#3 Paul Scholes
Paul Scholes is one of the greatest midfielders of all time to have ever played in the English top flight. Even legends like Zinedine Zidane and Andrea Pirlo had only praise for the midfielder.
Scholes was one of the footballers in the famed 'Class of 92' batch coming up from Manchester United's academy. Under the tutelage of Sir Alex Ferguson, he shined the brightest among them and left an incredible mark at Old Trafford.
Scholes racked up 711 appearances for the Red Devils, scoring 152 goals and providing 74 assists.
Scholes was also known for his set-pieces, which used to put the defending team in jeopardy. He was known for his pin-point accuracy and power from set-pieces, which was a lesson for players like Cristiano Ronaldo.
#2 Cristiano Ronaldo
One of the players with the most active free-kicks to his name is Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese legend climbed to the top during his tenure at Manchester United. He has now returned to his former club in the summer transfer window.
Cristiano Ronaldo is undisputedly one of Sir Alex Ferguson's best students as the legendary coach has himself claimed many a times. With 124 goals and 69 assists, the Portuguese great is still racking up numbers for United.
Although he is currently inconsistent with free-kicks, Ronaldo was a sensational free-kick scorer in his earlier stint at Old Trafford. He knew how to score free-kicks from anywhere due to his power and the ability to bend the ball both ways. His famous knuckle ball used to leave goalkeepers rooted to the spot, much to the amazement of his fans.
Ronaldo is of course a penalty specialist, hardly missing a few in his career.
#1 David Beckham
'Bend it like Beckham' - there is even a film dedicated to the unique trait of David Beckham. It comes as no surprise because no one else for Manchester United can make the ball move as much as Beckham did in his career.
David Beckham was known for his set-pieces, especially his ability to put vicious balls into the box. He knew how to swing the ball like no one else and scored some absolute screamers from absurd angles.
Beckham was another member of the famed 'Class of 92' who was pivotal for Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson. He racked up 85 goals and 101 assists for the Red Devils before deciding to move to Real Madrid.
