Rafael Benitez has made public his irritation with the Liverpool board following their recent statement regards the proposed transfer of Gareth Barry.
When asked whether there were any further developments on the saga he swiftly responded telling liverpoolfc.tv, “I will try to be very clear because I would like to talk about the next games and Sunderland. Everybody has been talking and it is clear some newspapers and journalists – and all our supporters know this – blame me for everything: global warming; rises in petrol prices; everything.
“In this case, I want to be clear: since I talked with Martin O’Neill in April, I didn’t talk with anyone else at Aston Villa. All the talks have been between Rick Parry and the owner and chief executive of Aston Villa – and they have been pretty good.
“If someone wants to talk about Barry in the future, they will have to talk to the owner or chief executive of Aston Villa, or Rick Parry. I was not doing to talks about Barry; I was not doing to talks about Alonso and Arsenal.”
The move is likely to strain relations between the manager and owners even further.
