Strevens’ Daggers smashed seven goals past poor Oxford City last weekend for a third win in six games to move into the top half.
Josh Rees hit a hat-trick and Inih Effiong took his tally to ten goals in ten games in a 7-1 rout of the Hoops.
The former Eastleigh boss is pleased with how the Daggers have found more consistency to their performances and results – and that’s exactly what the 43-year-old wants them to keep focusing on.
“I spoke to the boys about it before the Oxford game, about the type of group and people we are,” Strevens told The NLP.
“Some people like to hear praise but I feel like we always need to be on our toes and don’t want to hear any of that. It’s, ‘we’ve got to be better’.
“People say you’re not doing good enough? Alright, we’ll prove that we are. That’s just how I like to do things. It’s probably coming through the way I did as a player in Non-League, not through an academy, I’m that type of person.
“I know the type of boys we recruited this summer, that was the characteristics in them. Some have come with points to prove for this season.
