When Liverpool made a patchy start to the campaign, Roy Hodgson asked to be judged after ten games, but perhaps he should have requested an 11-match assessment period because things are looking an awful lot rosier after their fine 2-0 victory over champions Chelsea.

It was the Reds' fourth win in succession in all competitions and they are now joint-sixth in the Premier League, just five points shy of Arsenal and Manchester City in Champions League positions, quite an achievement given that they were joint bottom only three weeks ago.

Over 90 per cent of the Liverpool comments that we've had on our site over the last month or so have been calling for Roy Hodgson's dismissal, so we want to know if the recent turnaround in form has convinced some fans that the former Fulham boss deserves time to show what he can do, or if they'd still rather he was replaced as swiftly as possible.

Was it simply a case of needing Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres back at the top of their game to progress or is it more so that their hint at a return to form is earning him a stay of execution? We'd love to hear your views.

In addition, our claim last week that backing Liverpool for a top-six finish was a good bet felt like a bold one at the time, as was suggested by odds of 2.3, however now that they've pulled level with Bolton and co, it feels almost inevitable, and it's no great shock that the price has come in to 1.9.
