Nicolas Anelka wants to feature in a more creative role for Chelsea

He said: "Goals are not my thing.

"I don't play football to score goals. I love the game.

"I am not interested in scoring if I play poorly during the match.

"It is for this reason that I want to play behind a main striker. It is where I feel I'm most useful. People only remember goals. I am different."
