It has been a solid start to the season for Tottenham, despite the busy fixture schedule. Antonio Conte's side have won four and drawn two of their opening matches, currently sitting level on points with Man City inside the top four.
Not only do the Lilywhites have some tough games coming up, having to face Pep Guardiola's side on Saturday and Arsenal in a few weeks, Conte is also now preparing his side for their return to Champions League football. Spurs' European group also involves Frankfurt, Sporting CP and their first opponents, Marseille.
Due to the amount of games already so far, the Italian has rotated his team, making five changes in the 2-1 victory over Fulham at the weekend. Conte wanted to increase not only the size of the Tottenham squad, but also improve the quality in the depth of the squad, during the summer transfer window.
