Former Arsenal star William Gallas says he feared he would be TASERED after falling out with ex-team-mate Samir Nasri

WILLIAM GALLAS has revealed his fear after he thought Samir Nasri's friends were planning to taser him.

The pair who played together for both Arsenal and France were far from friends during their playing days.

Gallas and Nasri were known to have a falling out in 2008 when the defender wasn't happy that Nasri sat in Thierry Henry's seat on the French team bus - which Gallas thought lacked respect.

But the 39-year-old has taken their relationship to a new level with his shock revelation.

Speaking to French TV channel RMC in front of a stunned Emmanuel Petit and Franck Le Bouef, he said: "What you need to know is that I was staying at the hotel with my family.

"I was with my cousins for a meal, it was the eve of a gathering of the French team.

"At the end of the meal, I went out of the hotel and some people approached me and wanted to talk with me.

"Initially I did not want to, then I recognised a person who was often with Samir at the Arsenal training ground.

"A few days before, we had had an altercation about comments that he may have made about me, and I did not like them [the comments].

"This person wanted us to talk and wanted me to see Samir, who was in a car further away so I got ready to follow him - but my cousin, who is a policeman, told me in creole not to follow him.

"At the same time, I glanced inside and I saw someone crouched down with a bag. In the bag, there were Tasers. I didn't know why.

"But luckily I was with people that day, because I do not know what could have happened."
