Not quite good enough and found out playing against the top level of players. However, I wish many of our other players had his pride, heart and determination....

Great servant to the club, but we need to have a fresh and quicker pair of legs in the Poch set up.

I would keep him at least until we've put together a reliable and strong back two. The other central defenders we have were very injury prone last season and Daws probably saved our arses with his fitness and pro attitude, despite his obvious weaknesses.

Dawson is one of the best English type CB's. However with the current obsession with "High Line" it is finding him a little short of pace and technique.

If the team is set up his way and the team are in a battle there are very few better man I would suggest his career would get a boost if he goes to Hull under Bruce and some will ask why he was sold.

To some extent the same rational applies to Caulker who is slightly better than Dawson in the skill & speed stakes and is younger but still played ina side under pressure and had to play deaper
