Tottenham skipper King wary of attacking Villa trio

Tottenham skipper Ledley King says they must be wary of Aston Villa's attacking trio on Monday night.

Darren Bent, Gabby Agbonlahor and Emile Heskey have struck 11 goals between them this season and King is well aware of the Villa front three.

"Darren did well while he was here and he's a proven goalscorer," he told the Spurs website. "He has scored goals at every Club he's been at.

"I've played against Emile many times over the years. He's a handful, he always has been. He's a great foil for somebody like Benty.

"Agbonlahor has been playing very well too this season. They're a dangerous side, a good counter-attacking side and we are going to have to be at our best to get something from the game."
