Bolton boss Gary Megson has insisted that the sale of Nicolas Anelka to Chelsea hasn't cost the Wanderers a chance of staying in the Premiership this season. Bolton's form has dipped since the sale of the French striker.
He said: "Everybody's now saying that if we'd have kept him then we'd have done this or that.
"But when I arrived I think Nic had scored five or six goals and we were bottom of the table by one point from Derby, so it doesn't follow that if he'd stayed then we'd have done differently.
"We had no choice, Nic wanted to go and join Chelsea, which we fully understood.
"This club has never scored lots of goals, but I do accept that we don't score enough goals at the moment to get ourselves out of the trouble that we're in.
"It's not something that we hope changes, it's got to change."
