Hull City defender Michael Dawson has paid tribute to Chelsea icon John Terry.

Dawson is set to captain Hull against Chelsea tomorrow - meaning he will shake hands before kick off with Terry.

Dawson said he is grateful to the Chelsea captain for helping him when he was first called up to the England squad in 2010.

He said: "I realise how good he is now and how good he has been for many years.

"He was England captain when I first went in. You talk about senior players looking after younger lads and he made feel really welcome.

"Look at his record as a player and it speaks for itself."
