Regardless of height, he can outjump most. His leap is amazing.

Diouf Granted Work Permit

Manchester United Striker Mame Biram Diouf Granted Work Permit
Senegalese star ready to make debut in the New Year
Dec 23, 2009 12:51:51 PM
Manchester United new boy Mame Biram Diouf has been cleared to make his debut for the club after a work permit was granted.
The 22-year-old Senegalese striker was signed from Norwegian side Molde in the summer and was immediately loaned back. Although ineligible for the FA Cup clash with Leeds United on 3 January, he is available for action in the New Year.
After firing in 34 goals in 75 appearances for the Scandinavians, Diouf has impressed while training with United.
Speaking to the club's official website earlier in the month, manager Sir Alex Ferguson praised his ability.
“If you’re talking about value then you can look at our young boy Diouf," he said.
"He’s been training with us and is looking very exciting. That’s the kind of situation we’re good at – finding young players who can develop at the club and at 22 years of age he’s looking very good.”

I hope he gets a chance unlike Tosic and Manucho.
Manucho made about 3 appearances off the bench.
To say he didnt get a chance isnt exacty true though. Him not being good enough was the actual situation. He played for the reserves and proved this. Theres a hell of a difference between his circumstances and Tosic's
This sounds exactly like Tosic's situation.
Who cares about Manucho? Diouf is the future.
I hope he earns a chance ulike tosic and manucho
Why are people comparing him to Manucho and Tosic. He's a whole new exciting future.
It's entirely up to him. If he deserves a chance he'll get it. Just look at Obertan.
Strange, apparently Monaco and Frankfurt are trying to get him on loan for the rest of the season.
Oh no. The prophecy is falling apart.
I said trying. I'm trying to bed the entire pussycat dolls. Doubt either will happen.
Thats what they all say Gambs, ' trying '. You know that and then before we know the women in frankfurt or monaco are all out of g-strings.
According to Michael Carricks facebook Dioufs looked pretty special in training
I'm hoping for a Diouf/Owen partnership on Wednesday. Don't let me down oh chosen one.

I think an Owen / Douif partnership sounds shit to be fair.
I'm excited to see Douif but I think he needs a proper chance playing with someone who can create a chance or ttwo for him, i.e Berbatov or Rooney. I'm fed up of this policy of seeing several young players at once, they should get their opportunity alongside established players to help them.
Correct me if I am wrong but didn't SAF recently say he would not play Diouf from the start so soon? He said he could make the bench though.. So I just hope he makes the squad to be honest..
Seeing that photo always cheers me up. In Diouf I trust.I'm hoping for a Diouf/Owen partnership on Wednesday. Don't let me down oh chosen one.
He appears like a messiah, a messiah sent to us to end our impending catastrophic implosion.
"THE MESSIAH"
Here's my prophecy: Whenever he gets his chance he'll miss a couple of sitters and the kneejerks will write him off. But if he gets a few minutes against City I'd say he's likely to score a header. City can't jump. Mame can fly.
Amen. Soon we will all receive his gospel.
I've decided to start a religion. Dioufism. We say our Hail Dioufs every night. And we have candles with that picture of him that we burn daily in his honor.
Some of you guys on here are nuts!Diouuuuuffffffff
Bit late mate, we've being worshipping under his name for ages. Our ceremonies are pretty similar to that, though some involve kebabs. We also refer to his coolness as The One! Welcome to the fold.
Are you more Orthodox Dioufist?
"Sir Alex, we have to do something...we cannot continue like this at this rate we'll be out of the Carling Cup aswell, the fans won't like this we can't lose to city like this!" Ezequiel Phelan said, his shorts riding high upon his thighs, his member bulging into the Sky Sports cameras.
"feckin' shut it ye' spastic." Replied Sir Alex quietly.
"But they are posting pictures from the Sound of Music on Red Cafe Gaffer, do something!"
"I've got nay-one have A?" Sir Alex grunted. "feckin' noncy-naldo' left us din' he? Left me with that plank of dead-wood-shite Berbacock. Rooney, feckin' Rooney they chant, he's shite and short and Owen I did that for a laugh, din' A. There's feckin no-one Phelan, so shut ye feckin' trap."
"I've thought of someone Gaffer." Said the shaking Phelan.
"Well he better be the fecking Messiah." Sir Alex laughed sarcastically.
"Someone mention me?" Said a figure shrouded in mystery behind them. Sir Alex turned and spat his gum out.
The figure de-robed and stood up.
"feck off Manucho I sold ye." Said Alex, turning back to the match.
Ezequiel Phelan, coughed. "This is him, gaffer, the one I spoke about. They say he can fly, fly like an Eagle and then swoop low, low like a Squirrel lost and far away from it's lofty home within the tree-tops. They say one touch of his strange thumb-nail can cure any itch, some have witnessed him, they say, in Norway score goals from impossible angles and heights and with a goal ratio of 4 a game, guaranteed this is Mame Diouf, or as some of us enlightened disciples know him...
The Messiah."

He's here!
I'm the founder!
Pretty apt, since if he fails he'll be crucified here.
Spooky eh?
If you rearrange the letters in "gambit" you can almost sort of start to make out "John the Baptist".
Messiah United. I heard we originally gave Mame the shirt number 666 and lo! A great big fecking ball of ye holy fire came from the Sky and torched the said shirt and from the ashes rose a small bunny Rabbit of purest red which now lives in the Stretford End and occasionally offers discount mega-rider tickets to the kiddies.
I didn't realise Jesus drove a convertible.
In the rain much less...
