ESPNsoccernet - England - Gunners boosted by return of Clichy and Senderos

Arsenal duo Gael Clichy and Philippe Senderos made comebacks from injury in the reserve-team victory over West Ham at Upton Park.

Neither defender has played in the first team this season, and full-back Clichy came off at half-time as planned to protect his foot injury. Switzerland centre-back Senderos, who suffered a shoulder injury in the World Cup game with South Korea, played the entire match.
I wouldn't stick either into your lineup just yet, but again, it is something to note and look out for. When healthy, what is Arsene's first-choice back four? Eboue and Toure, sure. But does Senderos start at center back and if so, does Gallas play on the left?

    Just an educated guess here, but I suppose somewhere in the contract talks gallas would have made it clear that he wants to be a centre back, and arsene might have agreed, once the wing backs are back;which is now.

    Im guessing eboue and clichy on the flanks, Gallas +1 in the centre.
    After all Gallas has always made it clear that he hates being left back.

    That would be handing a large amount of power to one player -- I'm not sure Wenger would have taken such a deal, especially after dealing with Cole.
