[b]William Gallas has hinted he wants to leave Arsenal
after criticising Arsene Wenger's transfer policy and questioning
the club's ambition.
The French defender claims several Gunners players are unhappy
following the departure of Thierry Henry to Barcelona and insists
Wenger's policy of buying young players will not deliver
trophies.
And he revealed he plans to hold talks with the board when he
returns for pre-season training to discuss his own future after
becoming frustrated at Arsenal's failure to compete with title
contenders Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool.
He told his own website: "What is sure, it is that several players
are questioning the club's future.
"Around us, all the teams are recruiting but what is planned to
compensate for the departure of Titi Henry?
"I am not at Arsenal to play for third place. It is necessary to
recruit players of reputation because the young players have many
qualities but the season is very long.
"The young players are thirsty for victories but Arsenal must
obtain results to gain titles. If not, one will have to change
policy and do the same as the other teams: recruit with more
means.
"I will have a discussion with Arsene Wenger and board members to
know the objectives of the club this season and what they wish to
set up to build an even more competitive team."
And despite only joining Arsenal from Chelsea last season, Gallas
indicated he may seek a move if Wenger cannot convince him the club
are moving forward.
He added: "Today I am at Arsenal but I do not know what can occur
tomorrow.
"All happens so quickly in the world of football."[/b]
he is the source of all trouble
