Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele has backed the club's transfer policy of being careful in the market and not changing too many players.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is yet to make a single addition this summer despite selling England right-back Kyle Walker to Manchester City for over £50m.

Sky Sports News understands Tottenham hope to add a new number 10 and right-back to their squad before the deadline but remain relaxed over the situation ahead of the new season.

And from their pre-season tour in Orlando, USA Dembele said: "I think the way we do it is very good. We don't change five or six players every season because that means you have to start over with new players.

"We concentrate on the team we have now. If the team stays like this, we know that we're going to have a good season like last year. The quality we have now; everybody is looking in the same direction.

"We're very positive. For us it's like a family. It's a very good thing to have a group that stays together and understands each other as well.
