have something special. I think. That's why I say they can win the Europa league for sure.'
