Why, Arsene, why?
Actually I can think of a couple of reasons. I mean, he has been on occasion a world-class defender. He is also hugely experienced, more so than perhaps anyone else in the current side. Although that said I’m probably more experienced than most of the current side. Certainly at some things.
Who knows what’s going on at the moment with Gallas. To be stripped of the captaincy and then return to the dressing room - as chastening for him as it would be odd (and perhaps satisfying) for the other players. Some players might respond to this kind of pressure, but I suspect LeGal is not one of them – he’s already decided he’s the best player and Capi in the world, so I doubt being dropped will make him better.
Anyway. I suppose I’d rather have him defending against Kiev than Gavin Hoyte.
