Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard is grateful to John Terry for committing to his charity match.
Chelsea pair Terry and Didier Drogba have accepted an invitation to play in the already sold-out Liverpool All-Star charity game later this month.
"Credit to John Terry, many people in his position would have turned away and not come," said the Liverpool captain.
"He may get some stick on the day but for me it shows you what type of guy he is for coming and helping out."
