William Gallas today showed that he is an expert of lying through his teeth after saying that he is "ready to fill in at left back, or any position Arsenal need".

Now, shoot me if I'm wrong here, but didn't he say he wanted to leave Chelsea because he was fed-up of being a utility man and only wanted to play centreback?

Edit: I thought I'd add in the Gravesen interview too, because its rather comical.

"Capello arrived and told me in a very arrogant manner - without having seen me play - that he didn't want me. He is not a nice guy. He did not even give me an opportunity. He didn't even know my name. He was arrogant and selfish. Mine wasn't the only name he couldn't remember. He referred to goalkeeper Iker Casillas as Bobo, which is the name of a former keeper who had already left the club.

The former Everton man is often labelled as a defensive midfielder and Gravesen is baffled why Real also thought that was the case.

"I don't know what they saw in me but I am not a defensive midfielder - at least I don't see myself that way. They should have signed Carsley who used to play behind me at Everton - but I'm happy they made the mistake."

I've always said they signed the wrong player. Real really wanted Carsley and they got mixed up because they look so similar. This just confirms it!

Edit #2: New News today!

Juventus drew their first game in Serie B to 10-man Rimini, with this being the pick of the action

"Adrian Ricchiuti seized on a misunderstanding between Jean-Alain Boumsong and Robert Kovac and fired past World Cup winning goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon."

I bet Newcastle are missing him already.
