Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher says Brendan Rodgers cannot afford a humbling at the hands of Manchester United today.
Carragher wrote in the Daily Mail: "Results and performances have not been good enough. Liverpool have won only five of the 14 games they have played and defeats have included the FA Cup semi-final against Aston Villa, a 6-1 shambles at Stoke City in May and that startling loss to West Ham two weeks ago.
"It appeared that Rodgers had ridden the storm after an encouraging performance in the goalless draw at Arsenal, but it was only going to take one bad day for the natives to become restless again and losing 3-0 to a club who had not won at Anfield since 1963 was as bad as it could be.
"That result in isolation could be brushed off but Rodgers is under pressure because of what has happened over the last 12 months. If he was fortunate to keep his job in May, it is his misfortune that the heat is back on him so soon.
"Were Liverpool to lose and perform badly — and it is startling they have been struggling to create chances — the criticisms of Rodgers would resurface
