Andre Villas-Boas feels Tottenham Hotspur cannot be considered title challengers just yet, despite a summer of strengthening.

Quadruple

Villas-Boas landed four trophies in one season back in 2011, during his time in charge of Porto, but he believes it would be nigh on impossible for a club in England to achieve such a feat. He added: "It is extremely difficult. Only a Treble has been achieved in English football, and that was by Manchester United. "A quadruple has never happened. It's very difficult because of the demands of the Premier League along with the strong competitions such as the Europa League or Champions League. "It could only be a dream to achieve it with Tottenham, but it is something that can happen in the future. We are building a very, very strong side."
