Didn't Wenger think Keown was too harsh on Senderos? I don't think he disrespected him.

Who cares if he is a nice bloke, or shops in Sainburys.

The bloke weren't up to it, he had plenty of chances to prove himself.

Also i heard the same regards Martin Keown, Senderos wasn't interested in listening.

So fine, good luck at Fulham but don't kid yourself he is a loss.

Bet he has a great world cup, and Hodgson will get the best and a bit more out of him, by giving him his confidence back. You only need to look at Duff and Zamora for examples of that.

I find quiet amazing some of the qoutes on here. Big Phil was a good player, nothing more.

I also find it a lttle ridiculous, but to say he was harshly treated??

How do we really know this, and perhaps Roy will get more from him???

I think he should ofbeen ahead of Silverse but basically AW didn't rate after Dogga took him to the cleaners in those three games.

All I hope for is that we sign at least two extremely good C/D before the start of the season. As I thought we were really damn lucky in this dept last season, how TV and Gallas hardly picked up a injury for most of it.

Happy W.C. :barscarf: :barscarf: :?

We'd better ditch all our centre backs then, cos he has done it the fucking lot of them not just senderos.

I think youve hit the nail on the head. Senderos was discarded after a few dodgy performances and obviously wasnt up to it for a club of Arsenal's stature but where you get it wrong is he was harshly treated when you compare this to Almunia, Flappianski, Silvestre, Denilson and Diaby who are equally as bad but seem to go un-noticed and continue to be picked. Senderos gave it his all but wasnt good enough can you say the same thing about Diaby?

I wish that was true but it took Swiss Phil to have his nightmare at Anfield for Wenger to finally see the light that Phil wasnt good enough.
I just wish Wenger had done the same over the last couple of years to Average Al,Denilson and Diaby.Who are equally not good enough
