Lvg seems to be hammering home the message of needing a left/right foot balance at CB. As we seem to be more, settled with our current Right footed players (Jones/Smalling) does that mean we are barking up the wrong tree with Ramos/otemandi. Seems only Hummels has been linked as a left footer.
Just a thought!

Hummels is right footed, but very good with his left foot.

I don't agree with this whole left foot and right foot cb's it's daft. For years we had vidic and Ferdinand who where both right footed and I don't recall anybody moaning about unbalanced defenders then. How many clubs in the world have one left footed cb and one right footed?

Haha. cheers chaps. Shows me i should not believe everything I read!! I was playing down Ramos as being right footed even though he has played left side a decent amount.
My point i guess is that Smalling seems to be LVG's choice (based on last year making him one of the captains) so I would imagine our priority would be left sided players.
I think certain players can play either side and be competent on there left but LVG seems to be making a big deal about it so wondered if there are some other players we need to consider.in the same vein as his comments on strikers not being in the ones being discussed
