# Liverpool: Fans fume at Grujic and Van den Berg claim

**Some Liverpool fans have been bemoaning the news that Sepp van den Berg and Marko Grujic could be used as squad players next season.**

The Reds have had an extremely difficult campaign, failing to defend their Premier League title and now desperately battling to finish in the top four.

Key players have under-performed, such as Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino – they have scored just [13 league goals between them](https://www.lfchistory.net/SeasonArchive/Goalscorers/130) – while Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip are all long-term [injury absentees](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/sperrenundverletzungen/verein/31).

The hope from these fans is clearly that Jurgen Klopp delves into the transfer market this summer, freshening up his squad and adding quality in the process.

According to the [*Liverpool Echo*](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/) \[via [*The Anfield Buzz*](https://twitter.com/TheAnfieldBuzz/status/1382755383832367110?s=20)\], however, Liverpool could show faith in [Van den Berg](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/351705/Show/Sepp-van-den-Berg) and [Grujic](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/244779/Show/Marko-Grujic) next season, with the pair currently on loan at Preston North End and Porto, respectively.
