Anelka loves Chelsea life

27 March 2008 - 21:08

Despite failing to win a consistent starting berth at Chelsea, £15 million January signing from Bolton, Nicolas Anelka, has insisted he is loving life at Stamford Bridge. Anelka helped the Blues to victory over his old club Arsenal at the weekend.

"I am already very happy to have signed for a club like Chelsea. I have been waiting for that since my departure from Liverpool six years ago," Anelka told L'Equipe. "Even if I don't always play in the centre, that is not so serious.



“With the number of matches we are playing, there has not been a lot of time to work on my partnership with Didier Drogba. Am I keen to play regularly on the left flank? No, I have never played on the left before in England.



"People who have worked with me know my qualities are in the centre and I believe the Chelsea coach knows it. He uses me alone on the centre or on the flank, but it is not a big trouble to me so far.



"I will be 32 at the end of my Chelsea contract. If they want to keep me I will stay. Otherwise you never know. I can move to USA or come back to Paris Saint Germain. It is an option I can't exclude."
