Arsenal legend Adams admits walking out on Wenger training session: Schoolboy stuff

Arsenal legend Tony Adams admits he walked out on an Arsene Wenger training session.

Adams was unhappy with one of the new sessions Wenger had introduced to the players.

He said to The Times: "I walked off in Switzerland at a training camp. I said, 'No that's not for me'. I got so angry. I was newly recovering and didn't have the booze to suppress my feelings.

"Why was I angry? It made me look silly, and I don't like looking silly. It was great for the forwards, there were people all round the place scoring goals and the score was 10-10.

"That's not my game. I want to keep a clean sheet here and I want to have offsides. I'm not having forwards stand behind me. That's schoolboy stuff."
