Arsenals Wenger offers axed Gallas a shock recall
November 24th, 2008 - 2:45 pm ICT by ANI ( Leave a comment )
London, Nov.24 (ANI): Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger has said that he may recall axed skipper William Gallas if he apologises to his team-mates.
Defender Gallas was stripped of the captaincy and left out of Saturdays defeat at Manchester City.
However, the Daily Express quoted Wenger as saying: Cesc Fabregas will be available and maybe Gallas. We can change a captain without making a political issue. Of course, he has a future here but the less we talk the better.
Gallas is likely to have to say sorry to the whole squad before training this morning before Wenger reinstates him a stipulation that could well represent far too large a helping of humble pie for the deposed club captain.
But Arsenal legend Nigel Winterburn has pleaded with Gallas to back down.
He said: If Gallas is to remain at the club, he has got to apologise. (ANI)
