It’s Bergkamp kinda genius Great skill, but is it necessary? If the right foot step over moves an opponent just enough to all the ball to creep past, then I can get it. Other than that, it seems a bit of flamboyant nonsense: surely the technique is more difficult than just curling it in with the right peg. Each to their own, but not really my bag.

It’s the pinpoint accuracy, if he curled it, the speed would Have been taken out of it. I’ve seen him so it a few times so I don’t think he has much faith in his right foot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeep Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Any professional football player should be able to kick the ball as well with either foot.... It's not like they don't have time to practice.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like they don't have time to practice.... When you see clips of Maradona and Messi as kids, they were born with a magic left foot, they didn't learn it. Relatively they are poor with their right feet, it doesn't change significantly with practise. Beckham's free kicks, Okocha's skill, both completely right footed because that's where their gifts were. You've either got it or you haven't.

In theory yeah they should, but they’re gonna spend the time perfecting their stronger side to make that brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has a stronger foot, but should be able to do a bit with the weaker one. Necessary even if just to help with a dribble. Snooker players have rests to help where the shot would necessitate use of the wrong hand, and no bugger trying to take the ball off them.

Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted March 15, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 15, 2021 Played at a decent level and I can pretty much put it where I want with my right foot, bend it left or right etc, but like a spaz with my left foot. Same with handwriting, can only do it with my right hand. Strange thing is, my left hand is my wanking hand, think it must feel like someone else is doing it. Anyway, most pro's are one footed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I'm making is that practice makes you better at something. I'm naturally right footed. I practiced kicking a football with my left foot when I was a kid. Didn't spend a lot of time doing it, was still using my right foot. I ended up with the same ability with both feet. Some would say shit ability!!! I should've practiced heading a ball, I was useless!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
