The difference in his game from the first season when he was quite raw to his second season was unbelievable. Even from the charity shield against Man U it was obvious he had stepped up his game. Shame he didn't continue to grow like that. Could've been an incredible striker
He had it all, apart from the dedication and desire to be the best like Henry. Can't knock his career but could have done so much more
he is better than thierry. very smart just like benzema. Anelka and Bergkamp was the best duo we have
Anelka better Than Henry? Bro stop
@@haidaraidid5157 delusional
@@haidaraidid5157 You wanted to say "more talented". Maybe. But of course Henry was better and had much better career.
@@Jack1986ZEi think that's the thing, at the start of their carrers, Anelka's potential was seen as bigger than Henry .
You could say that Anelka was more talented than Henry , but the latter had more determination and was a better profesional .
See that last move in this clip with the faint shot and then blasting the ball past the keeper?.. that's what got me into supporting Arsenal fully and the epl in general. Watching Anelka as a kid was really life changing.
Really easy to see why so many black kids grew up supporting Arsenal. Wrighty, Anelka, Wiltord, Henry, Kanu, Vieira, Cole, Sol…All heavyweights in their own right.
This guy was 2 years before my time as an Arsenal fan. I got my first shirt in 2000. But wow, he was so naturally talented, amazing goals, balance, pace and skill
Could of been as big as henry for us he had that much potential . But in the end we didnt miss him henry was a ready replacement
Wenger’s plan was to play them together
@@LeeH688 We definitely would have won more trophies if that happened.
He had it all like a french R9 and if he had remained at arsenal he would have scored more than thierry who such a team player and a unbelievable passer.
Been eagerly waiting on this one. Devastating talent. Had a career most would be proud of and it still wasn’t fully befitting of his talent. Spent too many years at clubs below his level.
for sure, very strange he was at this level aged 19 but never really looks as devastating afterwards
@@souster98 Agreed. He had some quality years for City and did look really good for Chelsea in 08/09. But after what he showed at Arsenal, he should have rivalled the top strikers of his generation. Just never happened.
@@souster98 naw i cant agree with that Anelka at City and Liverpool looked absolutely incredible. His all round game was even better than in his early days at Arsenal.

You should be getting x10 the views on these man absolute legend
AS I understand it, he was badly advised by his brother, who was his Agent
Sol Campbell’s pace is very impressive in this video
campbell was a ridiculous athlete
Sadly, I never got the chance to watch Anelka at Arsenal, as I was just beginning to watch football clubs. Thanks to this channel I can get a glimpse of past endeavors and achievements.
"Imagine if Anelka didn't leave arsenal and we could see the Anelka-Henry combination" is Arsenal's version of liverpool's"Imagine if Torres didn't leave Liverpool and we could see the Torres-Suarez combination".
Where would Bergkamp have played? Possibly could've gone 442 diamond with Dennis in behind the two.
@@arsenalogist4285 either that or Bergkamp as an attacking 8 with Viera or Gilberto screening the midfield
Then after Bergkamp retired a front three of Henry, Van Persie and Anelka.
@@nextgenownageAnelka never coming back after flopping at Madrid always a mystery to me he was linked even in 07 as an henry replacement
@@arsenalogist4285 They had plenty of CMs. Vieira, Gilberto Silva, Petit, Fabregas, even Pires could have slotted in.
In early 2000's I used to watch games only because of him. The only striker that excited me more than him was Brazilian Ronado but Anelka was right behind him. Imo he was one of the fastest players I've seen with the ball.
what a comp !! what a tune aswell
The plan with Wenger was to play Bergkamp as an attacking 8 with Henry and Anelka up front. Imagine how good that would of been
No I think Wenger just got Henry as they'd lost Anelka
@@FootkerSnookball Wenger already confirmed that the plan was to have both of them. Should be easy to find
Ita similar when podolski and giroud came to arsenal and rvp go to man utd 😢
There's shades of Henry in some of his moves.
defo, he's a mix between henry and r9's style
He was Wrighty's heir apparent it seemed.....
En plus avec le son sérieux ❤
So gassed for this one. Saw ur work in progress tweet
One of the few players to give problems to stam he had to be pretty good to do it.
Prime Anelka would fit right into the current squad like a glove
I’ve heard some elite CBs say that Anelka was more of a problem for them than Henry, especially in early years. Even in Clairfontaine it was common knowledge Nico was supposed to be the era defining striker beyond Titi and Trezeguet. Tbf, Nico was more frightening for us at such tender years. Goes to show how much effort, development and fortune played out for Titi to take it all the way.
gréât vidéo. Anelka was more animal when hé played for Arsenal. He s a mix of Henry and R9
thanks and fully agree, his talent was insane
I see a lot of a young anelka in Hugo Ekitike
Done what Ian Wright couldn't score against Pete.
On the pitch he had everything. The problems were off the pitch. He left Arsenal too early. He had Bergkamp, Overmars and Viera backing him up.
No disrespect to Wiltord, Kanu or any other strikers but If only we can see a combination of Bergkamp-Anelka-Henry.
Treble for sure
Anelka is a goal machine
Kanu is an artist
Wiltord and Kanu were incredibly underrated
wat u talking about? kanu was a maestro
@@KMervJr A treble but not the Treble. Arsenal were lucky enough to win the double in 98.
He was not selected for world cup 98( win double with arsenal) ... not selected 2002 or 2006🤷♂️
The season leading up to WC98 he only scored 9 goals in all competitions and other players were more experienced....also did France miss him??
It's worse than saying Beckham & Scholes should've been at Euro96 because they won the double with ManUtd yeah but they'd not yet been capped for England and McManaman, Anderton etc... had been regular PL players in all the PL seasons up until then & had been internationals for a decent amount of time.
2002 to 2006 Anelka played for ManCity. Who were newly promoted to PL 2002/03.
Big fan of your videos!! but noticed no Freddie love any chance of getting ljungberg vid! keep up the good work.
Thanks! I do like freddie but he's not a good "comp" player, he never really did skills or lots of technical stuff etc that's why I haven't
@@souster98 makes sense keep up the great work!
Was so so good when he starred for Arsenal. Worst decision for HIM was to leave for Real. Arsenal got loads of money for him and it worked out for us but He never completed his training to reach his full potential. Never played again with the same intensity and freedom at all his other future clubs. Arsenal was the one place where they would have built the team around him.
I still remember him walking towards the penalty box from the corner, while Lampard already taken the corner. His intensity is gone But, Anelka doesn't care attitude is his biggest weakness, and his biggest advantage. I remember Chelsea losing 4-1 against Man city(if im not mistaken) and Anelka is the only one that performed like he usually did while others making silly mistakes and being wasteful.
How about his move to Fenerbachce? It was even more stupid decision!
intelligent+technic+fast+finishing = Mbappe
Mbappe + elegant + style = Henry
Henry + indifference = Anelka😅 math is good
I got so hyped when he signed for Real Madrid, I had watched videos of him playing. It was a beast.
Unfortunately for us he came to Spain just to enjoy his wealthy status with no intention to progress as football player. He was mentally unstable and very lazy. Such a pity.
Stop judging someone you aint got a fu*** clue about.
@@Woze899 Im not juding anyone here. Just describing the reality of what happened. Cry a river to someone else
@@marcopelaezfernandez4573 how do you know he was mentally unstable or lazy? Cos the only thing we know it didnt worked out for real madrid and it can be due to various reasons.
@@Woze899 Journalists went to his place a day he skipped training and he was playing table tennis in his garden with his relatives. Never saw anything like that in 30 years supporting Real Madrid
@@Woze899 he was walking on the pitch, he was freaking lazy. Not even one freaking interview in the whole year. He scored 2 or 3 goals in an entire season.
He definitely had the potential to become one of the greatest strikers ever but he left arsenal too early and ended up playing for over 10 teams and the way his international career ended didn't help either. Henry was definitely an upgrade which I thought was impossible at the time
no henry was a downgrade. Anelka was smart he played as a team. if we keep him we could have a champions league trophy
@@haidaraidid5157 What? Of course Anelka was talented, but Henry is Arsenal legend. And what did Anelka win, if he was "un upgrade"?
Henry definitely took some of Anelkas sway fe sure
Maybe if he stayed at arsenal, I think nicolas is bigger than Henry.
Possibly as he was young and would have improved, if he had stayed at Arsenal; but its a big if!
Agreed.
Got a similar skills, but in terms of relax and controlling the ball Henry was superior, Anelka was just like CR7, depends on speed and shooting
Forgetting that one left for the other to come in, it would've been interesting nonetheless to see Anelka & Henry at Arsenal together in their primes. It's a shame how his time in Madrid changed the trajectory of Anelka's career...
Was better than Henry at the time and had a much higher celling to. It's a shame he never stayed. Arsenal never had a youngster like him so far.
Look at the level henry reached tho. how many strikers in history peaked higher than Henry from 02-06. Yes Anelka had incredible talent maybe more naturally gifted than Henry but it’s hard to see how he would’ve surpassed the level of peak Henry. For me he probably would’ve been just a notch below or equalling him at best not surpassing him
@@mashwork6615 we'll never know bro. But I was so sad that we couldn't have both at front for us, with Bergkamp in the 10 and then later down the line a front three of Henry, Van Persie, Anelka with Fab in the 10 😭😭😭

Hi 🙋🏿♂️ Tom. Long time ago
hey bro how are you
我认为他比亨利牛逼！
Same.
Song?

Wesh la musique en plus, batard tu fumes ? #Teamquenelle
C'est les coach français et medias qui ont détruit sa carrière car il se laisse Pas marcher sur les pieds c'est tou5 simplement ça
I never really rated him I think he was levels below Henry in everything
After he left Arsenal yeah but when he was between 18 and 20, Henry wasn't even in his league. He had such a high ceiling but wasted his talent.
On the ball there's not much difference and Anelka was way better with headed chances although Anelka's numbers for Arsenal weren't that good although they were in a more defensive team compared to when Henry joined them and Anelka was very young at Arsenal amd only there for 2 years.
