There's this guy that use to have a thing for one of my best friends..nd they just randomly stopped talking to each other..nd now i kinda want to get to know him. he's cute and hes seems really nice. i met him once at a soccer game awhile ago..nd then about 2 weeks again he sent me a friend request on facebook to be my friend. i really want to start talking to him and let him know that i want to get to know him more nd hang out but how should i tell him that without seeming too forceful or anything?

Haha its not being foreful at all...in fact thats a good idea get to know him more see what stuff ya'll have in common. Then ya'll can build up onto more things [as in dating]. :)

Make more convo and flirt.

well, just get to know him better! talk to him. see if you guys have any of the same interests or qualities.

jus talk to him and flirt just dont talk to him like 8 times a day then that would be forceful.

Don't use the word "confront" or "forceful". Just talk to him, and don't be nervous about it. He has to be a friend before anything more. But make sure your friend doesn't have feelings for him. That could cause a bit of trouble.
