Why nasri ignored gallas

The former team-mates did not speak for a year when they played together at the Emirates, and the year-old is refusing to let the grudge drop. The bitterness between the pair originated from a dispute on a team bus with the French squad in , which led to the defender criticising his young compatriot in an autobiography.

Nasri refused to shake hands with Gallas when they lined up against each other for the first time in November at the Emirates, in a game that Spurs went on to win When Manchester United came to the Emirates we had the opportunity to play well ourselves.

When we are at home to teams who come here and keep things tight we have found things more difficult. He grew up in the Gavotte district of Marseilles and he was training at Olympique Marseilles from the age of eight. During those formative years he watched from the curving terraces of the Velodrome as Marseilles conquered Europe under their corrupt owner Bernard Tapie. We all love football in Marseilles and everyone plays it.

The kids play it in the street so it is quite easy to get yourself noticed as a player. What makes a Marseilles player special?

The thing that struck you most about Cantona was his temperament and his impulsive side on the field. This street football I was talking about gives you this ability that you need for the short-passing game. When he was ready to leave Marseilles, Nasri says that Arsenal were not just his first choice, they were his only choice. Arsenal was a perfect place for me to come to.

They had a manager who knew all about me and who also put faith in young players. They have all really come on as players. There is a really strong feeling amongst French players that Arsenal are the ideal club to join. And it all comes down to Gallas putting him in his place when he was a pup, and it only motivated Gallas to do so again today. None of us know exactly what went on, like i say, if Nasri felt he had a good reason fair play to him. No more than that. Gallas said some bad things about Nasri, so why should Nasri have to have anything to do with him.

I also read the papers. But who cares. Oh and you need to employ a Goalkeeper not a clown in pink socks! Maybe in the Wayne Bridge case but thats an extreme. No, this is a job, they get paid and its a part of the job. Wenger is a manager and should know better. He represents the face of the club, show some class.

Precedent: Wayne Bridge and John Terry were embroiled in their own public spat last season.

Arsenal travel to the home of the great rivals seeking a first league win there since September , while Spurs can seal a first league double since Howeve the Gunners did win on their last visit, a Carling Cup clash in September, when Nasri scored twice.

The best known example of a player shunning his team-mate in the pre-match formalities came last season, when Wayne Bridge refused the hand of John Terry after it had been revealed the Chelsea captain had endjoyed a relationship with the mother of Bridge's child.
