By Shane Callaghan, Reporter | 07 August 2014

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he still hopes to welcome further new faces to White Hart Lane this summer.

Pochettino has wrapped up the signings of Ben Davies, Michael Vorm and Eric Dier as the Argentine looks to crown his maiden season in North London by securing Champions League qualification.

"I am very happy with the squad but you always want to improve," he told Sky Sports News.

"Ben Davies, Michael Vorm and Eric Dier give balance to the squad. The profile they have is a very good profile for us.

"Tottenham is a big club and why can we not compete for the top four when we arrive at the end of the season? And, one day, to win the league, why not?"

Spurs kick off their 2014-15 campaign by facing West Ham United at Upton Park on August 16.
