Arsenal are the 'flops of the season'! Ex-Gunners defender tears into Mikel Arteta's side for disappointing year - and doesn't want to hear 'excuses' of injuries

Gallas, who played for Arsenal between 2006-10, insists his former side have not been good enough and that he is "disappointed" with their efforts, despite their progression to the Champions League semi-finals.

Gallas told Prime Casino: "In the Premier League, Arsenal are my flops of the season. If you compare last season and the one two years ago with this season, their performance has not been good at all. I’m sorry, I’m 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."

The Gunners have been missing Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus for long spells of the campaign, falling behind newly-crowned champions Liverpool. Gallas is "furious" about their domestic efforts and says they have one level of performance in the Premier League and another in the Champions League.

The Gunners take on Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday, but much of their focus will be on the second leg of their European semi-final against PSG on Wednesday. They trail the tie 1-0.
