Not sure about this guy at all, but if he signs will give him a fair chance:

Liverpool edge closer to signing French midfielder Sylvain Marveaux

• Left–sided player undergoes medical at the club
• Marveaux set to move on free transfer from Rennes

Liverpool have moved closer to signing Sylvain Marveaux on a free transfer after the French midfielder underwent a medical on Merseyside.

The 25-year-old is out of contract following five seasons in the Rennes first team and has been linked with a move to Anfield since January.

Talks took place between Liverpool officials and Marveaux's representatives when Roy Hodgson was manager, although the club's director of football Damien Comolli has overseen the transfer and interest has not waned since Kenny Dalglish took charge.

Marveaux made only 10 appearances for Rennes last season due to a serious groin injury but, providing he passes the medical, the left-sided midfielder is likely to become Liverpool's second capture of the summer following the arrival of Jordan Henderson from Sunderland.

PS. He was naturally a CM

so how many times is that now? surely there has to be a limit on how many times we can sign this guy

I'd be VERY shocked if this one didn't happen. I'm getting a bit tired of the constant to-ing and fro-ing though. 1st July is approaching though, so i'm sure we'll hear something concrete soon.

How many centre mids do we want / need ? Don't believe this til I see him in a shirt , ideally a RED one at that. So much media gubbins at the moment , really is silly season!

He's not a CM, he's a winger.

He would be a good buy if we can get him on the correct wages. Hopefully we are not to ransom again with the likes of Joe Cole and Milan Jovanovic who are believed to be on very high wages. For once we will see how Damien Comolli will handle free transfers as what I can see is that most free transfer players are demanding quite a high wage as to compensate for not paying any transfer fees...

Just My Opinion
YNWA...

Hopefully with the capture of Sylvain Marveaux , there will be more to come from the French Ligue 1. Of course there are just average players that were signed from that league but there are also awesome players being signed from there who have made a name in Premier League. And from what I notice, players from Ligue 1 does not cost as much as compared to players from La Liga and Serie A. A good example is :- Michael Essien. As much as we dislike him , I can say that I really admire his style of play and detemination. He does not shy away from challenges and is not afraid to go forward and even taking shots at goals. To me he is more important than Frankie Lampost.

Is he going to be our 'marquee' signing for the summer?

marquee lol. he's just gonna sit on the bench hopefully he'll an okay option at times next season

On the bench? More like the medical table.

Him, Agger, Fabio and Aqua if he returns can team up to create their own version of the Fantastic Four called Marveauxs Marvels - See How They Break!

Ahh its too early
