William Gallas was a vital member of the Chelsea squad for five years, but he never appeared settled at Stamford Bridge.
Always concerned about being played out of position at left-back rather than in his preferred position in the centre, there was constant speculation about his future with foreign newspapers quoting him on his desire to move on.
He finally got his move away on transfer deadline day when swapping clubs with another wantaway star, Arsenal’s Ashley Cole. He had made it clear that he would not sign a new contract.
