Diouf is on for the treble

Congratulations to El Hadji Malick Diouf on winning the African Cup of Nations with Senegal. Not much happened in the final apart from a disallowed Senegal goal, a penalty harshly given against Diouf causing the Senegal team to walk off the pitch, a terrible Panenka penalty, a brilliant extra-time winner and Nayef Aguerd heading against the bar.

That win should boost El Hadji's confidence and as my fellow season-ticket holder Big Sam points out, he's now on for the treble: The Betway Cup, African Cup of Nations and FA Cup, assuming our chances don't go for a Burton. It doesn't get better than that.
