"Oh, Gallas seems to have an argument with Clichy." Ferrari said. He was a little excited. "The two of them seem to have a very intense verbal conflict."
"The two of them seem to have a verbal conflict." Rossi also nodded and said, "Arsène Wenger chose Gallas as Arsenal's captain, but this captain is always controversial."
As the captain, Gallas fiercely criticized the team's 19-year-old striker, Walcott, not long ago, saying that his every move on the field was too easy to guess and that he had not made any progress after so long. His words were fierce and made some Arsenal teammates, especially the young players, unhappy. They thought that Gallas' actions were not in line with his position as the captain.
In addition, the most controversial thing was that when Arsenal was equalized by Birmingham City at the last minute in the Premier League, as the captain, he did not comfort and encourage his players. Instead, he cried silently. Although Wenger once defended him and said that this showed that he cared about the team's victory, this behavior had been seen by many as weak and incompetent.
It was said that within Arsenal, some players despised Gallas and thought that such a weak player was not worthy of being the captain.
Especially the young players, led by Walcott, had a lot of opinions about this. Walcott even said that Gallas was not even one-tenth of Vieira.
Not only that, the Arsenal fans were not very fond of Gallas. They sarcastically said that Gallas was the most cowardly captain in Arsenal's history.

Wenger was on the sidelines and his face was extremely ugly. The team had just lost a goal and the captain of the team had an argument with his own players. This was really f * * * ing.
At this time, although he was very dissatisfied with Clichy's previous low-level mistakes, Wenger was also dissatisfied with Gallas. As the captain of the first team, what he should do at this time was not to blame his teammates, but to encourage and comfort them.
On the other side, seeing that the Arsenal players had an internal conflict, Li Ang almost laughed out loud.
Arsenal's captains were once the role models of the entire Premier League. Adams was known as the iron-blooded captain and was a legend of Arsenal.
After Adams, Wenger favored the French and Arsenal's successive captains were French. Of course, whether it was Vieira or Henry, they were worthy of the captain's armband. However, since the summer of 2005, "selling out the captain" had become a shadow that the Arsenal could not get rid of. Whether it was during the Highbury era or the current Emirates Stadium, "selling out the captain" had become an excellent tradition of Arsenal.
Vieira's transfer to Juventus set the precedent for the "captain leaving the team". The sudden transfer of the French defensive midfielder to Serie A in 2005 was very sudden because Wenger had just blocked Real Madrid's attack on Vieira the year before and the French captain had also pledged his loyalty to Arsenal. However, a year later, he suddenly announced that he would join Juventus. In 2005, the economic benefits of selling a 29-year-old player for 20 million euros were not bad, but considering the competitive factors and the subsequent turmoil at Arsenal, the Gunners could only describe the deal as a heavy loss.
After Vieira left, another French star player, Henry, took over the captain's armband left behind by Vieira. Although Arsenal's results during his time as captain were not as good as under Vieira, Henry was still considered a great captain.
However, Henry was also disheartened because he could not see any hope of winning the Champions League at Arsenal. He then transferred to join one of the two giants of the Spanish Super League, Barcelona.

There was a more magical law about the transfer and departure of the Arsenal team captain. For all the teams that the former Arsenal team captain joined, at the end of the season, the manager of the team left. In the summer of 2005, the former Arsenal team captain, the French international player, Vieira, joined Juventus. The following year, the Juventus manager, Fabio Capello left. In the summer of 2007, the former Arsenal team captain, the French striker, Henry joined Barcelona. The following year, the Barcelona manager, Rijkaard left.
Well, of course, at this time, Rijkaard was still the manager of Barcelona. However, looking at Barcelona's situation this season, Rijkaard could not avoid the direction of history and would be dismissed.
Back to the topic, after Henry left, Gallas, the French player, was appointed as the captain of Arsenal by Wenger. He was known as the third French captain under Wenger's tenure.
However, it was clear that this captain was far inferior to the previous two French compatriots.
Li Ang was almost amused by the "conflict" between Gallas and Clichy. Then, he came up with an idea.
Li Ang walked to the sidelines and conveyed an order to his players: attack the right wing where Clichy was!
*****
When the game resumed, Inter Milan, who was leading by one point, was very calm and steady. On the other hand, Arsenal, who had lost the ball early, appeared to be a little anxious.
Inter Milan's calmness did not mean that they were playing in a dull manner. On the contrary, Inter Milan began to put pressure on Arsenal.
Inter Milan began to press hard, which they were best at. Under the sudden force of Inter Milan, the somewhat impatient Arsenal was not used to it for a while. The impatient Arsenal did not know how to play.
Li Ang's Inter Milan was the team that was best at seizing opportunities in today's football. They launched a wave of attacks and began to besiege Arsenal's goal at one point.
Five minutes later, Inter Milan played a beautiful combination in the front field. The quicksilver passes between the players made Arsenal exhausted.
Arshavin suddenly passed the ball in the opposite direction on the edge of the penalty area. Milito pulled out from the penalty area to receive it. With his back to the goal, he controlled the ball steadily. Under the two-man team, he successfully passed the ball out. Mata faced the ball and beautifully tipped the ball.
After Adriano squeezed Clichy away, he stopped the ball with his chest and directly volleyed the ball in the air!
The shot was powerful and eventually hit the side netting, which shocked the Arsenal fans into a cold sweat.
The camera caught the Arsenal captain, Gallas, seemed to be shouting at Clichy again, as if blaming Clichy for not being able to keep up with Adriano's footsteps.
Yes, Gallas was angry. He thought that Clichy was not able to stop Adriano's shot. In short, Gallas was very dissatisfied with the performance of his French compatriot today.
Clichy, who was angrily rebuked again, was silent this time. He did not retort, but his expression was quite embarrassed.
Of course, he wanted to stop Adriano from shooting. However, after Adriano started, Clichy just got close to him and was directly pushed away as if he had hit a wall. In terms of physical confrontation, he was no match for Adriano!
On the sidelines, the Inter Milan manager, Li Ang, who saw this scene, had an indescribable smile on his face.
