With over 300 appearances for the club Dean is the embodiment of MK Dons. Handed the captaincy for the fourth consecutive season, Dean is the definition of an ever-present player.

Since taking the captain's armband following Keith Andrews' departure to Blackburn Rovers, Dean has matured into a leader both on and off the pitch and commands the respect of both players and management alike.

Born in Kingston, Surrey and having graduated through the Dons Academy, Lewie has been with the Club for 14 years and passed 300 appearances during the 2009/10 season.

Widely regarded as the best left-back in League 1, Dean is a bull in the tackle, comfortable in possession, strong in the air and deceptively quick over the ground. He is also more than a little useful at the other end, packing an almighty punch with his left foot, sometimes even his right, and the deliverer of a deadly set-piece.
