Senior I upset becomes more rowdy (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

noisier

'more rowdy' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'senior i upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'senior'+'i'='seniori'
'seniori' anagrammed gives 'NOISIER'.

'becomes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for noisier that I've seen before include "More rowdy" , "Perhaps more disturbing" , "Less quiet" , "More loud" , "Louder" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
