Liverpool’s Europa League last-32 opponents Augsburg have offered visiting fans a “scouse/German” translation guide to help their trip go smoothly.
As the clubs prepare to meet in the first leg of their tie on Thursday, Augsburg tweeted “a little something to help our @LFC friends out & about in Augsburg, and perhaps even #Klopp back at home.”
Among the translations on offer are: “Mi head’s chocka / Ich kann nicht klar denken” and “Givin it bifters / Dein Bestes geben”.

Jürgen Klopp, who was given one-on-one lessons in some key local phrases by a young Liverpool fan last year, is without Adam Lallana and the 22-year-old Kevin Stewart for the trip, though Lucas Leiva is fit.
“Kevin blocked a shot and his ankle was not stable,” he said. “It was a bit bruised so we have sent him for a scan; we think it’s the ligament. He trained outstandingly and then this happened. That’s not too good, but Lucas is back.”
