Being two footed does not make one a better player. It's a nice attribute to have on the side, yes. But it's a bonus.

"Really?
Messi, Ronaldo, Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas are comfortably better than him."
Cesc is debatable.

No it's not.
Anyway, you get my point. RVP, Ibrahimovic etc are also better than him.
"Being two footed does not make one a better player. It's a nice attribute to have on the side, yes. But it's a bonus."
Is your English accomplished enough for you to elaborate?
Or shall I just take the symbol as a simple disagreement?
Xabi Alonso, Van Persie, Robben, Gomez, Ribery...
Gomez is a truly shocking footballer.
"No it's not."
Yes it is. Your opinion is not a fact.
"Xabi Alonso, Van Persie, Robben, Gomez, Ribery..."
You just mentioned Gomez.
I will hereby dismiss your argument, and your very existence.

Well done on ignoring the rest of my post
Ozil is a world class player, but he's not in the top 5. Probably even not in the top 10.
IMO Silva is better than him.
Valencia is better than Ozil.
"Ozil is a world class player, but he's not in the top 5. Probably even not in the top 10.

Ozil belongs where I stated.
Silva is a top player. But he isn't better than him.
No but seriously Ozil is class and definitely one of the top 10 players in the world.

Is he better than Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta, Xavi or Ibrahimovic?
Ignore Kamran.
Giroud is probably in his top 5.

OK then.
If you are two footed it makes it 10x as hard to mark you out of the game. It is fairly easy to show somebody onto one foot, and although they could probably maintain possession, it would be very hard for them to do anything productive with the ball.
Messi is a special case - his acceleration and close control mean he can turn across a defender using his left footed, but his dribbling is twice as good as anyone in the world currently. All famous one footed players are dribblers - Ozil can dribble quite well but his main strength is his vision.
"Is he better than Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta, Xavi or Ibrahimovic?"
Stop comparing him to strikers.
In his position he is 2nd only to Iniesta.
I don't see why Gomez has been laughed off. In the team to score goals and has hit 40 this season.
Götze, Neymar and Hazard are the three standouts for me at the moment. I think each has the potential to reach Ronaldo's level (perhaps only one of them actually will).
The next person to reach Messi's level is probably about 13 years old and not playing professionally yet. He's a once a generation player IMO.

Load of shiite that is.
Being two footed is nowhere near an important as you try to make out.
If a player is good he will always find ways to adapt. Do you think most players two footed?

Lot of good one footed players out there. Name me some great ones.
"Giroud is probably in his top 5."

Erm no, he's probably not even in the top 50. Stop talking out of your backside.
"In his position he is 2nd only to Iniesta."

You never said that though. You said he's one of the top 5 players in the world which he's not.
Oh, yeah OP. While I like the debate you've brought up here - Wilfred Zaha. Really?!
"Lot of good one footed players out there. Name me some great ones."
Gervinho is a perfect example of a one footed player.
He uses just his right leg, yet he's virtually impossible to mark.
"Erm no, he's probably not even in the top 50. Stop talking out of your backside. "
Whoa. I said 'probably'. Chill out.
"You never said that though. You said he's one of the top 5 players in the world which he's not."
Ozil is top 5 players in the world.

No he's not. I just explained that too you. My god, how simple are you, Dubbed?
My word, you must be WUMing? Surely?
"Gervinho is a perfect example of a one footed player"
I said great.
The article is about who will be the Messis and Ronaldos of 2017. Gervinho has never got near a Ballon D'or.
Both Ronaldos, Pele, Zidane, Best... all two footed.
