Gallas has been awful this season

Post by ChildrensCardGames »

If it wasn't for Vermaelen we'd be screwed. Gallas was partially to blame for the 1st goal for not winning the header off someone who is 5ft 8. There was 1 incident where he got completely turned upside own and where was he for the 2nd goal? This isn't a knee jerk reaction if you look at how many goals we have given away they seem to come from Gallas' errors. I first noticed it at home to everton where he slacked off to Saha's goal and it has been a continuous trend and yet everyone praises the guy.

At home against Everton was yesterday, if you missed it ..... We played them away when Saha scored and it as already 6-0 .. !!

Gallas has been immense this season - some might say he has found a new lease of life since being stripped of the captaincy ...

Watch a few more games and not just the shite highlights on MOTD then come back with some credible evidence ...

A year ago i didnt want Gallas to wear the shirt ever again, and I think Wenger was ready to let him go in Januart before Johan got injured.

Since then, he has been superb, he has played like a captain more than he ever did when he had the armband - and has saved us on numerous occassions. He can be weak in the air, but his all-round game more than warrants his place in the side.

maybe you should stop watching motd as it is a piss poor way of judging players. gallas and vermaelen have been rocks in our defence, both of them. without gallas then I don't know how our defence would survive.

Its our shocking goalkeeper and lack of help for our fullbacks that has been poor this season, not our center backs.

I cant recall a post from CCG that makes any sense at all.

Gallas has played well all season. Very solid and plays the ball well out of defence, as does TV, thats been a big part of out success this season IMO.

Gallas as been immense this season, he has a fantastic ability to read the game well before anyone else, this was shown against Villa when he fucked Abonglahor out of the game ever single ball to his feet Gallas intercepted. He really is a fantastic defender

Blimey, what can I add to what's already been posted..?? :?

Gallas is playing his best football since he joined us, and it's a good job also, because he's playing in front of the worse goalkeepers that we have ever had, and that makes his form even more impressive imo.
