Liverpool, who nearly won a quadruple last season, is mired in mid-table and will finish the year without a trophy.
In the upcoming transfer window, Liverpool will attempt to make "wise" hires, according to Jurgen Klopp, who also insisted he is driven to get the Reds back on track.
Liverpool has had a terrible season; with nine games left, they are currently seventh in the Premier League, unlikely to qualify for the Champions League, and out from all cup tournaments.
The news last week that the club had given up on Jude Bellingham because of Borussia Dortmund's asking price further infuriated the supporters.
Before Liverpool's Monday trip to Leeds United, Klopp told Sky Sports that those interested in their transfer intentions should "wait and see."
"I truly have nothing to say. You'll have to wait till we're done before you can see what we accomplished, he said.
"We must be prepared for compliments or criticism. That's much more crucial. We'll start working with the boys on the first day of the new season, and we'll really go for it.
"Media speculation makes up the remaining information. We are not involved in that in any way.
In recent weeks, players like Mason Mount, Alexis Mac Allister, and Ryan Gravenberch have been linked to Liverpool, and Klopp voiced his confidence that those in charge of the club's transactions are in a good position to handle their problems.
We constantly strive to hire wisely, according to Klopp. "If you gave a few people the power stick, I can guarantee you that we would sign 20 new players for the upcoming season.
"If you distributed it to a few more people, we might do things like bring back former players from when we were successful. We made the decision that we are in command, so let's move forward from there.
We always try to be shrewd in the transfer market, so it's not completely new to us. It's an interesting time, very interesting.
