Gallas

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

Ah yes.

 

Would this factor would be the one that caused him to leave Chelsea under a cloud after refusing to play at full-back, and agitating for a move while ostracising himself from his team-mates, his manager and the fans, amidst claims that he threatened to score an own goal if forced to play another game for Chelsea.

 

That factor?

 

You're doing a marvellous job selling this one in.

 

Did I advocate signing him to play at full back exclusively?

 

And the "own goal" thing was taken from a statement issued by Chelsea, which was then denied.

 

But if you want to take Kenyon's word for it, go for it.

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

He's a whinging, sulking cunt. Was the same when he was at the rent boys, it's why they got rid, and Arsenal might do the same. His behaviour versus Birmingham last season was ridiculous and if that was a Liverpool player, I'd be demaning his head!

Besides, we have better centre halves than him.

 

We have argubly ONE better centre half.

He did also refuse to sign a new contract citing money issues, then didn't turn up at a pre-season tour because he was "tired".

 

Sounds ace, doesn't he?

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

I wouldn't say he's a winner at all. He's a massive, massive cry baby with no plus points outside of his footballing ability. We don't need him or anything that he'd bring with him.

 

 

And that matters because?

 

Said this before, I'll say it again

 

I couldn't give a shite if Joseph Stalin played up front for us, as long as he banged them in

 

Then again, I also admitted that I'd love Ronaldo at Liverpool, which was also shot down because of his percived cuntishness and attitude.

 

"sigh"

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

I think it's making them take Degen that's bumping the price up.

 

That's what was implied mate

 

Do keep up

[Fugitive]

I don't think he's that good but even more importantly, he's French.

 

No thanks.

Maybe it's me and my simple mind

 

Is he better than what we currently have?

 

Yes

 

Could surrounding him with big personalities who want to win negate the possibility of him having any issues similar to those he is having at Arsenal?

 

Yes

 

Could it be possibly done on the cheap?

 

Yes

 

Should we have a look at the possibility of maybe signing said player?

 

Yes

[Fugitive]

Is he better than what we currently have?

 

Yes

 

 

I don't think he is better than Carragher, Skrtel or Agger.

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

I don't think he is better than Carragher, Skrtel or Agger.

 

I think defensively he's streets ahead of Agger, and still considerably better than Skrtel.

[Guest Ulysses Everett McGill]

It matters, Andy, because look at the absolute disgrace Arsenal are at the moment? And their captain does what to alleviate that? Cry in the middle of the pitch when the chips are down, and then slag off the rest of the team.

 

Not even Roy Keane got away with pulling that shit, and he's a man who actually commands respect from his team mates.

 

I agree he'd come in and be our second best centre half, but we just don't need his baggage. Besides, I think we've all had enough of sulking, egomanical French players to last us a lifetime.

I know what you are saying, and if the transfer fee was anything more than miniscule then I wouldn't even be asking the question.

 

I just think if it was only going to cost a few million it would be a gamble worth taking, one that if it doesnt work out won't cost us a fortune.

 

You know by now my attitude towards football, very little sentiment at all, whilst it's great that not only is Torres world class but he's also fluffy and cuddly and sponsors kids in Africa, it wouldn't matter one iota if his attitude was aloof and he was a bit of a cunt, actually I might even like him more if he was.

 

Footballers don't necessarily have to be nice people.

 

Oh, and as of this moment, i'm starting a campaign to get egomanical into the Oxford Dictionary

You'd have more chance with egomaniacal, I think.

 

And I find it odd that you'd like Torres more if he was a cunt.

 

That says a lot about you.

[Carra_is_legend]

Gallas has struggled for form this season as its pretty obvious his heart or heaad is not with Arsenal.

 

I know Agbonolhor (whatever his name is) is fast but i always thought Gallas was fast as well but the Villa lad left him for dead.

 

When he left Chelsea i thought he would be perfect for us but now i dont think so, although if he was willing to play full back i would have him at left back in a shot.

 

If he has really lost his pace, I can't see him being much useful in a full back position.

[Skidfingers McGonical]

I can totally see where UEM is coming from on this one. I think he would be a good defensive player to have and would be a better left back than Dossena and good cover for both Fabio and Bob as well as Carra and Co. I think a lot of people are ignoring the arguement put forward by UEM, and just posting shite for the sake of posting shite. If it happened I would only be sceptical if he didn't change his attitude or was allowed to be the biggest personality in the dressing room.

[silverlining]

He's still about twice as quick as Aurelio. But that's besides the point.

Aye. If Gerrard ever did that, I would want to shoot the fucker right in the middle of the pitch. You win and lose as a team.

 

Gallas is a good player - atleast he was. But he is a big fucking cry baby. I would rather give Sami a 1 year contract extension - his attitude is spot on and always does a decent job whenever played.

[Fugitive]

And I find it odd that you'd like Torres more if he was a cunt.

 

I feel the same about Mother Teresa, too much of a goody two-sandals in my opinion.

 

Pol Pot on the other hand, there was a Man who you could trust.

What's with the aggression, man?

There was nothing aggressive in that post. Man.

He liked red too

[hamstrung]

*edit - I'll just read the thread first next time*

[Roy Hobbs]

Why the fuck are we talking about bringing in a defender like Gallas? A whinging, moaning wanker that demands to play central. Whose spot is he going to take?

 

Gallas FFS!!!!!!

[silverlining]

Two/three years ago I'd have expected 20 posts with the same sarcastic answer to that bit. Not naming a defender either.

 

Please expound

It must be something to do with that darned armband

Oh, he's talking about Gerrard. Our scouse captain, one of our greatest ever players, and possibly the best midfielder in the world.

 

Of course. Silly me.

[05 Milan]

I hate him. No thanks.
