Rafa's just finished his pre-CL press conference, and the gimp from Sky was there rolleyes bugging him for like 35 mins straight about what he thought of the ex-LFC owners, Purslow and LFC's current table position.
To be fair he managed to avoid commenting for a long time, but then he kinda snapped
In short:
2 summers ago, owners instilled Purslow as MD of footballing matters.
He was in charge of 'cost cutting' at the owners request, and fired some of Rafa's back room staff (coaches).
He was also granted control of transfers (in and out) and ordered to 'help balance the books'.
Purslow had a chance to side with Rafa, but ultimately did as the owners asked, and that was the end of that.
Interesting.
-edit-
Final point - Purslow was stirring up trouble in the dressing room, between the players and Rafa and the players + other players.
