Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich could dispense with Jose Mourinho following the 3-1 loss to Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

Two goals from Philippe Coutinho and a late strike from substitute Christian Benteke have put Mourinho on the brink.

Despite their shaky start – conceding a 4th-minute goal from Ramires – Liverpool could scarcely have won this match more emphatically.

They took the game to Chelsea for the better part of the game, but eventually helped by some laughable defending by the home side.

Mourinho said before this game that his team are not getting the rewards their performances deserve. But surely, he can’t say that after this game. They got exactly what their performance deserved.

Also before the match, the Portuguese insisted he did not fear being sacked if Chelsea lost to Jurgen Klopp’s side. But the nature of his team’s display could force Abramovich’s hand.
