Arsenal defender and ex-captain William Gallas has hit out at former club Chelsea, claiming that they ‘made his life hell’ during his five years playing for the blues.

The 31 year old has recently been stripped off his captaincy for Arsenal following the controversial public criticism of his team mates. In his autobiography, Gallas said:

“Peter Kenyon, the chief executive, was against satisfying my demands. He made our life hell.

“In May 2006, I told the press of Milan’s interest and my desire to leave the club and of the very attractive offer Milan had proposed.

“This prestigious Italian team were offering me a salary higher than that which I was asking of Chelsea.

“Straight away, I was seduced. Not because of the Euros but of the faith a club gives you, the value they put on you.

“Chelsea said they wanted to keep me and their offer was still open. No one knows how laughable their offer was and what I deserved.

“No one knows at what point the stretched-out hand of Chelsea resembles a beautiful package that has nothing inside.”
