Liverpool’s failure to get 2 goals pass the League Two side Carlisle United over 120 minutes in the Capital One Cup showcased how the team has been struggling in every aspect in recent times and the man to blame escapes by saying “we played with great character” .
Liverpool journalist reporter Graham Beecroft, has suggested Brendan Rodgers’ time at Anfield is over and they will sack him imminently.
It is believed that Liverpool’s FSG owners had already come to a conclusion about the manager before the Carlisle gam. His absence at the post match conference just added more weight to the speculations. Just one goal at home against the Football League’s worst defence, from 47 attempts spread over two hours of game time at Anfield – the winner which the Reds kept waiting for never came.

Fans are giving Rodgers some stick as under his guidance Liverpool have gained 16 points from their past 15 Premier League fixtures. If the sacking is further delayed and if results don’t improve, Liverpool could be out of the Top-4 race soon if they are not careful and would be tough for the successor to achieve the desired expectations.
Manchester United and Arsenal have started to show signs of shifting away from the Reds as their form becomes more consistent and Mourinho’s Chelsea will turns things around as the season progresses.
The season of rebuilding is gone and to have another is simply not good enough and Liverpool need to be in a position where they are still very much fighting among the top guns.
SkySports reported that Jurgen Klopp is interested in Premier League switch.
