Behind The Scenes

So Mr Gallas has lost his captaincy and place in the team as a result of telling tales out of school.

Good decision I would say.

Despite the fact that, if we are honest, most of us are probably secretly fascinated with knowing what goes on behind closed doors, our sense of moral reasoning usually tells us that we all have a right to a degree of privacy.

Breaching that right is only really justified in a whistle-blowing situation in my humble opinion. And this was not that. If I was Wenger and the other Arsenal players I would feel very betrayed by Gallas' actions.

Of course none of this applies to a behind-the-scenes peek at Leicester City FC ..............

Le Football - Ce N'est Pas Pour Les Wimps

Sulky pants Gallas has got himself in the news again.

This time he is criticising his younger team mates for being - well essentially wimps.

Apparently he is fed up of taking the blame just because he is captain and so has decided it is time to speak out.

This the man who had a major strop at the end of the fateful match with Birmingham last season when Eduardo was injured.

Why has he spoken out now? Well a more cynical person might suggest it is because he has a biography being published in France tomorrow.

I have spoken to my reporter in the field (i.e. my Gooner son) who agrees with me.

Gallas needs a slap.

And Arsenal need a new captain.
