Turning the tables on Mourinho

Word today that William Gallas wants to leave Chelsea for Arsenal represents an interesting turn of events. In fact it represents a turning of tables. Or a turning of the screw. Mourinho may not win this battle. After acting illegally in trying to lure Ashley Cole from Arsenal and insisting on playing William Gallas as a left-back, Mourinho can now only acquire Cole by giving up Gallas. A brilliant move by Gallas's camp after a full year of trying to get him out of a team and a manager he clearly does not like.
