Ugo all set for Daggers test

Ugo Ehiogu expects to see our Spurs XI tested in Saturday's friendly at Dagenham & Redbridge.

After returning from the National U21 Tournament in France, the lads will now pit their wits against a Daggers side just a week away from kick-off in League Two.

"I'm hoping to see a physical and tactical game that will ask questions of our players," said coach Ugo.

"They have to earn the right to compete before they can do all the silky stuff and I look forward to that.

"Dagenham will be fine-tuning before the start of their season and we want a test. What you always look for in pre-season is a good run out, no injuries and seeing the players attempt to execute the right things at the right times."

Ugo has been happy with pre-season so far as he continues preparations for the Barclays U21 Premier League - our season begins against West Ham at Stevenage on Monday, August 18.

"The players have been good, it's not been a huge transition for them from the Under-18s and it's about them developing and trying to get to next stage," he said.

Spurs XI squad: Voss, Ball, McQueen, Lesniak, Sonupe, Winks, Miller, Onomah, Lameiras, Carroll, Ceballos, Oduwa, Akindayini, Obika, Coulibaly.
