I can handle bad-boy Anelka, insists Allardyce

SAM ALLARDYCE insists he is the man to tame Nicolas Anelka.

The Bolton boss is hoping Fenerbahce will finally relent and allow Anelka to make his Premiership return after an 18-month exile in Turkey.

Anelka has already had three stints in England, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City. And, while the 27-year-old’stalent is unquestioned, there are still serious misgivings over his attitude and application.
