Former Liverpool striker Florent Sinama Pongolle has shed light on an extraordinary X-rated dressing room bust-up between Steven Gerrard and El Hadji Diouf.
It is well documented that there is no love lost between the former Liverpool duo, with Diouf having launched a series of verbal attacks on Gerrard since leaving Anfield back in 2005.
Diouf has previously accused the former Liverpool captain of 'killing' the club and being 'jealous' of his talent.
And now Pongolle has revealed the extent of the pair's animosity by recalling an astonishing half-time row between Gerrard and Diouf during a pre-season friendly.
'Half-time of a pre-season game. Fight between Diouf and Gerrard. I was traumatised,' Pongolle told journalist Walid Acherchour, via Sport Witness.
'Can you imagine the young ones seeing this and thinking that's what professionals are like at that level?
'At half-time, in the dressing room. Stevie G is all like "you have to pass, you have to pass'"and [Diouf] just loses it.
'He didn't speak English. His English was rubbish. You know what he did? They hated each other so much. Steven Gerrard arrives, he insults Diouf. "Hey, you f*****".
'And [Diouf] couldn't answer, so he grabs [former Liverpool boss] Gerard Houllier and says: "Tell him, I'll f*** his mum".
'He came in and said: "I'm not his mate, I'll do him in straight away".'
Diouf left Liverpool for Bolton in 2005 after scoring just six goals in 80 appearances for the Premier League giants, while Gerrard would go on to cement his place as one of the club's greatest-ever players.

Pongolle.....what a joke of a player. Who would believe this and that suspect journalist Diouf was an arrogant sod, deserved any telling off. He was greedy and believed he was a superstar. Cost us lots of missed goal opportunities because of his greedy behavior. It’s just his mentality that no LFC supporter liked, accept some of those supporters from Africa because of where he came from.
Oh man don't talk about Africa because your baby momma comes to us for fun and we like to break her porniines so shut up and put your face down mother fucker
