andy roxburgh said that senderos was the best under 18 player he's ever seen, this was in the under 18's euros which the swiss won in 2000.. roxburgh was tech director for fifa back then and knows his shit, its a shame he hasnt matured into the player he should be, however... rio at the same age was similar in the mistakes he made although his distribution and confidence were always high.

senderos to me doesnt utilise his physical strength like he should for a centre back, plus the psychological damage from what drogba has done to him over the last few seasons has killed him.. every big striker knows they can roll him and intimidate him.. and for a centre back thats no good. i suppose arsene and arsenal have to take a lot of blame for that as over the last few years they've not really had the types of defenders which can bring youngsters up.. campbell, toure, gallas are not defenders defenders.. i suppose campbell is, but he's not the most talkative of defenders... adams, bould, dixon etc would have disciplined and nurtured senderos a hell of lot more.

Spot on Billy Bob. you need to HTFU at the back and Boss things. Arsenal cares more about distribution from the back! no no no no!
