Contradiction?

Latest comment: 14 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This article contradicts itself. At the top we have "Greening's favoured position is as a left-sided attacking midfielder", but in the "Style of Play" we have "Although naturally right-sided, Greening can operate anywhere across the midfield.[31]". He can't really be naturally right-sided and favour being left-sided, it's a bit of a contradiction. Though he is really a defensive midfielder now it would be way better if the internal consistency worked. Chavster01 (talk) 21:23, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I think the article means that he's naturally right-footed, since it's not really possible for someone to favour a football position by nature. Furthermore, I don't think we can say he "favours" playing on the left without a reliable source, only that he was regularly deployed on the left by Roy Hodgson, who liked to have right-footed players on the left and left-footers on the right. – Pee Jay 21:50, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
