Described as a 'breath of fresh air' by Preston North End coach David Moyes, Diaf injured himself in training two days before the 1999/00 season began.[10] Unfortunately, on the 6th of November at Colchester, he suffered a fracture under his left eye, so had to undergo an operation.[11] Despite turning out with the reserves and expressing eagerness to get back on the field,[11] the half-back was ruled out of action again with a January injury,[12] posting three league appearances the entire season.

Asked about Preston North End, the Frenchman stated that the team, as well as the manager, exuded talent and that they could potentially produce football similar to Manchester United, who were one division above.[10] He also claimed that the standard was higher than in France.[10]

gollark: Some of them are, but regardless, a lot of the time they are used on *news websites* and *personal sites* and such, which could literally just be a folder of static HTML and images with maybe some progressive enhancement JS.
gollark: Because they're used in places where HTML is *actually fine*.
gollark: "why yes, of course I'm going to use 100KB of JavaScript to reimplement native browser features but worse"
gollark: "hmm yes I will include this 1MB stock image for my 10KB of text making up this article"
gollark: To be fair, the modern web is awful.
