John Arne Riise was never a fan of El Hadji Diouf judging by his response to Carragher comments

Darragh Murphy

El Hadji Diouf is struggling for back-up.

The controversial striker made no friends with his comments about former teammates and rivals earlier this week and one of his biggest critics is none other than John Arne Riise.

In an explosive interview with French magazine So Foot, Diouf tore into Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher, as well as former Celtic captain Neil Lennon.

And while Carragher just laughed off the fact that Diouf had compared him to “a turkey,” legendary Liverpool left-back Riise was seemingly much more annoyed by the lack of respect shown by the divisive Senegalese player.
