End game for Hodgson and Ancelotti?
Pressure increases after Liverpool slump to 3-1 at Blackburn and Chelsea suffer 1-0 reverse against bottom club Wolves

Roy Hodgson's reign as Liverpool manager is all but over this morning after another desperate performance from his side saw them comfortably beaten 3-1 at his former club Blackburn Rovers.
Liverpool's defensive capitulation meant Hodgson's side went in at half-time 2-0 down to goals from Martin Olsson and Benjani Mwaruwari. Benjani scored a third for Blackburn in the second half, but Liverpool were the architects of their own downfall as errors by Glen Johnson, Martin Skrtel and Sotirios Kyrgiakos gifted the home side their goals. Steven Gerrard pulled back a late consolation but missed a penalty in the dying moments of the game. The defeat may prove to be one too far for Hodgson, who replaced Rafael Benitez last summer.
Things are so bad now that Liverpool's new owner, Fenway Sports Group, may install a caretaker and Kenny Dalglish is understood to be willing to step into the breach. Hodgson may be relieved of his duties today.
Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is also under immense pressure now after the defending champions lost 1-0 to Wolverhampton Wanderers, who had started the day at the bottom of the Premier League, thanks to an own goal from defender Jose Bosingwa. Ancelotti's side have now taken 10 points from a possible 33, and although owner Roman Abramovich is understood to be reluctant to sack the Italian, his hand may be forced by Chelsea's dismal run.
Gérard Houllier at Aston Villa is another manager whose position is looking ever more precarious after his team lost 1-0 to Sunderland at Villa Park.
And on a terrible night for the Premier League's under-fire managers, West Ham United collapsed to a 5-0 defeat to Newcastle United to put more pressure on manager Avram Grant.
At the top of the table, Arsenal outplayed Manchester City at The Emirates but could not find a way past their obdurate visitors in a goalless draw that boiled over in the final minutes when Arsenal's Bacary Sagna and Pablo Zabaleta of Manchester City were both sent off for a clash of heads.
Are we winning?
