So, confidence is low, camaradery is needed, your younger players need you to pick them up and reassure them all is well in the camp...

So what does William Gallas do on his personal website www.iamalippytwat.com, this is what he does, thats what: "Our young players have many qualities but you can't expect 19-year-olds to perform consistently throughout a long season, we have to recruit reputable players ... around us all the teams are recruiting but what is planned to compensate for the departure of Titi Aliadiere? I will have a discussion with Arsene Wenger and the board members to find out the objectives of the club this season and what they wish to set up to build an even more competitive team.

Rob to Ashburton...
With Real Madrid now sweet on Jose Antonio, there's talk of a swap deal with the Brazilian Robinho, a one time target for Sir Wenger. There is a discrepancy in the two valuations, with Real Madrid offering £5m, and le Boss hanging on for nearer £10m, Robinho would probably make the difference if the rumours are true. Which they're probably not...
