Twitter Trolls Brendan Rodgers as Liverpool Concede 5 1st-Half Goals at Stoke

Liverpool's bad week got exponentially worse on Survival Sunday. 

First, they lost Steven Gerrard's final home match as a Reds player 3-1 to Crystal Palace. Then, they spent an entire week dealing with rumours about Raheem Sterling's future. Finally, they fell to an astonishing 5-0 half-time scoreline against Stoke City.

No one was spared on the Internet, especially Brendan Rodgers. 

There were memes. Oh, there were memes.

When you consider it could be 6 or 7 nil I'd say 5-0 isn't that bad. Stoke is a tough place to come.

The trolling continued after the match, as the travelling support chanted former manager Rafa Benitez's name.
