Gallas: I believe Wenger was wrong not to keep me
Former Arsenal defender William Gallas believes that manager Arsène Wenger was wrong not to keep him at the Emirates.
Wenger (or the Board) refused to meet Gallas' wage demands and the French international subsequently left to join rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
Gallas said: "I left Arsenal because we could not agree on a financial level.
"They decided to not make the effort to keep me, it is a choice I respect, and they respected the fact I didn't want the wages they proposed.
"Did Arsène Wenger make a mistake in not keeping me? He made a choice, but indeed I believe he made a mistake.
"In the street, Arsenal's fans asked me why I left. The coach thought I was a finished player. I proved he was wrong."
Still, doesn't excuse the git, good player that he is, for joining that lot from down the road.
