Steven Gerrard praises Jurgen Klopp's 'brilliant' influence

Steven Gerrard has praised Jurgen Klopp's impact at Liverpool and wishes he had the chance to play for the German.

Gerrard is back training at Melwood during the Major League Soccer off-season before returning to LA Galaxy next month.

And the former captain has felt the effects of Klopp's positive influence around the club.

Recalling a meeting with the German last month, Gerrard told the Evening Standard: "I had coffee with him and when I came out of the room I just felt happy. I felt taller. And I am not one of the players so I can only imagine what he has done to those players in the dressing room.
