No fking way. Anelka is worth maybe 5mil at most, probably 3.5. 50mil plus Anelka or fk off Chelsea.
Anyway the club have just said 50mil minimum so thats that.
3.5? FFS we sold babel for 6...Anelka is a 10-15 players ,look how much Darren Bent cost Villa...
Yeah but how old is Anelka? Hardly any resale value whatsoever. Sorry but we want younger players for the future. Anelka would simply be to tide us over till the summer as FT has fked us over with the timing of his tantrum.
As for Bent at villa.. we'll your talking about a manager who paid 12mil for Diao. I don't think he can be used to justify anything. 
Diao was about 5 million mate, Diouf was about 10 i think.
Bent was overpriced but will get goals.
I would take Anelka all day, he will come in and shouldnt need time to settle etc. Still a top player and will have a couple of years left at the top i think.
Sabre looks like a big lezzer
