Malbranque linked with Liverpool move

Reports today have suggested that Liverpool will make a move for Steed Malbranque in the January transfer window. The Frenchman has been in fine form this season. Man City have also been linked with the right sided midfielder as they have yet to find a replacement for Shaun Wright-Phillips.
Malbranque believes a move to a larger club will help his International prospects:
"I am living with two big ambitions, to play for France and maybe one day with a bigger club in England."

Steed Malbranque is a good example of a foreign flair player who has adapted well to the intensity of the Premiership. When Houiller was manager Malbranque was a target and Rafa also seems to be an admirer of his talents. We could do a lot worse than signing Malbranque for our problem right wing position.

Please post your views.
