Manager Mauricio Pochettino thinks Spurs are going to be even better this season, despite their lack of transfer activity.
There have been no ins or outs at Tottenham this summer, while other Premier League big guns have made significant investments.
But Pochettino is pleased to have retained the services of a group who have finished third, second and third, over the last three Premier League seasons.
“I am happy to keep all the squad together,” said Pochettino.
“There were many rumours during the summer, about players out.
“The club made a massive effort to try and extend contracts of Harry Kane, just one example.
“The club is trying to finish the (new) stadium as soon as possible.
“It is difficult to understand for people in football that Tottenham didn’t sign or didn’t sell players – but sometimes in football, you need to behave different.
“We are happy with our squad and we cannot improve our squad. It is better to keep our squad all together, we believe a lot in our players.
“(There is) no point to say we will not repeat a season like last year or the season before with more experience, with players who compete at the high level of the World Cup.
“We have the captain of the world champion (Hugo Lloris, with France). That is a fantastic experience, for him to translate to our team.
“Sure, we are going to be better, no doubt about that.”
