Arsenal defender William Gallas has stoked the fires prior to this weekend's crucial Premiership clash between the Gunners and Chelsea, insisting that he is disappointed with his former club especially Peter Kenyon.
Gallas wrote: "Milan were knocking on my door. An irony really, this prestigious Italian team were offering me a salary higher than that which I was asking of Chelsea.
"Straightaway, I was seduced. Not because of the euros but because of the faith a club has in you, the value they put on you.
"The club (Chelsea) came back to me and said: 'Weâll offer you a new contract with a rise but not as much as youâre asking'. Peter Kenyon, the chief executive, was against satisfying my demands. He made our life hell.
"'I donât think either the owners or Kenyon were aware of my contacts with Milan. We let them know and told them of the offer, which was superior to their own and what I was demanding of Chelsea. They wouldnât stump up.
"Chelsea said, for their part, that they wanted to keep me and their offer was still open. No one knows how laughable their offer was and what I deserved."
