Anelka so sick he quit Arsenal
-
NICOLAS ANELKA has finally admitted he should never have left Arsenal.
The Bolton striker quit Gunners in 1999 for a move to Real Madrid.
But he went from the Bernabeu to Paris St Germain, Liverpool, Manchester City and Fenerbahce before landing at the Reebok 15 months ago.
Bolton face Manchester United today marooned in the bottom three — 22 points behind leaders Arsenal.
And Anelka, 28, admitted: If you look now at the situation Arsenal are in and look at where I am, then you could say maybe I should have stayed.
Of course, I would like to play in that team. Which striker wouldnÂ’t like to be part of a team that plays such amazing football?
But the way they are playing, whoÂ’s to say IÂ’d even get in that team?
With Bolton struggling, new boss Gary Megson is already bracing himself for AnelkaÂ’s NEXT move.
Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are all weighing up a January swoop.
Megson said: We have been doing a lot of work watching players during the international break.
If Nic’s here for a long time then great — and I hope he is.
If not, weÂ’ve got to make sure that when he leaves it makes us stronger.
Red Devils boss Alex Ferguson admits he has admired the hitman for a while.
Fergie said: We have tried to buy Anelka several times.
You always assess players with pace and ability to score and he comes into that category. -

There is no doubting his scoring ability and skills.
The problem,i guess is his attitude and ego. -

anelka quit arsenal back then because he was young and naive. He wanted to experience new life.
I bet if you were an epl footballer, you would also want to ply your trade at spain or italy sometime in your career.
Of course, there are other reasons like your teammates/managers dont like you blah blah that will cause a player to quit. -

im believe he would have enjoyed his ''off de pitch'' stay at Madrid, PSG, Fenerbache. -

no lah, anelka left before henry.Originally posted by corebooster:Henry was already at Arsenal when Anelka joined.

back then, we sell anelka for club record to RM n getting sukor in exchange. henry was also bought at juventus.
but sukor cannot do well in arsenal, so wenger no choice but transform winger henry into striker. -
Spurs can try buyin him
Then they can have an attitude problem strike force of Anelka - Berbatov -
Think he regrate leaving Arsenal, or maybe not.
-
he got big ego and he asking for alot of money
-
Although Wenger has made some big-money signings for Arsenal his net spending record compares favourably with that of some other leading Premiership clubs; according to Peter Hill-Wood, Arsenal chairman, "Arsène's basically spent, since he's been with us, £4m to £5m a year net."[15] A notable example of this ability was the purchase of Nicolas Anelka from Paris St Germain for only £500,000 and his subsequent sale to Real Madrid just two years later for £22.3m. The money was used to buy three players — Thierry Henry, Robert Pirès and Sylvain Wiltord, who all played a significant role in the Double of 2001-02 and the league title win of 2003-04.
