Kolo Touré and William Gallas - Will one of them sit next season?

Wenger has already said that he needs a defensive player that can deal with aerial balls and more importantly winning the second ball. I see some are suggesting defenders such as Naldo, Mertesacker, Kompany and Albiol that could fit into this position but does this mean people want to break up the Toure and Gallas partnership and if so which one of them to sit?

he seems to have an ego :D now I don't remember the incidents/quotes but he is egoistical (if thats a word)
Both are quality, but one has the potential of becoming an Arsenal legend, whille the other is a fuked up egoistic freak.

If Gallas was to leave, I'd have no problems with that. If he stays he must be stripped of the captaincy.

I'd play Kolo all the way if we were to bring in an "aerial" defender.
I doubt either is going to get benched, rather we'll probably have a rotation going on at the back or AW will sign a CB who doesn't mind being used as a tactical substitute.
He can't play both. We must not forget that part of the reason why we have such a poor defensive record compared to ManU and Chelsea, is because of our poor central defense. Wenger must have the balls to drop one or the other. I personally don't care which one. Toure's sqrewed up too much the last two seasons himself, and Gallas is a big wuss.

Neither Sagna or Clichy will be dropped to accomodate these two. If Sagna or Clichy are injured, then their replacements will come in. Toure is horrid at right back.
Toure is gold wherever he plays.
Toure seriously needs get back to what he was in previous seasons, I dunno if he was carrying an injury or something, but he was crap after the ACN.

I've noticed every time him and Eboue play for their country they come back fvcking shitty. Not saying anything offensive to Ivory Coast but its becoming a pattern.

Eboue had his breakout season in 05/06 then played at the WC and came back a shell of himself.

Toure plays well, but when he comes back from international duty he has these small lapses in concentration.
