Pep Guardiola chooses the best player in free kicks, it's not Messi or Beckham

Lionel Messi surprised the world after playing his first game with Inter Miami, the Argentine l made a great goal from a free kick in the game against Cruz Azul in the Leagues Cup. His play paralyzed the world and he had a dream debut in his new club.

Pep Guardiola has always said that the best player I've ever worked with is Lionel Messi, he also considers him the greatest of all time. Although the Manchester City manager prefers another footballer as the best for free kicks.

This footballer is the Englishman James Ward-Prowse, who plays for Southampton. He is a midfielder with too much technique and he scored 17 free-kick goals last season. Many compare this player with David Beckham.

Guardiola chose James Ward

(James Ward-Prowse) is the best (foul shooter) I've ever seen or is in the world right now. There is no one who collects better (free throws) than Ward-Prowse. And since he is so good at it, maybe we forget about the quality that he has as a player, that he also has a special quality. He has a lot of quality with and without the ball, and he understands the game very well. But as a shooter from set pieces, from corners and free kicks, he is exceptional. And people pay more attention to that," Guardiola said at a press conference.
