Brendan Rodgers is 16 days away from marking the third anniversary of his appointment as Leicester City manager. There is no sense of celebration in the air around King Power stadium, though. The team have five games to play in the next two weeks. They are, as the Northern Irishman might say, not in a good moment. Neither is Rodgers.
The 49-year-old is reeling from the 4-1 rout by Nottingham Forest at the City Ground in the FA Cup on Sunday. Tonight he takes his side to Merseyside to face a Liverpool team with a point to make after losing the reverse fixture 1-0 in December. There have been many changes at Anfield since Rodgers was sacked seven years ago and replaced by Jurgen Klopp but there are a number of individuals who remain at the club who have little time for the former manager.
