[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 775753, member: 55446"] Easier to pass from right to left for most people, so you're likely to receive cleaner service on the left wing. Right wingers may be better looking for work as a result. Easier to kick into touch from your foot that is furthest away from the touchline, so better to have right-footed people on the left wing and left-footed on the right wing. That being said, the fullback can make up for one of these players. It's also a matter of familiarity. If you spend your life on one wing, then switch to the other, you have to adjust which shoulder you tackle with, which foot you turn on when backpedaling etc. You may accidentally use the wrong shoulder just out of muscle memory.
