Considering the players that are out of contract this summer, there are a few interesting ones.

Some of McDermott's old favourites McAnuff and Leigertwood are available. I wished we had signed Robert Koren 4 years ago, when back in the Championship, and at 33 he's getting on. But players like Kazenga Lua Lua, Chris Burke, Will Buckley and Lloyd Dyer would possibly offer us more than the likes of Stewart? At the back Sean St Ledger or Chris Baird would offer experience partnering Pearce at the back?
Keiren Westwood
Byram - Baird/St Ledger - Pearce - Warnock/C.Taylor
Burke/McAnuff - Murphy - Leigertwood - Buckley/Dyer
Smith - McCormack
Subs: Kenny, Austin, Mowatt, K. Lua Lua, Tonge, Poleon
Interesting freebies?

Chris Baird is utter garbage
Are you irish ???
Westwood a deffo and Buckley I'd take
Nugent has well

Not Irish, just a coincidence there are a few Irish players in the team. Would you take McAnuff or Leigertwood? Just thought it was interesting that there are quite a few free transfers that look better than previous free transfers available. Would love Nugent, but surely he will be offered something for next year with Leicester. Dyer possibly as an impact player.

And would Baird or St Ledger be better than Lees? I'm not sure, but think Lees has been found wanting too many times now

Whether or not he's better than lees is irrelevant to me, is he what we need is.
Everytime I've watched him, always thought only in Britain could a player with so little ability ever make it like he has
Mcanuff
I've always likes has a footballer but signing 32 year old players who have been released by reading is not a road I'd go down
Same with st ledger and leigertwood
These are the no different to the rubbish we've had the past few years
Never has been who are now past it
Not for me

I was crying out for us to sign Koren on a free 4 years ago! Hull bloody nabbed him, he looked good for Slovenia in the WC. Wld jump at the chance of signing
Dyer and Buckley

Buckley is not available on a free. Signed a new deal not so long ago

Standout midfielder on that list for me is Alejandro Faurlin ............ and only 27.

Always worrying getting free's, because we didn't watch them all the previous season, so can only gather the club don't think they are good enough anymore. So why are they good enough to come here?
Faurlin and Eagles stick out for me, but why are they released? Anyone from QPR you could understand being released with their wages though.

H'Gate ............ the last couple of seasons QPR have been utterly overloaded and spent big on players. I suspect for that reason Faurlin slipped down the pecking order.
I remember him from the season they got promoted, great player - certainly at CCC level. Skillful and creative - for me exactly what we're missing.
if we can get him on a free, then it has to be a good signing. Well i'd be happy with it! Be interesting to see what wages he's on?
