The odds just dropped massively on one of Europe’s leading coaches replacing Brendan Rodgers

Is it time to panic?

What the hell happened to Liverpool?

The Merseysiders’ start to the season was solid until the 3-0, erm, hammering, at home to West Ham.

To put the victory into context, it’s the first time the Hammers have beaten a Liverpool side at Anfield for 52 years.

This embarrassing defeat has seen odds plunge on Rodgers to get the sack – and there’s one man in the frame.

Former Borussia Dortmund boss Jürgen Klopp is now at 2/1 to be the new Liverpool boss should Rodgers get the chop.

Frank De Boer and Carlo Ancelotti are also in the mix at around 7/2 and 7/1 respectively, but Klopp seems a perfect fit at Anfield and could be a fans’ favourite.

With Manchester United up next, we might find out sooner rather than later.
