I like the list of contenders, however, I disagree to the order!

Zico,Platini, Mihjailovic, Maradona and Juninho would make the PERFECT TOP5 best.
Even the author admitted he barely know Zico and that said everything!

Beckham, Carlos and Del Pierro were a bit overated for their freekick skills (too few goals scored out of the number of chances). They will be lucky to make into TOP10

anyone who thinks ronaldo should be in the list are absolute morons, a few free kicks against no-body team in the EPL for 2 seasons is nothing.
I think Del-Piero should be 2nd behind Junihno, It’s a discrace that someone like becham is named before him, he has consistantly banged in free kicks for about 12 years now. I think in his career he would have scored more free kicks than anyone on this list by far. Does anyone know how many?

I think Cristiano Ronaldo should be NO.1 tied with Juninho.

I watched the game when Sinisa Mihajlovic scored the hat trick against Sampdoria, just amazing the game ended 5-3. I like the list and I think Cristiano Ronaldo should not be in the top 10 or even top 20, because he has not earned it yet, he needs to score more goals from free kicks to get there.

I like that the list is more about how many goals from free kicks rather than just how popular players are.

Beckham shouldn’t be on the list for one simple reason, he always took the flashy unreliable option. Fine he did score a few good free kicks but during his time at Utd. he wasn’t even the best taker, Denis Irwin was. It’s just that Irwin wasn’t as pushy about the flash parts of football.

Good choice not to include Ronaldo, standing like u ready for a good spanking doesn’t really count in my books, but he’s certainly potential. I love controversy, and i must add that people make it on a top ten list because their memorable, not exactly because of their conversion rate.
Legendary = Beckham, Juninho, Zico, Koeman et al. Ronaldinho certainly deserves a mention, as do all the players who everyone mentioned, but lets face it – on the big stage, their small fish!!!

You got that right about Juninho but I think Gerrard and C.Ronaldo deserve places in the top 10 as they have both netted some really good free kicks and they are more consistent than Roberto Carlos.

You forgot about Thomas hassler, Ronald Koeman, Ghenghini of the great French side of world cup 82. What about Rivaldo and Rivelino
