Tottenham Hotspur defender William Gallas believes that the public are beginning to see 'the real Samir Nasri'.
The former teammates have been involved in a high-profile war of words ever since the now-Manchester City midfielder allegedly refused to give up his seat to Thierry Henry on the France team bus at Euro 2008.
Nasri is reportedly facing a two-year ban from international football following an incident in which the 25-year-old swore and challenged a journalist to a fight following his country's 2-0 defeat to Spain last weekend.
Gallas, who is said to be a transfer target of West Ham United, told France Football: "People have really learned for themselves who Samir Nasri truly is.
"There was a match with Arsenal in Rome and a serious discussion in the changing room at the end of the match. He lost a ball, I showed my disappointment, and he called me a 'son of a whore'."
Gallas has been capped 84 times at senior international level - 49 more than Nasri.
