On January 2009, López was expected to sign during the transfer window with Birmingham City of the English second level, but failed his medical. In the following month, he joined fellow league side Queens Park Rangers for the final 15 games of the season
Why is it, we want Lopez? I keep hearing how good we think he is, based on one free kick at home to Bristol City
Because we like signing players who have failed medicals.

Think we should sign him, always wants the ball and has very good range of passing + vision. Would have been ideal as the anchor player in PS's diamond formation i think

One thing I would suggest is that you shouldn't believe everything you read on Wikipedia, especially if there is no citation.
There was a mention that there might have been a slight problem with his medical in the Birmingham Post (then again there was mention in a couple of papers that HH had failed a medical too :devil: )
I am sure that when we signed him he would have had a medical, unless of course you are suggesting that we would sign a player who had failed a medical.......

No based on the fact that he is a better player than Rowlands, Legiertwood, Mahon, Miller etc
Interesting how you consider Routledge a better player Taarabt as well...in the words of PS he is a Premiership player.
Maybe if you concentrated on the actual game instead of banging your drum goading the opposition fans you'd actually see Lopez is one of the best midfielders this club has had since we got relegated from the PL.
He is better than anyone else we have in that position, able to break up play and actually pass the ball in an intelligent manner. Probably why we released him ;)
His corners were not up to much but we have other players to take them.
Happy to have a player who actually FAILED a medical on his previous attempt to sign for Birmingham. He is okay, because he looks class and scores a great free kick.
But a player who never failed a medical, gets roasted, used as an excuse, because he never scored as many as he should.
Typical.

So, you say he actually failed a medical... Where are you getting that from?
Do you believe everything you read on Wikipedia even without a citation? Who is your source that HH passed his? Are we supposed to blindly believe you on that without any evidence?
And just to show how good Wikipedia is it was actually December when he was on trial at Brum.....
Is Lopez good enough to start in our team with the current squad we have?
Is Lopez good enough for a team with promotion aspirations?
Is Lopez a better option in centre of midfield then others in the squad?

Is Lopez good enough for a team with promotion aspirations? Yes
Is Lopez a better option in centre of midfield then others in the squad? Better than both legs and Rowlands(altough different players) IMO
Even ignoring the free kick, Lopez looked better than our other CM's -- more intelligence, vision, ability to see what was needed and to do that -- despite having not played since LAST season (2007-8) and no fully match fit.
Equally comfortable attacking or defending.
Certainly better than Legs, whose distribution continues to be 90% awful.
Other than the fabled 'medical' issue, it would be great to sign him -- he made a noticeable difference in the games he played (except Norwich, in which he looked very unfit, and probably at that stage, was).
