Fuchs has to be at the top though. definitely our biggest free transfer signing!

Signed for free & played for free. Both with pivotal roles in a side that finished 2nd in the Championship on 92 points. You make it sound like they got paid £0 in wages for the entire season when in reality they played 3 or 4 games at the start of the season for nothing before signing contracts. Don't get me wrong it was a good thing to do but they certainly weren't better free transfers than Fuchs, Albrighton or Nugent or whoever because of that.

Dammit - I hate it when facts get in the way of a sensationalist post😝

Pretty nuts to think that back four that won the league cost about 5 million in total. They say money isn't everything in life but we were the most severe ever exception to the rule in 2016!!

dooflip Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Albrighton and Fuchs for sure. But if this was a value for money thread the result would be different. They were free yes, but not the best value for money ever. Past and present we have had some unbelievable bargains!
SpacedX Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 I'm sure we got Taggart on a free - and Steve Earle. Er...Junior Lewis.
Gwyn Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Roberto Mancini, just to see him in the Royal blue was good enough for me who cares how he played!!

49er Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Have a feeling that if the transfer had gone through Johan Cruyff would have arrived on a free

Fair point but Albrighton and Fuchs were pivotal in the title win and Albrighton scored our first ever champions league goal, plus the winner against Sevilla. I loved Nuge and he was a huge part of our promotion but Albrighton and Fuchs for me.
urban fox Posted 27 January 2020 Posted 27 January 2020 A tie between Fuchs and Albrighton. We have had some other good ones but in terms of contribution it would be hard to look anywhere past these two. Cambiasso was a great player, but nearing the end of his career, stayed one season then moved on. Marc and Christian have been mainstays of the squad for several years and its not often that you get those types of player on a free

Guest Posted 28 January 2020 Posted 28 January 2020 Gary Taylor Fletcher getting a mention - what impact did he have? Pukka sales soared I guess
