Defenders who posses excellent shooting skill

I just saw a replay between Holland and Russia. Any defenders has a better shooting skill than Denis Kolodin? His shot almost from the half of the pitch with such accuracy and power is mind blowing. :thumbsup:
More info about him here

Don't give me all that crap about Roberto Carlos. I'm talking about real good technique, not just random hard hitter of the ball.

Chivu :thumbsup:
Chivu :thumbsup:
Chivu FK's are overrated big time. In all his stay in Roma he only scored two, both in his first season, one against Brescia (his first official game with Roma ever) and the 2nd against Buffon in Turin.

..then mysteriously all his Fk's started to go to one place, the stand.

Seriously when was the last time he scored a goal from a FK? ..and that's not a sracastic question, I really wanna know.
I'm not talking about Free Kick by the way. Riise has a powerful shot but in terms of accuracy I don't think he is at the same level as Kolodin.
Who says that I meant freekicks? Chivu has a good ball control, passing and shooting talent.

PS, search for Chivu in youtube, got some quality goals he scored there.
I just feel like giving some credits to footballer as a whole. After all, football is not just about striker for fancy footwork. You probably didn't even notice him if you're only craving for fancty tricks or goals from striker. Defender who posses great shooting skill is not to many around I believe.

Haven't seen much Chivu's shooting skill from far so can't really comment. Probably others can share their opinion till i found some clips of him.
2 of the better shooters I have ever seen were defenders _ Ronald Koeman & Sinisa Mihajlovic.

Michael Tarnat too.
Pepe, obviously. There's nothing he can't do.

Passarella...a defender that could shot like a god with ball in movement or freekicks...he even dribble and centre great too...he had a shotgun in his head just in case...
Pepe, obviously. There's nothing he can't do.

The distance is not considered very far by footballer's standard. You know what I meant if you watch the Holland vs Russia's match. :)
Pepe :proud:


and how can you say that about Roberto Carlos!

..That is "very far"
Die Kaiser.

Doesn't Alves have a good shot on him too?
