Whatever he was last year this year he looks finished. Touch and concentration of a 2 yr old.

We were warned that at this stage of his career, unless everything was organised properly so that things happened in front of him rather than all around, he would struggle; but if you were successful in doing that, he'd be very handy. He's been guilty of some unforced errors as well, but given our complete lack of structure it's not very surprising that the former has occurred.

Seems like a signing we didn't need. Has looked very poor so far, can't believe Senderos is any worse?

To be fair, it happens to far better players than him. Just look at Ivanovic for Chelsea. Mainstay and vital component of their back 4 for years. This year dropped after 5 games of being utterly shit and a liability. If only we'd got a proper manager instead of someone who thinks that he's playing FIFA 15.

Been utter shite , Sendaros is resigned to the stiff's for this sack of shit ...

Serious question but does Senderos still show up or does he dial it in like Bogarde did at Chelsea?

He probably facetimes from his lakeside villa in Zurich.

Not as far as I know. He wasn't give a squad number so can't play for us until mid Jan when you can make changes to your 25 player squad.

Was he given number 14 after the 25 man squad submission?

Lescott has been poor so far, but that pass to him yesterday was a disgrace.

How times have changed, we normally got rid of our hasbeens to Albion, now the shoe is on the other foot
He was their player of the season. Most of them were pissed off he was sold to us at the time.
I was told by a Baggies season ticket holder (who knows his footie to be fair) before Lescott had even kicked a ball for us that he's completely lost his pace which is why Pulis let him go.

Well Pullis should be managing England as the Baggie fans voted him their best player last season.

We voted Stephen Ireland player of the season in the past, didn't mean he was that good.
