Arsenal.com says of him
Kerrea burst onto the scene at the turn of the year after a raft of injuries gave him his chance in Arsenal's back four. The England youth international impressed in an unfamiliar left-back role before settling in on the opposite flank.
Kerrea's strong tackling and athleticism won him plenty of admirers. Thierry Henry was among them after the captain headed home the youngster's cross during a thrilling Carling Cup Semi-Final against Wigan at Highbury.
