Hull legend Dean Windass 'sure' club can avoid the drop after turning a corner under boss Marco Silva: 'The performance levels have gone up'

Few men have experienced the drama of Premier League ups and downs like Dean Windass has.

The former Hull City, Bradford and Middlesbrough striker has been involved in the Bantams' last-day escape against Liverpool in 2000, helped Boro stay up the next season and scored the goal that fired the Tigers into the top flight in 2008.

So when he says Hull have 'turned a corner' and he is 'sure' they can stay up, you can't help but believe it.
