I remember Pele named him in this list of 100 greatest living players or something. Sam probably would've brought him here if he'd stuck around longer. Expand Quote Diouf had already been involved in controversial spitting incidents before arriving at Anfield, and his infamy in that regard only grew after moving to England. After spitting at a Celtic fan during a UEFA Cup clash in 2003, Diouf was charged with assault and fined two weeks’ wages, while he was charged with spitting at an 11-year-old Middlesbrough fan and later banned for three matches for spitting at Portsmouth’s Arjen de Zeeuw the following year on loan at Bolton. Expand Quote During his time with Bolton in 2009, Diouf was questioned by police after allegedly making a racial slur to an Everton ball-boy. The winger defended his actions and claimed Everton fans were racially abusing him and throwing bananas at him, although no evidence was found by police. Expand Quote Following Blackburn's win over QPR in 2011, Neil Warnock accused Diouf of taunting Jamie Mackie - who was lying on the ground with a broken leg.

joeyt Posted January 30, 2024 Share Posted January 30, 2024 @Froggy Has Rashford always been like this and the media are just catching on to it now? Or is it just recently when he's been out of form? He was the golden boy playing well under OGS, helping the free school meals etc but the complete lack of respect for the manager and club coinciding with him being horribly out of form is really odd. Did he think he'd get away with his trip to Belfast? Or is he trying to force a move/change of manager or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Don’t care for ETH, but Rashford was too ‘ill’ to train in Manchester after a night out in Belfast. Irrespective of what the manager is like, that’s pretty disgraceful and unprofessional behaviour towards a club that pays him crazy money and he should know better. The guy was a national hero not long ago and now he’s ruined his reputation and is acting like an idiot when he should really be maturing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
