He's a free agent for a reason, players are meant to be played for time on the field, not in the treatment room.

I missed him when he WAS with us, because he so rarely played!
But yes l know what you mean, a great talent.

Still think he could do a job linking up just behind Leo.

Stop bloody moaning!
Well we all know who's fault it was that he didn't get game time after the New Year, and it wasn't his.
He was stuck on the bench when some games were crying out for his skills on the pitch.
He will never wear the stripes again, more's the pity, but what a wonderful time we had when he did and I for one will never forget how privileged we were to see him play for us.

Every time he set foot on the pitch the feelings of excitement soared and I always felt he lifted the team and the crowd. Even his mediocre games contained moments of magic. I would love him back (…and playing!). Not since Wardy picked the ball up twenty yards outside the box and began one of his mazy runs have I felt the buzz of expectation. That alone is worth one more season at least………..

As I have said earlier I think that he would be perfect playing as support to Ulloa at least until CMS is up and ready.

Apart from the fact there is a reason he isn't at a club, what use would he be severely lacking match fitness possibly even fitness in general. He hasn't been training so who knows what condition he's in. Yes he was brilliant even sporadically for us but we can't have passengers.

Reckon he could have played more if that Sunderland bloke hadn't sidelined him.

As a professional sportsman he would have probably kept himself fit and I would think that he has the experience to offset his lack of match fitness which would come back to him very quickly. I would think

Nobody has been able to deliver that side rule pass inside the fullback

Well you would hope so but it's still not the same. Lopez wasn't in as good shape as the rest after his spell on his own whilst the contracts were being sorted over the summer. Without someone else pushing you, youre unlikely to train wuite as hard. Also it depends how much determination he has. Some players can do it, others can't and there has been rumoured questions about his mental state (not that I believed it entirely)

There is no doubting his ability but we can't afford to carry people. If they could work out a good deal that benefitted us then I'd be all for it.

It was the club that released him. It's very telling that he went to the Argus with a please come and get me article in August but was still ignored by the club and not one other club in Europe wants him.

He retired. He would have stayed with us as he had friends here, but with no contract forthcoming he retired. Comprendez?
