Liverpool: 10 Reasons Why Rodgers Must Face The Axe

6. FA Cup Semi-Final

If squandering their top-four chances when bottling must-win games against West Brom and Hull didn€™t leave Liverpool fans infuriated enough, a horrific showing against Aston Villa in the FA Cup semi final left fans thoroughly perplexed.

Having taken the lead against a relegation-threatened Villa side, Liverpool were blown away by Tim Sherwood's outfit who were clearly more equipped to battle for the win on the day - raising questions about Rodgers€™ inspirational qualities and whether or not the players are actually in sync with the bosses ideas.

Jack Grealish dazzled on the Wembley turf, resembling a young Andres Iniesta, and Christian Benteke was made to look like Rivaldo-reborn, such was the lack of passion, drive and quality shown by a limp Liverpool side entirely bereft of ideas.

One of the most embarrassing days in Liverpool's recent history which means yet another season without silverware. This must be aggravating the decision-makers at the top of the club.
