    Maybe the original mistake was giving him the captaincy...

    I have to say that Gallas' feelings look a bit more justified now.

    Under Gallas' captaincy, we came the closest to winning the title since we last won it.

    For all of his shenanigans after that Brum game, it was after the game and didnt cost us that match. Clichy and inept officiating did.

    But the same problems we had that season is the same problems we have now.

    We have made no improvements in the 3 years and in fact imo we are worse.

    Wenger needs to go

    gallas needed to be kicked out and thank god he was. he played for a team with a worse defence than ours so hes not shown any improvement and reason for us to regret it

    Gallas did become a bit of a broken record but I always felt we needed more people with his attitude. Instead he was alienated because he wasn't a Wengerbot and had a voice of his own.

    Having said that, his antics at the end of the Birmingham game (why the fuck is it always them, eh?) were very embarrassing and he dug his own grave from there on.

    their is a fine line between a winning attitude and having an attitude which gallas certainly has. in a team full of cunts like chelsea he had other super cunts to supersede him. whether captain or not at arsenal he was one of the few senior players in the team, a rare chance to really show what a mature man he may have been. but he wasn't, he was just a knob in decline

    not easy to do, when the team is full of overpaid youngsters who have won nothing to prove themselves except the pampering of a deluded manager. Henry's body language on the pitch in his last years is also testament to that.

    henry was a moody twat even when the team were at the top, being the main man only let him dwell in it. he continued as usual at barca but wasn't indulged as he was in a winning team again.

    if you are mature enough then you wont look for excuses from others to explain your own failings. it's not easy to have the pressure mostly on your shoulders but whether you can carry it or not is a mark of your character. we see gallas' loud and clear.

    henry was never moody with his teammates in the invincible team -- why? because they were winners whether or not he was captain. At barcelona it was understandable that a player of his billing would get annoyed when he was being underused and being subtituted into matches with just minutes to go.

    and, gallas's record prior to joining us was almost impeccable (at chelsea he only took issue with mourihno thinking he could play him as fullback on a regular basis). I remember when we signed him it was deemed a major coup in almost all of football circles.
