Brendan Rodgers singled out Kolo Toure in front of everyone after Arsenal defeat

The backpage of today’s Mirror claims that Brendan Rodgers is facing a dressing room mutiny, after he accused the players of not playing for him following the defeat at Arsenal.
Rodgers came out and vehemently denied those claims at his press conference today, insisting it’s all invented rubbish.
But Jim Boardman, an authority on all things Liverpool and a writer with the Anfield Wrap, has details more on the story, and has at least identified a player involved.
Whereas the Mirror story limited itself to ‘senior players’ being disgruntled with Rodgers’ meeting, Boardman claims that the whole thing erupted after Rodgers singled out Kolo Toure in front of everyone.
The Ivorian had a day to forget at the Emirates on Saturday, and was particularly at fault for Olivier Giroud’s goal.
Boardman claims that Rodgers ‘had a go’ at Toure in front of everyone, which led some senior players to ‘tear strips’ off Rodgers.
