Tottenham Hotspur head into the first game of the season against Everton with Matt Doherty and Pierre Emile Hojbjerg surely set to start.
Spurs may not have bought in any particularly glamorous additions this summer, but the signings they have made certainly help to improve their squad.
Hojbjerg should offer Tottenham more defensive steel and discipline, while Doherty gives Jose Mourinho a more reliable option at right-back.
Tottenham will surely drop £23 million man Serge Aurier (BBC Sport) to make room for Doherty.
Elsewhere, Spurs’s side is likely to have a familiar feel to it.
The star names like Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son will almost definitely be selected, while Mourinho has tended to pick Lucas Moura as his first choice right-winger.
Dele Alli looks the most natural option to start in attacking midfield, with Giovani Lo Celso barely featuring over pre-season.
Eric Dier and Toby Alderweireld seem like Mourinho’s first choice defensive pairing heading into the new season, while Ben Davies has now made himself a mainstay at left-back.
