Whatever about his actual ability, Anelka in the game is impossable to work with. When he arrives at a club initially, he claims to be "Satisfied with the conditions at the club. For now." He then becomes happy almost immediately. I've never coached him, but people who have complain about him incessantly, while any time I look at his stats, he's either just after a transfer, or demanding one.
