LA Galaxy boss Ruud Gullit blasted by Beckham's team mate
Published 00:00 22/07/08 By
David Beckham's LA Galaxy are embroiled in a public spat after Abel Xavier launched an attack on boss Ruud Gullit.
Ex-Portugal defender Xavier was bombed out of the MLS side to make way for new signing Eduardo Dominguez.
Xavier, 35, counts Becks as a close pal - but says former Chelsea manager Gullit forced him out of the California club. Xavier fumed: "He used language that was not normal and he was very arrogant.
"He was a great player but he is not a great coach. I demand respect.
"Gullit had similar problems when he was at Chelsea and all the players at Galaxy have the same opinion."
Dutchman Gullit had claimed Xavier was a "bad apple".
