The 22-year-old was branded a £10m flop after a number of uninspiring displays as a striker. Since switching to the right wing, though, Diouf has become a cult hero with the Anfield faithful.

Diouf said:"I chose to sign for Liverpool to progress on a tactical level, as technically my game was quite well progressed.

"Still, I had difficulties at the beginning because I was tired after the World Cup.
"Despite my reputation, I had to work hard at earning a place in the first team amongst some very famous team-mates. I think I have achieved my objective."
