Once again, I had to manage to score all on my own. Anelka, after another game.

The award means a lot - and at the same time nothing. It is something I hadn't given a moments thought to. Anelka, on failing to turn up to receive his PFA Young Player of the Year award.

Why should I? [watch the Charity Shield]. I'm no longer part of Arsenal and it doesn't interest me. To hell with the English people. Anelka.

I'm very happy at Chelsea. But I don't want to be the club cretin. Frank Lebeouf, who feels he is underpaid.

I'm not here only to play against countries like Andorra and Armenia. Lebeouf, who said he would consider his international future if not selected to play for France against Russia.

English football is hard work - you have to run all the time. Nwankwo Kanu on life with Arsenal.

I don't like the foreign lads coming in and moaning, 'the league's too long' or they need more days off or they're returning home. They should respect the English game. Paul Gascoigne.
