Is El-Hadji Diouf actually any good?
Following his delightful “F*** you and f*** your leg” rant at Jamie Mackie after the QPR player had BROKEN HIS LEG, the debate is still raging as to whether El-Hadji Diouf is worse than Hitler or just a slightly more unpleasant Chairman Mao. However, there is a more pressing question The Spoiler wants answered…
Is El-Hadji Diouf actually any good at football?
It’s almost universally agreed that Diouf is one of the more dislikeable characters in a footballing world hardly brimming with bloody lovely chaps. But amidst all the spitting and swearing, Diouf does actually kick footballs and stuff – for Blackburn Rovers no less.
He came to England as a striker for Liverpool before scoring six goals in two seasons for the Reds. He’s since plied his trade with Bolton and Sunderland, before moving to Rovers in 2009. He’s now a winger-type player who spends his time doing (it seems) not very much – sort of a poor man’s Dirk Kuyt.
