I rate the Roberto Carlos one at Le Tournoi a better one.

For those who don't remember it:

Toe punt.

Ronaldo's that is, not Roberto Carlos'.

[RibbleValleyRover]

What about this one:

[Hughesy]

Its a very very good free-kick but i agree that one of Carlos was better, it curles out and then back in. However this season hats off to Ronaldo he has been world class.

He plays on the left

he plays on the rigggght

that boy bentley

Not really the best struck free kick but one that I like was when we played city once (I think it was city anyway - may be corrected by someone) They put up a wall and Le Saux stood over the free kick. The keeper covered the other side of the wall. Shearer just wandered over to the wall and turned on his heals and ran away - the wall followed him leaving ball to be smashed into the back of the net.

If I watched it again now it might not be that good but in my head as I remember it I like it.

It's not even the best this season. I've seen Elano, Van Persie and Gerrard score better already this season.

You don't seem to get the clever passing free kicks these days, the ones were the taker would dummy a shot and pass the ball starting off a one touch passing move that led to somebody having an easy shot at goal.

I remember a Rovers v Arsenal game years ago when Jack Marshall was manager, we did a brillant passing movement that bewildered Arsenal only for Byrom to hit the post from an open goal ! Funny thing was we never tried it again. I suppose with T.V. at every game these days you could only do it once, in the old days only Arsenal would have been ready for it.

Bentleys against the toon was better....

Very good free kick but I doubt best ever. Also, Ronaldo as a free kick taker is not that great. He takes practically every one and he doesn't score that many. I'd guess at only 3 this season.

[Presty On Tour]

Juninho at Lyon is top of the pops at free kicks. Maybe he hasn't scored the best one but his consistency of scoring them is unreal!

Who is that Celtic player that scored the winner against United in recent years? That was a better free-kick.

And speaking of Juninho....

Le Tissier against Wimbledon.

Ball rolled back to him, he flicked it up and volleyed it into the top corner.

Legend.

The free kick by Rob Carlos agasinst The Jocks is the best ever free kick, it is shades on ronaldo who for me is just a winker

Don't you mean against France?

Perhaps not the best, but under extreme pressure.

french or Jocks ? It could be either, they both wear Skirts

Bentleys against the toon was better....

What he said.

[frosty]

I can't believe it's being compared with the best in the world. It was good, but you see one of them every week in the big few leagues.

As a free kick it wasn't as good as many including Gazza's, Carlos', and a few of Juninho's.

Ronaldo as a free kick taker isn't as good as Pirlo, Juninho, Carlos, Beckham etc....
