Philippe Senderos

Senderos is the kind of defender I find easy to root for: a 189-centimeter Geneva-born center back who left Switzerland as a teenager to anchor Arsenal's back line. Earning 116 appearances and an FA Cup at such a tender age, in a foreign league and language, takes a temperament I genuinely admire. He was never a flashy galactico, but the unglamorous craft of throwing your body in front of strikers is the soul of football to me. What I like most is that quiet, professional steadiness, which matches the dependable image he built on the pitch.
