Liverpool's owners are considering whether to sack manager Roy Hodgson, according to Sky Sports.
The Reds are currently undergoing a rocky period as their recent run of results has seen them failing to rise above the mediocrity of a mid-table position in the Premier League, despite having recovered from a difficult start in the campaign when they were in the relegation zone.
A recent run of three losses in their last four league games has seen the fires of speculation being fanned around the former Fulham boss, particularly more so as he has failed to win over fans of the club.
The 63-year-old's side fell to yet another difficult defeat recently against Blackburn, as a Benjani double and a goal from Martin Olsson saw the Venky's-owned club triumph over their more illustrious opponents.
Even Wolves locked horns with Liverpool and managed to beat them at Anfield, like Blackpool and Northampton Town - in the League Cup - had done before.
BBC Sport also claims that the Reds' owners are pondering over whether Hodgson is the right man to lead the club, but no decision concerning his future is thought to have been taken just yet.
For his part, the boss chose not to dwell on his future following the bitter defeat to Blackburn, while insisting that he felt disheartened by the result.
There have been reports that club legend Kenny Dalglish could be called on to manage Liverpool - if Hodgson is shown the door - on a temporary basis for the rest of the season, at which point a permanent replacement could be installed.
