Diouf will be fine this season. It's the defense that we need to worry about.

Can we have a season where Diouf plays as a striker all the time? We fiddled around so much last season that nobody knew what their fucking job was. Find a team in pre-season, let everyone get used to their role, and stick with it. Rome wasn't built in a day, Mark. But it was built in a season Leicester fans will say

You need two players to score you 10-15 plus goals as injuries and suspensions dont guarantee a full season out of any one player plus we lose diouf for the acon in jan so cover is a definitive

I probably agree that Diouf is currently our main man up front and that is a scary thought. I am pretty sure Hughes thinks that way too. I think he ran out of patience with his finishing some time ago. He remains a decent option but if we need better.

I think last season diouf obviously had demons in his head. Rumours were he really struggled with his mothers death. Hopefully the lad can put that behind him and show that he can become the striker that we need

I have no problems with diouf being our main guy up front. He offers more than scoring, and we have plenty that can create and make goals elsewhere, when healthy and cohesive. Berahino wouldve been nice, but im in love with our current squad.

His control and first touch was a lot better today

Milky totally agree he need to play as a central striker for a sustained period and will thrive .

Diouf seems like a confidence player to me. A dozen games in a row in the starting 11 as a striker and I honestly believe he will come good. The lad has played more games at right back , right wing and left wing than he has in the position we signed him to play. A run of games and goals will also help him with his personal life

I'd love to give Mame the chance to prove the doubters wrong.

I watched the season review the other day, lots of highlights of chances he missed. Really basic chances. If there is talent in there then he's got some serious confidence issues to address infront of goal.

Diouf seems already to have found some kind of scoring form, keep playing him! I really like Berahino and he is also still very young, but the fee is getting ridiculous in my opinion! On the other hand all fees seem to have gone over the top this season! Wyanama to Spurs is the only bargain I can think of, and maybe the fee we paid for Allen wasn't too bad after his impressive Euros?

I didn't see many other strikers miss sitters because no one was there to miss them. Or indeed score them.

Confidence player, give him a least 10 games up front, during these games he will score a few and gain confidence at the same time, if he does, then keep him in, and I can see him getting at least 15 goals this season, and at the same time saving us a lot of money in the transfer market.

Not even sure why we're going after Berahino before ever really giving Diouf a fair go at it, even if people think Berahino is better than Diouf, is he £20m better? Not a chance IMO our money would be best spent on cover so we don't have to change formation/tactics because of one bloody injury, we'd be better letting Crouch leave, bringing Telford to the bench and focusing on other areas, like defensive cover and a NO.2 keeper that's under 40 Struggle to disagree really. Diouf might be chaotic at times and have the touch of someone suffering from rickets at others but play him up top regularly and he'll bag us 15. If Bojan is fit and firing I could see him getting 9 or 10. Add to that Arnie goals and who knows, maybe some from Shaq, Imbula etc and our goal struggles could improve big time. That being said. If the right striker is available I'd go for one and let Crouch go. He's been quality for us but he's not cut out for it at this level now. Sent from my SM-G928F using proboards

It's not as simple as say , Diouf scores 12 or Crouchy scores 7 in a season
They go in where it hurts and compete for the ball ...sometimes winning it and sometimes pressuring there centre half into half a clearance ...allowing arnie ? bojan ? and AN Other to grab a goal or two from the confusion ...and those goals count for a lot.
Diouf is a goodish player who will give defenders a difficult time . I like him , but it would nice if he had more rapid completion than Crouchy :-)
As for the thing MH does sometimes when he has no Diouf Crouchy or anybody battling against their centre halves . I am not convinced it's the way to go , but if it happens I hope I am wrong .
