Anelka named player manager

Just read this on the BBC website , he is one player i never thought would become a manager

I doubt he will be for long.

I wonder if he will put up with sulking players ?

Can't see it lasting long, it seems that they want instant sucess, choping and changing managers doesn't really help. Makes you thing if Drogba would be even more tempted to join him in over there come the summer when he's out of contract, he was heavily linked to join Anelka there in January.

Well good look to Anelka, he's one of the last I would have thought to have become a manager. It's nice to see he's brought in his own backroom staff with guys like Ian Walker joining, I wonder if there will be a load of English & French players who jump ship over there in the next coming months for a big pay day

"Shenhua hope Anelka's contacts will help him attract big names to the club." More interested in who Anelka knows than how he is as a manager.
