Maybe Gerrard doesn't feel like the players coming through are ready enough.
Can't Purslow be asked about this at supporter meetings? The continuity thing and possible discarding of it cos of being too starry-eyed by the newly hired manager and his entourage is...a little concerning.
Where the CEO has previously made a thing about implementing a Villa way of playing/being coached, it seems fair to ask him if that approach is still in place.
I wonder who his replacement will come from?
