"Everything Pepe Reina does he does well. He does things in a way that gives confidence to the rest of the team," said Dudek.
"He will come for crosses all the time in certain areas, which takes the pressure off the defence, and his distribution of the ball is better than some midfielders. He can launch the quickest counter-attacks in the Premiership.
"Since he has come here we have always done well - and the two things are not a coincidence."
