Comparing bookmakers’ odds after match week 4 to match week 6, we can see that Brendan Rodgers and Steven Gerrard are the clear favourites for the chop.
- Brendan Rodgers is the favourite to be sacked after failing to register a win after 6 games in the Premier League, an increase of 31% from the previous week.
- Steven Gerrard is the second favourite, with odds of 3/1 (57% likelihood) – the third favourite is Steve Cooper with 10/1 odds (5% likelihood) so it very much feels like a two-horse race between Rodgers and his former captain.
- When Scott Parker was sacked, his odds were listed as 33/5 by bookmakers (13% likelihood) meaning Rodgers is now 6 times more likely to get the sack now than Parker was then.

I dont follow football like most of you I have a personal hatred of the boys from west London but I do recall several decent players there
Tielemans Maddison Vardy a FB we were after plus Fofana
surely that is the nucleus of a decent team?
Sack and Spoon race!
Yep… Brenda next stop probably Rangers… I think Stevie G will be ok.
The way the PL works they’ll probably swap
positions.
Big pay off from Leicester for Brendan then onto the next million pound job.
Dead man walking.
Could be off to Forest …if things don’t improve..
Sacked in the morning
You’re getting sacked in the morning

They’ve ‘done a Levy under Poch’ – signed effectively diddly squat this summer and no surprise they seem stale and lacking.
Brendan Rogers is a dead man walking! I am tempted to say the same about Gerrard, but a good point against City has bought him some temporary respite (he still won’t last the season in my opinion).
The very same Brendan Rogers who, just 9 months ago was one of the top targets of none other than Tottenham Hotspur, and who waved that link off like a man shooing a fly at a barbecue. How very apt.
