Shrimpers sign Gilbert

From Wikipedia:

Kerrea Kuche Gilbert (born February 28, 1987 in Hammersmith, London) is an English footballer who plays as a defender for Arsenal. His given name is pronounced "Kerry". He is a strong and athletic right full-back, who can also play on the left.

Until 2005-06 Kerrea Gilbert usually played in Arsenal's youth and reserve teams, as left-back. However, after injuries to various members of Arsenal's defence, Gilbert was drafted in as cover. He made his debut on November 29, 2005 against Reading in the League Cup, and on December 7 he played in a UEFA Champions League match against Ajax Amsterdam, coming on as a substitute at left back for the injured Lauren (who in turn was covering for the injured Ashley Cole and Gaël Clichy).

With Arsenal's injury problems continuing, he started in Arsenal's FA Cup win over Cardiff City on January 7, 2006, which was the start of a six-match run of appearances. He made his FA Premier League debut on January 21, 2006 in a 1-0 away loss at Everton and played in both legs of Arsenal's League Cup semi-final against Wigan Athletic, in which he contributed to the first Arsenal goal by crossing to Thierry Henry, who headed home; Arsenal lost the tie on away goals after drawing 2-2.

However, Gilbert was himself injured in Arsenal's 3-2 home defeat to West Ham United on February 1, 2006, and was ruled out for two months, ending his run in the team. As of April 2006 he has played nine times for Arsenal.
