Tough times ahead for Reds: Rodgers

Rodgers had hoped for a morale-boosting victory as he looks to make an immediate impact following his appointment as successor to Kenny Dalglish. Rodgers said: "I have to give big credit to the players, they ran to a standstill.

"Days like this hurt - and there will be other days like this. I have heard lots about patience but we have got to win games. It was a bad day at the office for us."u00a0
