Gallas: FA Cup a priority
William Gallas has revealed the FA Cup has become a priority for
Arsenal after slipping out of the title race.
The talented French stopper, who is still recovering from a thigh
strain, believes The Gunners are too far behind Manchester United
and Chelsea to challenge for the Premiership crown.
The former Chelsea defender now wants Arsenal to go all the way in
Cup and recapture the trophy they claimed in 2002, '03 and
'05.
However, The Gunners' task is a tricky one from the off with
Arsenal taking on an in-form Liverpool in their own back yard on
Saturday.
"It's true the title is a long way off," Gallas told the Daily
Mirror. "Unfortunately we have dropped too many silly points and
we're paying for it with our position.
"It's even more of a shame since Manchester United and Chelsea
dropped off a bit. With three matches a week it's normal these
teams have a tricky spell, even with their big squads.
"We should have taken advantage of it, but we didn't. Now, apart
from the Champions League, the FA Cup has become a big target for
us."
