Diouf backs Bolton's chances

El-Hadji Diouf believes that Bolton are more than capable of surviving in the Premiership this season. The former Liverpool man also admitted he was proud of the club's European exploits after a brilliant win against Atletico Madrid. Bolton take on Diouf's old club Liverpool at the weekend in the Premiership.

"We just need to be stronger and more stronger when we play in the Premier League and play like we play in the Uefa Cup," Diouf told Sky Sports. "Of course [we are confident] we have a big team that is too good to go down. I think we will be staying in the Premier League easy.

"Every game for us is a big game not just because it is Liverpool or Man Utd we need to win football games and do everything fantastic. "
