nvager 498 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 He is exactly what we need in Europe and the SPL. A confident midfielder who really keeps possession and moves and passes the ball around. Very good first touch andopens up the way for others. Weiss seems to feed off him and ups his game. Strikers have a better chance too. Hopefully he will inspire Davis and the younger midfielders to better things too.Looks a great signing so far.

Gaz52 11,837 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I think Walter has got it right with this guy, if he wasn't a "badboy" he'd be worth a few bob. He's doing the business on the park and has got the beggars raging, almost the perfect signing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loykore 2 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I thought he was a great signing straight away and hes proving the critics wrong right now. Hope he continues to get better and rips the t*rriers a new arsehole next week. Didnt buy into how terrible a person people made him out.....ye a man or a mouse.

JM1872 3,818 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Does indeed. He sounds like an author though when you write E H Diouf Yes, he's performing well and getting his head down! I still fear the lid blowing off though and him completely losing it.. hope I'm proved wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueben_d 40 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Could see him winding up a well player today - probably boasting about all the money he has That swagger when he comes onto the pitch is classic, I actually hope his arrogance rubs off on a few others they need to start believing in how good they are.

boor 3 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 fantastic signing. would love to see him score because he deserves it. hasn't been playing a striking role or anything. hes very much been a feeder. if im honest, i think he was the real reason the game went so well today. he just seemed to keep posession flowing and takes on his man. would love it if we could make this move permanent!!

toolongawake 1,262 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I wasn't happy with the signing but to be fair I have been impressed so far, he's working hard on the park and I'm 100% behind him now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality haha right in front of me (Row A BF5) but his run in the 1st half when he took 3 players with him then just stopped with the ball was sheer class, this guy can play football and i only hope we can sign him at the end of his loan spell !!!

Thommo 708 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Am I correct in saying his contract with Blackburn runs out in the summer? If he keeps performing the way he has been I hope we can get him on a free after his loan spell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordo 33 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Was against the move for attitude reasons rather than footballing ones cause he's always looked a class player, but, as people have said, he is proving any doubters wrong and we should look at getting him on the cheap in the summer.

Most people weren't too impressed with both of them joining us including myself but so far both look to be very good additions to our squad and proved a lot of us wrong. Long may it continue.

Long may it continue.Agreed m8, i always knew Diouf had the ability but some of his "antics" have let him down but i'm all for 2nd chances but when it came to Bartley well that was the unknown for me just had to reserve judgement until such times like today when he looked great, i would say we do look stronger with the signings we have made along with Jamie Ness but i do feel sorry for Kyle Hutton who had a cracking game against Man Utd then nothing !!!

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 If he keeps these perfomances up we should be trying to get a package put together behind the scenes for him to stay.I think he would stay, in a heart beat.Money might be an issue.I think he would happily take a wage drop but I'm unsure if he'd drop from 70 grand a week (at a guess) to around 18 or 19 in the long term. That's my worry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
