My left foot
Internazionale embarked on Saturday’s game against SS Lazio with no fewer than seven left-footed players in their side: Cesar, Materazzi, Mihajlovic, Favalli, Cambiasso, Adriano and Martins are all footballing southpaws. Recoba and Samuel - who both featured as substitutes - also favour the foot which most players use to stand on, if nothing else. Inter must be the most left-sided team in top-flight world football.
So, trivia addicts can role up their sleeves and enjoy a hit. And pundits who think that the lefties are in league with Satan can point to Mihajlovic and watch the world nod in agreement.
If you can have a balanced side with a majority of right-footed players, the reverse should also be true. Inter fans will have to cling to this hope, even if ten points off the Serie A pace suggests otherwise.
