Martinez predicts bright future for Diame

Wigan manager Roberto Martinez has predicted a sparkling future for Mohamed Diame after an imperious performance from the young French midfielder drew comparisons with Patrick Vieira.Diame was the dominant figure at the DW Stadium but there was ultimately frustration for Wigan as a defiant Mark Schwarzer ensured a point for the visitors.At least Martinez could have some confidence for the future, not least with the performance of his 22-year-old central midfielder bought from Spanish Second Division side Rayo Vallecano for £3.5million in the summer under the noses of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Arsenal.Martinez said: "It's rare to find someone with power, true quality and composure on the ball - Patrick Vieira had that."Playing in Spain allowed Momo to be a little bit different and when he fully understands the nature of the British game he will be a special player in the Premier League."He's only 22 and he's still adapting to the British game but he's someone who can go as high as he wants to go."
