#1 David Beckham

David Beckham

Whenever free-kicks come up, the first person you would imagine standing behind the ball, would be none other than David Beckham. On his journey through a number of top clubs, he has produced several moments of absolute brilliance from dead ball situations. Luckily for EPL fans, 15 of those came in his time at Manchester United.

His right foot was meticulously trained to deliver inch perfect deliveries all the time. Every time he stood behind the ball, he often made goal-keepers look almost foolish.

There have been many who has established themselves in free-kick folklore but none more so than the illustrious David Beckham. He scored 62 goals for Manchester United in his time there and at least 15 goals in the league came from direct free-kicks.

His impeccable style and accuracy to match became the benchmark for others to match in the years to come.

Since then, the Red Devils have had the services of Ronaldo who also features on this list, but no one so far comes within an inch of Beckham’s right foot.
