Rodgers faces chop

STONE-ON-TRENT. — Brendan Rodgers conceded his job could be on the line after Liverpool suffered their biggest ever defeat in the English Premier League in a humiliating 6-1 loss at Stoke.

Rodgers said he knows the pressure is on him and will resign if asked to by the club’s owners.

A brace from Mame Biram Diouf plus goals from Jonathan Walters, Charlie Adam, Steven Nzonzi and Peter Crouch condemned the Reds to their worst loss since a 7-2 hammering by Tottenham in April 1963. Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard netted a goal in his 750th and final appearance for his hometown club but it was scant consolation on a chastening final day of a disappointing season for Reds manager Rodgers. — AFP.
