    Anelka has carried this "moody git" or "Sulk" tag for years yet i think it has simply stuck since his younger days when his (i think) brothers who acted as his agent unsettled him and he ended up moving from club to club. I haven't heard any issues with him for years, so is it really a justified comment now?

    He would demand hefty wages yes, but so have Barton et al...

    As for those saying he's past his best.... yes he is, but let's face it, when at his best, he was absolutely world class. If he's 80% of that, then he would still be better than most.

    Also, for all those people questioning players past 30 bear in mind it's a different sport these days. Players in top clubs not only have the very best conditioning, but they also don't play every game due to rotation. Therefore the potential for a top player in any position to go on a few extra years is far more likely than in the old days.
    Superb post Del,

            I blew a lot on vodka and tonic, gambling and fags. Looking back, I think I overdid it on the tonic. - The one and only Stanley Bowles

                                Or we can go for a talented option like Heskey, that miss against Utd was so close!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVNxCbMASWM

                                    That's a great clearance by Heskey tbf to him.

                                        Somebody should do a compendium of Emile Heskey misses and release it in a box set.

                                            That'd be one hell of a big box
