James Chester: 'Tom Huddlestone arrival is massive'

By , Senior Reporter
Hull City defender James Chester believes that the signing of midfielder Tom Huddlestone is "massive" for the club.

Hull City defender James Chester has admitted that new signing Tom Huddlestone will prove to be a valuable asset throughout the season.

Huddlestone has arrived from Tottenham Hotspur, and Chester believes that the England international will play a vital role as the Tigers attempt to remain in the Premier League.

The 24-year-old told reporters: "I think it was important to make some signings, especially the quality of Tom Huddlestone that we have brought in.

"I think he is a massive signing for us because when we are under pressure, he has the ability to keep the ball and look after it for us."

Hull are currently in 18th position after the opening three Premier League fixtures of the season.
