Anelka drops 'Le Sulk' tag for Chelsea glory

Nicolas Anelka has dropped his 'Le Sulk' persona at Chelsea, insisting he's prepared to even become a supersub if it means delivering trophies to the Stamford Bridge fans.

The French striker said: "If you play at Chelsea, then the important thing is to win things as a team.

"Now we are in the final moments of the season and we have to win. So, if I can do anything to help the team to win, I will do it.

"Sometimes you play, and sometimes you don't. That's part of the game. You have to accept it as a group and realise the important thing is the team win something. There are so many games in a season at Chelsea that everyone will have the chance to contribute.

"I don't think about being a starter. Of course I want to play, but I want to help the team win things in the first place. That is the main thing I think about."
