Cristiano Ronaldo (65 Viewers)

[B3N]

Who are some of the best FK takers in football history? I would also wonder how many of the FKs that Ronaldo has taken over the years that some others wouldnt have even attempted due to the distance from the goal. Is there anywhere online that lists the distance of players FKs and their success rates at those distances? Without a doubt Ronaldos FKs have been legendarily bad since joining Juventus, hopefully that starts to change for the better.

Check out Mihajlovic for distance. Around the box with Pirlo it almost became like pks for us.

He scored a fk? Ok I'm convinced this is it. The world will end this year.

When? Will it be before or after the Covid Infested Chinkwees try to annex Taiwan?

I belive Juninho pernanbucano is one of the best ever. Riquelme was good also as is pirlo, Pjanic..

How can someone that scored 23 FKs in 5 seasons and the all time leading FK goal scorer in the CL be a very poor FK taker?? This is like saying Ronaldo is a shit dribbler and only score goals because he doesnt dribble as much since he got older.

Ronaldo was an amazing free kick taker early in his career, which is where most of those stats come from.

I don’t understand why he changed his technique. He can still hit a fantastic normal free kick when he wants to.

Riquelme once scored two freekicks in the same game for Argentina and if I remember right, one from the right and the other from the left. I think it was against Chile. One of my favorite players.

Either way Juninho is the best

Thanks a lot guys, my knowledge of the history of the game is very limited so it is always appreciated when I can learn to show my son some of the greatest ever at their craft.

Miajlovic Scored a hatrick of freekicks against samp.

Didn’t Simone Verdi score 2 fks in a game, one with each foot? Iirc. That guy is so technically good but such a bust as a player.

#1 Juninho Pernambucano
#2 Sinisa Mihajlovic

Many people tend to agree on this top two. Quite difficult to categorise or rank older players than these because there are no records of conversion ratios.

Lower-profile guys with very good ratios include Juan Mata, Laurent Robert, Enis Bardhi, Shunsuke Nakamura, Pierre van Hooijdonk or Marcus Assunçäo. I'm sure there are many similar specialists out there I haven't mentioned.

Our own Andrea Pirlo, Paulo Dybala or Miralem Pjanic are/were very good. Also very famous guys like Platini, Maradona, Zola, Zico, Rivelino, Riquelme, Del Piero, Roberto Baggio or Ronaldinho.

A personal favourite of mine was Alvaro Recoba. He played for the bridesmaids but his left foot was frightening on any set piece.

Best FK taker is always Del Piero and I can explain why. All the others have perfected one style of kicking, Del Piero could and has done it all: inside of the foot, outside of the foot, far corner, near corner, close range, long range, under the wall, through the wall, curved, not curved, knuckled. You name it, he did it.

Perfect freekick, by the GOAT. He should always look to go for placement and finesse, instead of trying to just piledrive them as hard as he can.

Insane Serie A goal-scoring rate too. Love that we get to witness this legend in our colours on a weekly basis

Finished

@Alen when was last time a Juve striker scored 25 goals in a season? I remember Del Piero and Trezeguet post calciopoli had over 20 both.

Really wouldn't mind him getting an extension

 

[Snobist]

Can he score 10 more to reach Higuain?

I dunno its a tough task, 8 games left including lazio, atlanta, milan and roma in there so not the easiest of teams.

David Beckham (56)


Juninho (77)

Hitting form at the right time. This team is starting to form and gel nicely.

That's because Del Piero practiced.

 

[Fab Fragment]

Best FK taker was Platini IMHO.
