Marko Grujic was back to his best for Hertha Berlin with his manager, Pal Dardai, claiming that the Serbian was the best player he had seen during his time at the Bundesliga club.
The on-loan Liverpool star suffered an injury which had halted his progress earlier in the season and has picked up another injury which rules him out till the winter break.

The 22-year-old has helped Hertha to sixth in the Bundesliga and the club haven’t lost with Grujic in the team.
The midfielder shared his disappointment with the injury but will undoubtedly be looking to perform to his best from January onwards.
🗣️ Marko #Grujić on his injury: “Obviously I was gutted once I knew I would be out for a few weeks again, especially as I was only just getting back to full fitness. I will keep looking forwards though.”#hahohe pic.twitter.com/2nry969653

Grujic has grabbed his opportunities well at Hertha and we are seeing what he can do in a top European league.
The Serb did well with Cardiff last season as he helped them gain promotion to the Premier League, and should he continue performing with Hertha, he can dream of playing regularly for Liverpool.

The Reds have several options for their midfield, and it will be interesting to see if the 22-year-old fits into our plans next season.
