BIRMINGHAM, England - Switzerland defender Philippe
Senderos has agreed to join Premier League club Aston
Villa on a two-year deal. The 29-year-old former Arsenal
player, who has been selected in Switzerlands 23-man
squad for the World Cup in Brazil, played 117 matches
with the Gunners and spent loan spells at AC Milan and
Everton before joining Fulham in 2010. He moved to
Valencia on loan from Fulham in January this year.
Senderos said "there will be a lot of competition for
places with Ron Vlaar, Ciaran Clark, Nathan Baker and
Jores Okore also very capable Premier League defenders,
so it will be up to me to fight for and to earn my place
in the team." Senderos is Villa manager Paul Lamberts
first signing of the summer.

it seems like the spot we want him right now.

into what happened Saturday at Torrey Pines," Woods said
Tuesday after an 18-hole exhibition for past winners of
the Dubai Desert Classic.Canadian Tyler Varga is eager to
show he can do more than just run over people.The 21-
year-old Yale University running back will strut his
stuff next week in Mobile, Ala., at the Senior Bowl, the
annual showcase event for top NFL draft prospects. Varga
will begin practising Tuesday with the North team — led
by head coach Ken Whisenhunt of the Tennessee Titans —
before suiting up Jan. 24 at Ladds-Peebles Stadium to
face a South squad coached by Gus Bradley of the
Jacksonville Jaguars.The NFL Network will broadcast the
game and daily practices, which will be conducted under
the watchful eyes of NFL and CFL scouts, coaches and GMs.
And the five-foot-11, 224-pound Varga definitely wants to
give them something to talk about.Everybody labels me as
a power back and inside-the-tackles runner but if given
the opportunity I think I can do some work on the outside
as well, Varga told The Canadian Press via telephone from
Bradenton, Fla., where hes preparing for the Senior Bowl.
Even though Im a big back Ive got pretty good feet, I
think I can surprise people with my speed.Thats something
I want to show.Varga is just the second Yale player to be
invited to the Senior Bowl. Offensive lineman Walter
Clemens was the first in 1951.Im really excited about it
but Im trying not to let my emotions get the best of me,
Varga said. Its a good opportunity to put Canadian
football on display a bit and show weve got talented guys
north of the border as well.Im also very proud to
represent my university because there hasnt been a Yale
player go since 1951. But I think this also shows hard
work doesnt go unnoticed. Its by no means an end, its
just the beginning, but its nice to kind of get your foot
in the door and see that your hard work has paid
off.Varga will have ample opportunity to impress. He said
hell practise at both tailback and fullback.Im in a good
position as far as getting a chance to display my skills
because Im going to be able to show Im versatile, he
said. I think that plays to my advantage.Varga, a
Stockholm native who grew up in Kitchener, Ont., was
dominant this senior season at Yale (8-2) with 1,423
yards rushing and a school-record 26 TDs. Twice he had
five touchdowns in a game — including the winning three-
yard score in a 49-43 overtime win over Army — and ran
for a season-high 204 yards and two TDs in a 45-42
victory over Brown.That secured Varga the Bushnell Cup as
the Ivy Leagues offensive player of the year and a first-
team all-star nod. He also received second- and third-
team All-American honours from The Sports Network and
Beyond Sports Network, respectively.The Senior Bowl kicks
off a long and rather unique job interview for Varga that
will include next months NFL combine in Indianapolis,
private workouts, pro days and player visits. Prospects
will be poked, prodded, measured, timed, tested and
interviewed repeatedly leading up to the 15 NFL draft,
slated for April 30-May 2 in Chicago.Many people Ive
spoken to say its the longest year of your life trying to
prove yourself, get your feet wet and get noticed to
hopefully stick with a team, Varga said. But the approach
is definitely taking things one day at a time and thats
something Ive been able to take away playing at Yale
because the process was always a huge thing with our
team.Instead of trying to look at the end goal all the
time you have to look at whats next 200 feet in front of
you. If you execute and dominate that 200 feet, then you
can go on to the next 200 feet.dddddddddddd. If youre
successful every step along the way youll find yourself
standing in the position you were hoping to be in at the
beginning. Its really just one step at a time, not
letting things or people distract you and working
hard.But being invited to the Senior Bowl is an important
first step as 84 of the 110 players invited to last years
game were drafted. This season all 32 NFL teams visited
Yale to see Varga, the fourth-leading rusher in school
history (2,985 yards) who had 17 100-yard games and three
200-yard contests over his three seasons there.Also of
note, Varga had no fumbles among his 245 touches this
season.All Im asking for is a chance to show what I can
do, Varga said. Im pretty confident if I do get a chance
with a team theyll see what kind of a worker I am and the
focus, dedication and passion I have for the game.I just
need a look and I think I have the ability to make a good
impression.Varga began his college career at the
University of Western Ontario and was named Canadian
university footballs top rookie in 11 before transferring
to Yale.When I transferred I set some goals and I
achieved them all, Varga said. This year all the things
that were accomplished I think were realistically in
sight for me and my team at the beginning of the season.I
was pretty confident in my abilities, I just had to go
out there and basically execute and play like I know how
. . . and we were able to have success from that.But
Varga prides himself in being a complete running back who
can also catch passes and excel in pass protection.Our
scheme was pretty complex in terms of pass-blocking
responsibilities for the running back, Varga said. I
understood it very well which I think that gives me a
little bit more of a head start . . . I had multiple
reads in my pass-blocking assignments on any given
passing play.Not surprising, Varga is also coveted by the
CFL. The leagues scouting bureau ranked Varga fourth
among the top-15 prospects for this years draft and the
first skill-position player after offensive linemen Brett
Boyko (UNLV) and Alex Mateas (UConn) and defensive
lineman Daryl Waud (Western).Vargas top priority is
playing in the NFL but hed have no qualms plying his
trade in the CFL. As a youngster, he even attended some
Toronto Argonauts home games.Id be more than happy to
come back and play in Canada, he said. Thats a proud
accomplishment as well.Its a great league to play in.When
Varga finishes playing football he wont necessarily be
done as an athlete. He admits the idea of being an
Olympic bobsledder — following in the footsteps of
former CFL running back Jesse Lumsden — is intriguing.Im
someone who always needs something to work towards, he
said. Once my football career is over and if Ive still
got some juice left in the tank I might want to try
something different and that would be kind of cool.Ill
worry about that much later but its something thats
interesting, some fact to maybe throw out there.Whats
much more definitive, though, is Varga pursuing a career
as an orthopedic surgeon once his days as an athlete are
over.At some point down the road I want to apply to
medical school, he said. But I wont try to do both at the
same time.Im the kind of guy that whatever Im doing I
want to do 100 per cent. I want to do it as well as I
can.
