Former Arsenal defender, William Gallas has named the Gunners as the flop of the Premier League season.

The Frenchman said he was disappointed with the performances of Arsenal this ongoing campaign.

According to Gallas, Arsenal have dropped in performance compared to the last two seasons.

Arsenal are expected to finish in the second position on the Premier League table after Liverpool were confirmed champions following their 5-1 win against Tottenham last weekend.

Mikel Arteta’s men are in second position ahead of the likes of Manchester City, Newcastle United Chelsea, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa.

Speaking to Prime Casino, Gallas said:
“In the Premier League, Arsenal are my flops of the season! If you compare last season and the one from two years ago with this season, their performance has not been good at all.

“Their performances in the Premier League have not been good enough. I’m sorry, I am still disappointed in them, regardless of the Champions League.

“After those high quality and world class performances against Real Madrid, I wanted more from them in the league.

“I am angry about what happened in the league. I am furious even, because I can’t accept one level of performance in the Champions League and a different level of performance in the Premier League,” he added.

EPL: Sign Osimhen instead of Gyokeres – Ferdinand advises Man United

Rio Ferdinand

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has advised his former club to sign Victor Osimhen instead of Viktor Gyokeres.

The Red Devils are in search of more firepower upfront after an underwhelming campaign.

The duo of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee failed to deliver the goods, with United finishing in a disappointing 15th position on the table.

Ruben Amorim’s side also lost to Tottenham Hotspur in the final of the UEFA Europa League.

Gyokeres, who had an outstanding campaign for Portuguese club Sporting Lisbon, has been linked with a move to Old Trafford.

The forward scored 39 goals and registered eight assists to help Sporting Lisbon clinch the Portuguese League title.

Despite his impressive form in front of goal, Ferdinand believed Osimhen would be a better fit for his old club.

“I think Gyokeres, everyone’s talking about him. Again, I think if I’m looking at the market now and I had to pick him or Osimhen, I’d probably pick Osimhen because of that experience,” the former England international told the Mirror.
