William Gallas has ignored the struggles of Manchester United and Tottenham to name a surprise team as his Premier League flops of the season.

On the domestic front it has been a season of strife, bitterness and calamity for both United and Spurs who are languishing embarrassingly close to the bottom three.

Indeed, were it not for the ineptitude of Southampton, Leicester and Ipswich then two Premier League stalwarts would have been fighting to stave off relegation.

Their campaigns, however, could still end up with a Europa League sliver lining after both clubs won the first legs of their semi finals last night.

It was a different story for Arsenal, however, who now face a mountain to climb after they were fortunate to escape from their game against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday with just a one-goal defeat.

Having failed to keep pace with runaway title-winners Liverpool and capitalise on the failures of Manchester City and Chelsea, Gallas cannot look past Mikel Arteta’s men for the unwanted moniker of this season’s biggest disappointments.

‘In the Premier League, Arsenal are my flops of the season!’ the former Arsenal captain told Prime Casino. 

‘If you compare last season and the one from two years ago with this season, their performance has not been good at all.

‘Their performances in the Premier League have not been good enough. 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.’

He added: ‘I’m angry about what happened in the league. I’m furious even, because I can’t accept one level of performance in the Champions League and a different level of performance in the Premier League from this group of players.

‘We all know that it’s difficult to be consistent in the Premier League, but that is what you have to do if you want to become the champions.

‘You have to show up in every game. I’m disappointed because Arsenal didn’t do that this season and I tipped them to win the title in August.

‘They had a great opportunity to become champions this season, and they let it go without a fight. That’s frustrating and difficult for me to understand.

‘Yes, you can say that they had some injury problems, but I don’t like excuses.’
