Florent Malouda

if that is true its strange because left handed people are usually more ambidextrous than right handers

I hope his replacement is not leftfooted! Really, why leftfooted players can not do anything with their right foot?! same for Mata, Sturridge and Lukaku! but on the other hand look at Drogba at 34 he smashes the ball with his left foot like he is natural leftfooty at Semi against Spurs!

From now on we should invest in right footed players only!

So true. I had a chat with my PE teacher few days ago and we both agreed that majority of left-footed players can't use their right leg to save their lives, whereas right-footed players can kill with their left. I'm sure it has to do with majority of players being right-footed, but still, you won't find many left-footed players having a good right.

Obviously not at professional standard but i was left footed growing up. My football coach abd dad both pushed me to use my weaker right foot as much as possible and now i feel comfortable with both feet.

If i'm striking a ball with power such as shooting or a long pass i still prefer to use my left but if i'm playing a short pass i actually prefer my right! Weird that!

One in a million strike.

It's a weird situation. Can't remember any left-footed Chelsea player with good right foot. And even if someone calls Messi into debate, show me goals from outside the box he scored with his right. If there are any goals he scored from outside.

He did chip the keeper with his right peg against Leverkusen...but that one doesn't count because we then dismantled them on route to becoming champions of europe

Still did something with his right .

I'm agree with Manuf. just too rare! When i see him in action it's obvious he is not comfortable with his right unlike Drogba or Lampard whos i saw do odd things with their left!

[Azpinator 2,325]

Only if he wants to be a Ferreria.... No fuck it, he should leave.

One of the first few goals he scored for Chelsea came off his right. He can hit them when he needs to.

[Beigl 1,387]

I think Malouda should leave Chelsea,because he isn´t that creative player like two years ago,the other thing is that he is too slow for a winger.Maybe Anzhi or PSG make an offer...

So you think he is as comfotable as his left on the ball? if so certainly we're seeing things from different aspects here!

BYE!

No. Which is why we call his right foot his weaker foot.

Look, I don't expect him to be a two-footed player like the Brazilian Socrates, but I know he's not totally useless with his right like most people here would imagine.

I didn't say he is useless with his right, all i'm saying is that he doesn't have that grasp and grip over his right foot like Drogba or Lampard have with their left!

The only reason I can see Malouda staying is that the club plan to loan out De Bruyne next season. Malouda has already spent this season largely marginalised and would expect to next season also. He would provide an experienced backup option.

Whereas De Bruyne would benefit from football next season in a stronger league, to hopefully improve ready to come back the following season. I just wonder if he'll perhaps be used as a bargaining chip with teams for a player like Hazard, Hulk or Kagawa?!

However if this was the club's plan, I don't know why they don't sell Malouda and get some money for him. Offer Kalou a new contract and then move him on in a season or two when De Bruyne is ready, and also get some money for him too. Otherwise this way they will simply let Kalou and Malouda leave on free transfers at the end of their contracts.
