That kid is so obese he would not last 15 minutes of a real game.
Best ever free kick was the one scored by Roberto Carlos that bent right past the wall and then bent left inside the post.
But with free-kicks a lot depends on the type of ball used and that has changed many times over the years.
Up until last weekend he hadn't scored a free kick in over a year. Although he was the first one I can remember hitting the ball with the side of his foot to get the ball to move a lot in the air - the one that stands out was against Pompey when David James was in goal.
I think for pure excitement (and relief), my favourite's Beckhams against Greece
As for best free kick taker... Not sure. Maybe someone like Shearer or Pearce. No nonsense free kicks that were mostly on target and a lot of the time unstoppable!

He was another that was hit and miss though. His free kicks were spectacular, but they were largely inconsistent. The ones he got right were excellent though.
