  Nice article here talking about some of the more interesting (number 6 is a treat) and successful free transfers over the years.
  
  Who are the best players your club have signed on a free?

  For me as a Manchester United fan it's gotta be blanc we really need a good centre half and he was perfect for a few year but not many good free transfers in my lifetime at united apart from Owen and that was worth it just for the goal against city lol

  That is because you can afford to pay for who you want!
  
  Nice problem to have :)
  
  Blanc was good though.

  I think that just for sheer impact it has to be Sol Campbel to Arsenal. He had a lot of options and he lived up to the hype. He took the torch from a very successful defence and ran with it without breaking a stride.

  i think campbell is the best free signing ever because he was one of the best in the world, they saved 20mil and he really did replace a legend very easily.

  I also think that both west Ham and man utd got great use out of Carlos tevez for nothing. He almost s:angle handedly kept west ham I the division and was an integral part in a premier ship winning team at utd. Even if it was one of the messiest contracts in football history to understand.

  I think united spent about £15m in loan fees for Tevez, so not quite free.
  
  And didn't west ham have to pay Sheffield utd £20m+ for sending them down with an illegal player?
  
  Yep, messy
