The Senegal international has found it difficult to break into the Anfield first team but his confidence, it seems, have never suffered.

He said: I feel that I have become an international star, but less so than if I were European. African players are always less highly regarded," says Diouf.

"Gerard Houllier says that I would be one of the best players in the world if I was French or Brazilian."
