Juninho was sensational, he was complete free-kick taker.
Although Marcelinho was prolific, iirc he was more prolific than Juninho, as I remember one Brazilian poster saying that Corinthians used to defend with 11 men, and than win with a free-kick goal from Neto or Marcelinho.
Than there was Zico, for whom free kicks from 25 meters was like penalty kick.
Brazilians are easily the best free kick taking nation though. There line up is phenomenal.
Currently cannot say, but I like Pjanic, Messi and Neymar in this regard.
Although the little biased kid in me says Mata is the best from short range.
Also this conversion rate thingy is not the best way.
