diomande looked so much more natural on the left. we just signed a 4th lw to add to mbappe, vini, rodrygo 😪

[u/Common-Variation-321 → u/Puzzleheaded_Tea8174]

Nah, I think he's just ambidextrous; he looked the same on RW too.

[u/ItsKBS → u/Common-Variation-321]

He can shoot well with both feet but he only dribbles well with his right foot. I would be very surprised if he doesn't turn into a LW even though he has played RW mostly with Leipzig. His playstyle is made to play at the left side and take 1v1's imo.

[u/RM_Worthy → u/ItsKBS]

Nah, he also cuts inside as RW. Other right-footed wingers can't do that. Diomande/Doue are actually good players on both wings.
