Tottenham's Toby Alderweireld not concerned by winless start

Toby Alderweireld insists he is not concerned by Tottenham's winless start to the season.

Spurs have lost one and drawn three of their opening four Premier League games, with Alderweireld having joined from Atletico Madrid this summer following a loan spell with Southampton last season.

The north London club travel to Sunderland on Super Sunday next weekend and the Belgian insists he is happy with the start he has made at his new club.

"In the last home game against Everton I think we played very well," Alderweireld told Sky Sports News HQ whilst on international duty with Belgium.

"The only thing was that we couldn't score, but our game is improving. I think I've had a good start, and I'm feeling comfortable and confident. I'm very happy at Tottenham.

"We have a nice group at Belgium and some of them are here at Tottenham as well, so when I came it was easy. In the first few weeks they helped me. After a couple of days I felt at home and that's important for my game."

Alderweireld's transfer was the subject of a dispute from Southampton, who believed a permanent deal for him was already in place.

Tottenham agreed the switch separately with Atletico and Alderweireld insists he was happy to move to White Hart Lane.  

"It was not only up to me. Atletico had to make a deal with a club and they said 'we have a deal with Tottenham'," he said. "I said 'I'm very happy with that'. My Belgium team-mates helped a little bit, but it was not the main reason to move here.

"It was nice to move earlier than deadline day. The last couple of years were very stressful for me and this time I could sit on the couch and watch it!"
