World Cup winner Lizarazu blasts Chelsea striker Anelka

France World Cup winner Bixente Lizarazu has blasted Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka.

Lizarazu has slammed Anelka after his performance against Mexico.

Lizarazu said: "What bothers me is Nicolas Anelka's performance in the first half.

"I saw a player strolling ... strolling in the World Cup. He wasn't aggressive, wasn't interested. Domenech took him off at the break but should have done so before. You shouldn't play in a selfish manner. You have to show you're up for it."
