Antonio Conte is preparing his Tottenham side for their opening game of the season, which will see Southampton travel to N17. The Italian has had a good summer with Spurs, welcoming six new players to his squad and winning two, drawing one and losing one of the pre-season friendlies.
There is still more work that can be done both on and off the pitch but Conte seems to have high hopes for his side, which was seen in his pre-match press conference on Thursday, when asked about his side's chances of winning a domestic cup. "Why not Premier League and the Champions League? (Laughs) My target and the club's target is to improve," he explained.
"It's the process we started seven months ago. If you get a place in the Champions League it doesn't mean you've achieved your target. My experience brings me to say we're going in the right direction. At the same time, I know the club needed another step to be competitive with the top teams in Europe.
