That's not as easy as it looks, given inverted wingers.

Most right footed players, 'natural side' is on the left.
So a left footers natural side will be on the right BUT will want to cut in.

Perhaps a mind blowing development would be to coach a right footed player to play on their true (for 95% of the history of football) natural side, the right.

Tyler Dibling would work

Should be our #1 target that we go all in for early. Like we did with Gray last summer

Attacking three of Tel, Odobert and Dibling with Solanke spearheading and Gray & Bergvall in midfield could be a pretty future-proof set up.
Moore, Yang and maybe Donley as other young options pushing for gametime too. Melia will hopefully be a consideration for season after next.

I don't think he meant a right footer on the right, just a player whose natural game is to play on the right and tbh there have always been inverted forwards, maybe not seen so much on the British shores but the likes of Maradona, Garincha and the classical dutch sides often played inverted even if not for an entire match. It just makes sense in an attacking sense for a player to cut in and shoot if they are capable.

I get all that..
But I'm talking in relation to this manager. He wants his wide man to stay wide and play mostly on the outside...the reason he signed BJ. There aren't many players that fit that profile...hence my original post.

Exciting player to watch who likes to take men on and can go both ways, looking forward to seeing him progress. 20 years of age and does not lack confidence in his game. Keep it up son.

I like that he's direct. He takes defenders out of position and that's something we've been sorely lacking. Otherwise, teams just set up their lines of defenders in front of their goal which we never seem to break down.

Indeed, defenders have always hated players who can go both ways running at them.

I also liked how he cut in and created havoc a couple of times. Great to have that in the locker and not always having to go for a cross.
