Favourite game played:

When Chelsea hosted Roberto Martinez's Wigan for the final league fixture of the 2009/10 campaign, it was Nicolas Anelka who scored the first of eight goals against the northern outfit on a momentous day.

Our number 39 would score once more in a game that we knew would bring the Barclays Premier League title to Stamford Bridge should we win it. The Frenchman's strikes were added to by goals from Frank Lampard, Salomon Kalou and a Didier Drogba hat-trick.

'The last game to decide the championship, against Wigan, that was good,' Anelka decides, 'because we won and we were champions in the end.

'Scoring the first goal on a day like that is something special because you know you have to win and when you score the first goal, you know you have done a good job. The game is not finished of course but it is a good feeling because you know you will be champions in the end.'

Favourite game watched:

In March 1993, Nicolas Anelka was following the progress of Paris St-Germain in the Uefa Cup. It was a campaign containing a match he will never forget.

'The best game I have watched as a spectator was Paris St-Germain versus Real Madrid and Paris had to win by a two-goal difference and they won 4-1,' he says. 

'It was on TV a long, long time ago. I watched that when I was young because I grew up a PSG supporter.'

The side from the French capital had reached the quarter-final stage and were in a tie against the Spanish capital's biggest club.

Real Madrid had a healthy two-goal lead going into the second game having won 3-1 on aggregate in Spain. 

Knowing a 2-0 win would put them into the last four of the competition, PSG were one up by half-time in front of their own vociferous fans. The goal was scored by George Weah (pictured below), seven years before his spell on loan at Chelsea.

Time was running out but a David Ginola strike with 10 minutes to go in the second half put PSG in front in the tie on away goals and a third was then added. Real Madrid pulled one back with 89 minutes on the clock and suddenly it was all square again. With the tension racked up, PSG sealed it with their fourth, scored in injury time. They would however lose to eventual Uefa Cup winners Juventus in the semi-finals.
