Yeah I remember him going on strike at Real Madrid and I'm pretty sure he fell out with people at PSG quite quickly. Maybe it was the fact it happened in a summer rather than during the season, my recollection of Anelka to Real was that they made a huge bid which couldn't really be turned down.

I'd be surprised given his age if he had a reputation of being difficult before he went to Arsenal.

Yeah, from what I remember there were no issues prior to Arsenal, as he was only 17 when he joined. The bad behaviour definitely started at Arsenal though, I remember the "Le Sulk" newspaper headline and David Mellor calling him a tw@t live on air, which was very amusing.

At the time I was really devastated that he left, but if he hadn't Arsenal probably wouldn't have ended up signing Henry, so all's well that ends well.

Total next man syndrome from City here. Aguero aside, nobody else seems willing to take any responsibility.

Imagine being a grown adult and hitting someone because they scored a goal.

Edit: Morality aside, it was a **** punch as well.

Yeah massively depressing. Like you say, a grown man attempting to physically assault someone because of a game. How many brain cells do you have to lack to think this is a good thing to do

of course the head smashing into concrete plays a role, which isn't as much of a factor, but yeah.
