In the edit mode you can change the free-kick style in order to take them different ways. There's the normal one, Carlos special and also a standing freekick with no run up. Out of all these which is the best one? I normally use the A type (normal one) but I have used the standing one (D type I think) to great effect over the last few nights. I find it easier to use more accurate players with plenty of power rather than bend for the standing ones.

i use B, E or F, i score free kicks often and consistantly, but its up to you and what your comfortable with

I think that B is the easiest to use.

Is B the big Carlos run-up or is that C? I've never managed to EVER score one of those as it's just off-putting with the mammoth run-up. Anyone putting together a list of all free-kick types?, I'm not at home at present.

ive done this before...

A=standard
B=high follow through
C=carlos style
D=side-on run up
E=beckham style
F=flick follow through (robert style?)

i like F, its new and it works.

with carlos, i pulled off a different free kick. from 28 metres, with the wall on the left hand side, i aimed to the right of the goals, away from the post. i powered up to about half way holding forward. as he struck the ball i pressed r1 and left. it curled into the far corner. Sexy!

scored a pretty bizarre free-kick last night, it was from 45 yards out and I just pumped the ball up to my big CF - he went up for it with the keeper, they both missed it and it sailed into the net 1-0.

I have had that done to me... it stressed me off so much...

I've managed a couple from about 37m with Carlos, usually get them reasonably close.. just aim a good bit to the left, hold forward (and R1?) and get the power bar just over half way. Plenty of curl to the right and it'll go close (maybe!)

FROM HESKEY... HESKEY.. i am still in denial
