Looking back on his early days at Liverpool, Van den Berg said he found it difficult to cope with the pressure of being a young player in a new country with no one to turn to for support.

He recalled feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from the team, even going so far as to question whether he wanted to attend training sessions.

However, Van den Berg has spoken positively about his experiences at Brentford, where he has formed strong connections with his teammates and the club's staff.

The Dutch defender has praised the warmth and openness he feels at the club, including regular interactions with the owner and sports directors.

He also appreciates the support of his teammates, who have helped him feel more at ease in a new city, far from his family and girlfriend, who are based in the Netherlands.

Van den Berg has reflected on the challenges he faced at Liverpool as a learning experience that has made him stronger and more confident in his abilities.
