EPL: I’m disapointed – Gallas names Arsenal flop of the season

Published

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.

Chelsea are now mathematically out of the Premier League title race.

This follows their 3-0 drubbing in the hands of Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday night.

Liam Rosenior’s men came into the match with 48 points, looking to keep pace with the teams in front of them.

However, Beto opened the scoring for the hosts in the first half, before adding a second after the break.

Chelsea barely threatened Everton and looked flat for most of the game, before Iliman Ndiaye added a third.

The result means the Blues cannot match the 70 points that league leaders Arsenal currently have with seven matches left.

Champions Liverpool are also on the verge of being mathematically ruled out, as they have 49 points.
