    Giggs for me, does more than just dribbling with it.

    Great passes, shots, free-kicks, corners etc.

    When it comes to best left foot rather than best left footed player I chose Nakamura.

    It depends what you mean by natural.

    Messi I think is ridiculously one footed. The thought of him using his right foot probably doesn't even cross his mind.

    Agreed, but neither did Diego. Took away nothing from his greatness. Hagi is another.

    As for the current lot, apart from Messi, I will rate Van Der Vaart very highly too.

    Dead ball, would be Van Persie. The best left footed dead-ball expert I remember is Hristo Stoichkov, top-of-the-mind.

    Rarer still are genuine dual-footed players, i.e. does stuff equally well with both feet. Nedved is one.

    Van Persie is great in non-dead ball situations as well.

    You only have to see his goal against Blackburn in the 05/06 season and his goals verses Blackburn, Wigan, Charlton and Watford in the 06/07 season to see this ok

    Agreed. He is good, very good. And he is with Arsenal, godbless !

    Just that he is not quite the Messi level.

    It depends from what angle you address it - Messi is a far superior dribbler, but Messi could only dream of striking the ball the way that RVP does

    Who is the most 2 footed then ?

    I'd say Forlan is a good shout.

    And Kluivert obviously.

    Hleb always seems comfortable with both feet, he just isn't always particularly good with either.

    Maldini always strikes me as being good with both feet as well.

    Players from the East German school of football are perfectly two footed normally, because they traditionally put great emphasis on it. Ballack, Schneider and Borowski are good examples.

    Zidane, Ronaldo, Nedved were/are probably the best genuwinely two footed players in recent times.

    Currently, I'd say Zambrotta, Ronaldinho, Robinho, possibly Kaka. Can't really think of any others, but I'm sure there are some others.

    Didn't realise VDV was left footed.
