Tottenham became first club in Premiership which did not buy anybody on transfer window ever.
They have good team, but still, every team needs some freshness for the new season.

Anyway. let's see. They looked pretty good against Newcastle.

They probably think their biggest signing was to keep the entire squad, especially Harry Kane, I thought he was going to a big club (like Real Madrid) after his great performance in the WC.

I wonder what Daniel Levy's plan is. He's prolly gonna sell some key players after this season is over and start investing in young talent again. One thing I like about them is they're like Dortmund in a way. But that won't win them trophies.

Daniel Levy probably thinks this team is capable of accomplishing big things like winning the Premier League... But unfortunately, and this is just my opinion, big things for a club like Tottenham would be finishing 3rd or 2nd in the EPL, finalist of the FA Cup, or quarter-finals in the CL, I just don't see them winning a trophy, this club has lost that magic from the 60s or the 80s when they were used to winning league titles, league cups, and even European cups.

And this is why I think this will be the last season that we'll see the likes of Kane, Dele Alli, Eriksen, etc, in the club. At some point these players need to realize that they're wasting their potential in a second-rate club like Tottenham, and sooner or later they'll know that if they want to stand out in the football world (and even get a bigger salary, in case the financials becomes an issue, which I doubt), they need to go to a bigger club.

I believe at the end of the season Levy will finally realize that these guys are worth hundreds of millions, so they could make big profits next year if they decide to sell all of them, and they could to invest in young and promising players, like you said, and start afresh. I doubt he's going to wait until Kane or Eriksen are way past their prime to finally sell them.
