Gallas hits at Nasri

William Gallas has slammed former Arsenal team-mate Samir Nasri, claiming the midfielder's outburst at a journalist following France's Euro 2012 exit has revealed his true character.

The French pair have been involved in a long-running war of words since the 25-year-old allegedly refused to give up his seat for legendary striker Thierry Henry on Les Bleus' team bus at Euro 2008.

Gallas reportedly accused his compatriot of a lack of respect and the players are believed not to have spoken during their time together in north London.

And now, following Nasri's angry tirade in which he offered to fight a reporter after his side's Euro 2012 quarter-final loss, the Tottenham stopper insists observers will sympathise with his position.
