One-footed players

[Big Swifty]

My pet hate is one-footed players, those who go through a whole game without touching the ball with their weaker foot. Left-footed players are more noticeable somehow, and every club nowadays has at least one grotesquely one-sided performer. If I were a well-paid player, I should consider it shameful to parade such a weakness before thousands of spectators.
I can think of a couple of players perhaps who were great but purely left-footed, namely Puskas & Maradona, but they had exceptional talent and could overcome their peculiarity. A one-footed player is one who can only play one way, he is only half a player - the left-winger who gets the ball out wide on the left, and HAS to play it back because he dare not touch it with his right, for example. That is why, say, Jack Wilshere will never be great. I think his right foot has been amputated or something. You've got two feet, man - use the buggers! A whole new game will open up to you! It's not hard!
Am I alone in finding this infuriating phenomenon ever more widespread? Or should I get a life?

It does depend how good your one foot is, but most average league players would be greatly improved if they were decent with both feet. Merlin is one of the exceptions that prove the rule.

I agree, average players could improve. But might Silva be even greater with 2 feet?
