Fenerbahce vs Chelsea: Anelka warns of Fener frenzy

Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka has warned his team-mates to prepare for a "crazy" atmosphere when they take on Fenerbahce in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final next week. Anelka spent 18 months with Fenerbahce between January 2005 and the summer of 2006. His Istanbul experience made a big impact on him and the France hitman cannot wait to go back as a member of Avram Grant's Chelsea side. The atmosphere inside the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium is something special, according to the Chelsea striker. There is a hunger to put Fenerbahce on the map in European competition and Anelka says the atmosphere will be hectic. Didier Drogba's return to the starting line-up has pushed Anelka back on to the bench but the former Bolton striker insists he is just happy to help the team out in whatever role he is given.
