We did some catching up with the Swiss squad as they prepared to face the tournament favourites, Spain. We were lucky enough to get an interview with Fulham's new signing Phillipe Senderos, who renowned as fan of the finer arts.
BWC - Phillipe, many people have made a big deal about your inability to mark Didier Drogba in the Premier League but on Wednesday you could be up against two of the best strikers in the world in Fernando Torres and David Villa, how does that make you feel?
PS - My friend Bizarro, I am reminded of what Jean-Paul Sartre said, 'A lost battle is a battle one thinks one has lost,' so it is simple.
BWC - After starting your Arsenal career well, you went to Everton and have now ended up at Fulham. Has that effected your international career?
PS - Being is in itself. Being is what it is. That is also another quote from my friend Jean-Paul. I have been reading his work lately and feel inspired to play for my country.
BWC - Do you think Switzerland have a good chance of getting through such a tough group?
PS - Voltaire said 'Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her; but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game'
Powerful stuff I'm sure you'll agree, but at that point we decided to try and find someone who would talk to us about football.
