Gallas motivated against Chelski

BBC SPORT : Gallas 'issued own-goal threat'

If you compare the way Chelsea have 'handled' Gallas' departure with the way Arsenal have handled Cole's departure... well there is no comparison. Gallas never met with any other clubs, he simply wanted to leave after having come to the end of the road at Chelsea. What does he get in return? Once he's left Chelsea have started hurling accusations at him. Very professional. I don't care if he did threaten to score an own goal. The club shouldn't make that public, it's a total lack of class. Or as Gallas put it:

"All this is very, very petty on behalf of Chelsea. But at the same time, coming on behalf of its new leaders, that does not surprise me. Even if Chelsea has much money, its new leaders lack class."

Now compare that with Arsenal who have wish Cole the best of luck after his move to our rivals. Yes they've treated Cole with respect even though he's been totally disrespectful to the club. He spoke to Chelsea while under contract. He has stirred up bad feeling and has now tried to cash in on it in his new book.

Cole and Chelsea are well suited for eachother. Meantime Gallas will surely be very well motivated to get one over on his old club.
