There's talk of Arsenal
defender William Gallas being upset France coach Raymond Domenech
has made Manchester United
fullback Patrick Evra his World Cup captain.
The Daily Mail says Gallas is refusing to speak to the
media at the World Cup.
The Arsenal player was due to
meet reporters at the French press center in Knysna on Tuesday but
chose not to come.
Team spokesman Francois Manardo says "William has decided not to
speak to the media for the duration of the World Cup," without
elaborating.
Gallas is set to start against Uruguay in France's opening World
Cup game on Friday.
Some French media have speculated that Gallas is angry at
Domenech's decision to make Evra captain now that former leader
Thierry Henry is on the bench.
