He is fucking shite! There is a reason why Liverpool, Bolton, Sunderland and now Blackburn have let him move on.

He has done next to fuck all since he joined us but hey he dyes his mohican blue, kissess the badge and winds up the t*rriers...

The sooner he is back at Blackburn the better.

Wow

Long balls up to him 90% of the time don't help, although he won a number of them.

His touch and passing was absolutely woeful today. Although I thought he worked hard and won us a lot of free-kicks.

Not his best game, certainly not the worst player in a Rangers jersey.

At Sunderland and Blackburn hes left both times after manager changes

Its the like good old "Barry flopped at Blackburn" the tims roll out, twisting the truth

It's not even remotely similar

Blackburn were desperate to keep Barry Ferguson

They were prepared to pay an alleged 80% of Diouf's wages just to get him out of the club

I like the guy as a player, but he is not a striker, so playing him up front is asking for trouble. He always comes deep to try and get involved in play, we should consider him as part of a 3 man centre midfield.

Barry Ferguson was a key player at Blackburn.

He then got injured....Blackburn struggled and he was not viewed so highly after he returned (unfit).

Football fans are fickle.

However, Blackburn hadn't paid Rangers all they were due and Blackburn were downsizing so it made sense for them to sell him back to the club they actually still owed money too.

Diouf?

A small glance at Blackburn forums would see they thought he was arguably their best player this season.

A new manager coming in, coupled with a a few good results saw him reduced to a bit-part figure.

Barry left Blackburn due to finances largely.

Diouf left as the manager didn't fancy him much.

No real comparison IMO.

Barry leaving Blackburn was nothing to do with finances

He put in a transfer request because he wanted to return to Rangers. Blackburn weren't prepared to let him leave until Birmingham agreed to sell them Robbie Savage

The fact that they still owed us money meant we could afford him. It was nothing to do with Blackburn needing to sell.

I'm amazed at how slow Diouf is.

I always thought he was a bit faster.

I think he's keeping back, since most of the other players can't follow.

Remember when he got so pissed at that throw in a few weeks back ?

It's not the first time he goes past his man, wants to cross it and sees that there is absolutely nobody in or around the box, they're just jogging towards the box.

I read a scout report on him from 2001 (Lens days) and in it his pace was highlighted - he's never been blessed with pace, IMO and today he seemed slower than ever.

His short, poorly weighted balls frustrate the hell out of me as well.

I wish we'd sign players with a bit of pace - it's 2011, not the early 90's.

Never his greatest of games on a day where no-one was great. Looked as if he was blowing out his arse after about an hour. Still has the strength and ability to cause teams problems though.

With that bit of quality!

It was ALL to do with finance....the whole deal.

Believe what you wish.

Diouf has no real pace....he never had.

Neither did Ronald De Boer.

Both were/are very good footballers.

Why do we always consider pace above ability?

Ability beats all.

I'm not questioning Diouf's ability.

Pace does help, and everyone can see that this Rangers team lacks pace.

The comparison was more about twisting the truth to try and fit an arguement

To claim Diouf has flopped at every club is ridiculous
