Many keen followers of the Premiership slammed William
Gallas' sulking last season as Arsenal's title bid faded towards
the end of last season.
The versatile 30-year-old, a former Chelsea man,
appeared to lose the plot on a couple of occasions earlier this
year as the Gunners' season started to unravel.
Gallas, a relative veteran in Arsene Wenger's young side,
challenged Manchester United's Nani harshly one week and further
smeared an already dark day for Arsenal the next, moaning and
weeping at the final whistle after a topsy-turvy 2-2 draw with
lowly Birmingham.
The Blues contest was, of course, the game during which
Eduardo da Silva suffered horrific injuries, bringing Gallas'
attitude intosharp focus during a testing time.
Now, though, Gallas has admitted that his approach to
the Emirates captaincy was somewhat lacking and has vowed to
improve his leadership approach next term.
"You know, I learned a lot," he admitted to the
Evening Standard. "You want to be the best captain, to
give good advice to your players.
"But sometimes you can also make mistakes.
"This season, I'm sure I'm ready to change my ways in
order to speak to the players. I know what I'm going to do."
"We have to win something because the trophies are so
important at the end of the season."
i certainly feel thats its time to change a
skipper. maybe someone like toure
