Defender hopeful of title challenge
William Gallas has backed Arsenal to prove their critics
wrong this season.
Arsenal have been written off as title hopefuls in some quarters
following the loss of talisman Thierry Henry.
However, Gallas is confident they have learned from the mistakes of
the past and that they can mount a serious title challenge.
"In the past we have relied too much on lovely football to see us
through," Gallas told The Sun.
"But we have learned from last season. Sometimes you have to fight
to achieve success.
"Some people have claimed this club is on a downward spiral. But
there is an enormous determination to put things right.
"Last season we were behind the leaders too early. We can't let
that happen again."
