West Ham United prospect Matt Fry was delighted to play with former Hammer Christian Dailly while on-loan at Charlton Athletic.
Fry enjoyed a productive spell on-loan at The Valley.
He told whufc.com: "As a player, Christian is the perfect role model in the way he trains and he looks after himself. He is 36 and was still the fittest player there.
"He was great to be around and to train and work with. I got on well with him and it helped me a great deal to do so. He's a top man.
"Christian was recently voted as Charlton's oldest-ever player of the year and he fully deserves it."
