When managing a cash-stripped club in Football Manager 2011, finding the best free players out there might be the difference between a job well done and… well… a nightmare!

  1. If you enable scottish players you can pick up wonderkid Jordan Woods for around 4k he is 15 years old but his speed and pace outlines his creativness.

  2. Here is another good player he may not be free but you can get him for around 100k name Mitogo he will score you around 20 goals a season a good investment also if you get his fellow country man Balboa he is a good crosser of the ball you will have an awsome strikeforce

  3. Michael Rensing, amazing free keeper,
