Gallas Throws Toys Out Of Pram
In a desperate bid to escape from the breadline of £70,000 a week and join a club which could afford him a salary he could live on, Chelsea claim William Gallas threatened to score an own goal if he was selected for the team.
Gallas, who joined Arsenal on deadline day last Thursday, is claimed to have threatened if he was forced to play, or if he was disciplined and financially punished for his breach of the rules, he would score an own goal, get himself sent off, or make deliberate mistakes according to an official Chelsea statement.
This is the sort of petulant behaviour you would expect from a child who didn’t want to play on the same team as someone else in the playground at lunch time, not a seasoned international closing in on his 30th birthday.
Gallas’ return to Stamford Bridge with new club Arsenal on the 10 December should make for compulsive viewing.
