Badboy 1,526 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Avram Grant: I never wanted Anelka Sacked Chelsea manager Avram Grant has revealed he never wanted to sign Nicolas Anelka. The Frenchman, 29, became the world's most expensive player when the Blues paid Bolton Wanderers £15 million for his services last January. Anelka currently leads the Premier League scoring charts with 13 goals, 12 more than he scored during the 2007-08 season for Chelsea. Grant, sacked by Chelsea after defeat to Manchester United in the final of the Champions League, singled out Anelka for criticism after the striker initially refused to take a penalty – his saved spot-kick ultimately handing United the trophy and sealing Grant's fate. "Some of the players there [at Chelsea] have problems that you can't find at a children's team," Grant told Israeli TV. "I didn't really need Anelka last season and told him so. He is a good player but needs to have more passion." Grant, who has been linked with the managerial vacancy at Sunderland, is adamant he has not been given the recognition he deserves for saving Chelsea's season after Jose Mourinho left the club in September 2007. "When I came to Chelsea the team was in bad situation - I improved it. The players and I together took a team on the way down to a historical moment and a great season," he added.

Drogba11CFC 108 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 He's only saying that because Anelka's scoring for Scolari and never did for him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 and that is why, because Scolari knows that you have to set a striker in the strikers postion not on the wing or midfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drogba11CFC 108 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Please tell me that wasn't serious... "Avram" and "Successful" should not be used in the same sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Meh, couldn't care less. I don't like the guy but I have some respect for him, since he got us to the final of the Champions League for the first time in our history. Still, should keep his mouth shut.

misschief 24 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 This bloke's got some front. Does he honestly think it makes him sound less clueless by saying he told Anelka he didnt need him? Surely the fact that Anelka is scoring this season shows him something? He'll be out of work a lot longer with this sort of statement. Total dick.
