BECK`S!
As much as he loves himself youve gotta admire his accuracy and consistancy in a dead ball situation. There are others that can really hit a ball, Rivaldo, Zola ,Redknapp and others but Knowone comes close to Beckham.

FREE KICK: David Beckham
CK LEFT: David Beckham
CK RIGHT: David Beckham
SPOT KICK: Allan Shearer or Baggio(Joke)

Free kick and Beckham??????

In free kick there are just two players that are the best: Mihajlovic and Roberto Carlos!

Partizan - your mad
Sure Carlos can take a free kick but When Becks crosses or shoots you know the chances are good that it`ll find the back of the net.

Just look what he done to Byern!

No, you are mad!

I'll tell you one thing my friend, the best league is the world is surly in Italy. And if you don't know - percentage of Mihajlovic free kicks is almost 50%, and that is the best in the world. And he is the best in history of the Serie A too.
Beckham is good, he is very good, but he is not the bast at free kicks.

50 percent accuracy on free-kicks for Mihailovic? Is this something that was documented or did you just make that up? If its true I take my hat off to him...

I think Moravcik is good with deadball situations.He has great vision and he is an accurate crosser.

I think that Beckham is not so good in dead ball situation.he's just good in crossing balls,Rivaldo is the best dead ball specialist ever.
and the best spot kick taker must be Dennis Irwin.

PolishPower,

no I am not joking, that is true, It's not exactly 50%, is about 48%. And I think he is better than Roberto Carlos. For sure, no doubt about that.

I think moravcik is rather lethal from the wing and plays in some class balls

Yeah, Mihajlovic scores almost one every game or he assist to antoher player, what about Carlos. They are both very good, but Mihajlovic is certalnly the best at the moment.
One football expert recently said, that Mihajlovic is better, because Carlos just have powerfull shot, on the other hand Mihajlovic is very accurte and technically on higher level.

beckham isn't an all round player n u can forget about comparing him to rivaldo.....he is only good at crossing the ball n he seldom scores from free kicks nowadays....
he also isn't veri creative..if u have seen the england v scotland first leg, beckham repeated the cornerkick set piece 3 times in a row towards the end of the 2nd half

Beckham is an excellent player. Not all around, eh? One thing that I can say in favor of Beckham is that he has scored from the half. That is impressive. No doubt that Rivaldo and Roberto Carlos are good, but I think that David Beckham cannot be said to be inferior. He is a master of the curve and can curve any ball around any wall. Ronaldo has on a few occasions kicked right through a wall, but I think that Beckham is easily the best.

Swarthy Englishman thankyou, Finally some one with a bit of football sense.

But you`ll be crying after we beat you 3-1 at wembley.

Beckham easily the best, well he is good but easily the best?
Why don't you Englishmen realize the world does not begin somewhere in London and ends at shores of the English Channel ??

I don't know if you guys know Branko Strupar, but when he takes a free kick from a good position, you'ld better place 2 keepers in the goal http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
