15 million pounds.
Ridiculous.
good value imo.
Wow that was nearly funny in 2003.Quote:

Doubt he would be , I think Veron would take that particular accolade
Good player. Hopefully he'll have some cop on, like he did at Bolton, and just play football. They don't call him Le Sulk for nothing. Good cover for Drogba during the ACN and hopefully he'll do enough to stay ahead of Sheva after that. He won't be ahead of Drogba for awhile yet.
Great business for Bolton by almost doubling their outlay on him but they will miss him big time.
Anelka is a proven goalscorer so good business by both clubs IMO. Don't think he's the childish prat of some years ago so if he has matured he could have a fine career at Chelsea.
I remember while at Man City he complained that he'd never got a chance at a big club, despite having played for Arsenal, Real Madrid, Liverpool and PSG.
I do think his attitude has changed in recent years and I look forward to seeing him in a blue shirt. I just hope he keeps his head straight.
Good player and if he gets the service he'll always score goals. When you consider Carrick went for around 16/17 million it doesn't seem that much of an outlay.
