Arsenal captain’s outburst on younger teammates gets him in trouble

Panama Star LONDON. William Gallas faces a fight to hold onto the Arsenal captaincy after the France defender came under-fire for his shock blast at his young team-mates.

Gallas lifted the lid on the simmering discontent in the Arsenal dressing room in a candid interview on Thursday.

He accused the club's youngsters of lacking the stomach to fight for the Premier League title and claimed he had to separate arguing team-mates during half-time of his side's 4-4 draw against Tottenham.
