Kolo has had his chance, if he was going to be Captain it would have happened by now. If a man can not make the side, he can not captain it.Good choice although I think Kolo would have been a better choice
Roy Keane was not caught breaking manager curfew and smoking a crafty dart by the papers either. Roy Keane did not give the press an open invitation to the Arsenal dressing room by leaking comments to the media. Roy Keane never once threatened to score an own goal if he did not get his own way.The whole thing has been blown out of preportion. Roy Keane slated Man U a good few times but he stayed on as captain. Gallas is only speaking the truth
Gallas is as slow as sh*te. If you saw the Kiev game you'd know what I mean, at one stage he showed Bangoura far too much space and almost gifted them the lead.I understand the whole big deal about Gallas going off on one about the dressing room unrest, what I really can't understand is the cigarette incident. Big woop he smoked one cigarette on the way out of a nightclub and all of a sudden he's no longer supposed to be a human being. Footballers are humans, even they enjoy the odd cigarette you know. Just ask Joey Barton. Infact why don't you ask Fowler as well?
say what?Being slow is nothing to do with pace.
So you're saying that when teams are losing they can't go out on a nightout? As far as I'm concerned as long as they aren't battered and perform at training, there's no problem. I think Gallas can be a bit of an arsewipe, but I think the flak for that incident is a little o.t.t.With Gallas' attacking runs upfield (that have proved fruitful) leaving the backline exposed recently, I do.
But I suppose your definition of long distance may be different to mine. I smoke when I'm out for the evening with friends/family and am quite sure I could not run the (upwards of) 6000m players run in a game.
All of this discussion also does not mention the fact that Gallas was out at a niteclub with Chelsea players during a week when his football club was feeling the effects of some shocking losses. I was more shocked to see that kind of 'late-night' picture when he was responsible for a number of Arsene's defensive frailties.
Perhaps the fact I support the club Gallas tried to Captain makes me a little more critical than the average punter? After Arsenal's performances so far this season I couldn't just shrug and laugh any more.
Captain Fabtastic is a much better option.
