Anelka is one of our fastest player, but that's the thing with him - he doesn't always use it wisely

Sorry i didn't express it well enough, i don't check what i say so i'm just talking out of my head most of the time only what i can understand. When i meant not fast enough as in, thinking, i think Anelka has weak concentration, when the team are making runs and he gets a pass he takes to long to decide who to pass it to or play through to, if you get what i mean, sorry i need to check what i say more often.

Agreed. He's indecisive on the ball. Brilliant players already have a mental picture of where they want to pass the ball, they're aware of what their next move is even before they receive the ball themselves. With Anelka, his thinking is a bit muddled when in possession. He's almost always unsure about what do to with the ball and takes up too much time in making a decision. The opportunity is lost by then and defenders have scampered back. He's one of the most useless players to have in a counter-attacking situation. Which is a shame really because off the ball he's absolutely terrific and has great positional instincts.

I'd still play him behind Torres for the second leg though. I think Kalou is better suited to that role but he's not 'all there' mentally at the moment, courtesy the situation back in Cote d'Ivoire.

Boom, Sit the fuck down TX!

Hardly.

Essentially, it's a very poor quality photo manipulation, on a very basic pre-school level, that is all.

However, I won't indulge in this further, due to the inevitable 200 MILLION pages of potential bickering.

Yes that's what i mean, Anelka even with his experience with the club still doesn't have the confidence with his decision making, unless he is just generally slow with it. But he has mucked many things up before so that could trigger a reason. Now we've got defence sorted out we may have a chance, we honestly have to hope Lampard and Essien will have this against United, and will actually play well. Also like Ancelotti said this isn't about Torres getting his first goal this is about Chelsea. I would rather have Anelka behind Drogba, i think it will offer more, benayoun behind Torres, could it be both?, might be on to something here.
