Big deals have been done, Premier League clubs are wrapping up their pre-season tours and it's only 11 days until the new season. But who's counting?

Standard Sport spoke to Spurs Show's Mike Leigh to get the Tottenham fans' perspective ahead of the new campaign.

What's your target for the club's forthcoming season?

The manager has cleared out some of the dead wood that he clearly didn't rate and we assume he is now bringing in players that he actually wants aided by Paul Mitchell and, dare I say, Baldini, who is still on the payroll as I write. It's nice to see that it's the defence that has been strengthened but again the new additions will need time to bed in. Hopefully we wont leak as many goals this season.

As for all rose tinted spec-wearing Spurs supporters, the target like every season is the title! Many of us religiously have a small flutter on us lifting the league trophy year on year as we receive sky high odds in return. Collectively, we are thousands of pounds down in lost bets by Christmas.

Yet again, we will get nowhere near the title aided by another awful home defeat to a lowly side again but fans will dare to dream for exactly three minutes in the season. We will finish 5th again.

Who would you like to sign before the window closes?

Despite the business done so far, we are again in four competitions next season and our squad is not strong enough to fight on four fronts. We still desperately need at least one striker to take the pressure off Harry Kane, a creative midfielder to push Christian Eriksen for a place and a combative midfielder to push Ryan Mason and Nabil Bentaleb. Another attacking wide man would be handy too. If our policy is still buy them young- Berahino from WBA would be a good addition to the team-an eye for goal and top flight experience.

Who's in your Starting XI?

(4-2-3-1)

This may surprise a few but on last seasons form I dont think Walker and Lamela deserve a start on the opening day. Walker will probably be injured anyway. A tight defence but with enough midfield flair to create more chances for Harry Kane

Which fixture are you most looking forward to?

Always the two against the Woolwich Wanderers who we took four points off last season, and also looking forward to the trip to the South Coast vs new boys Bournemouth. Once again we look forward to discovering new cities and towns in Europe that have no vowels in them. Us Spurs fans love a Euro away day.

Which signing are you most excited about?

While we await a marquee signing I'm looking forward to seeing how our three new defenders fit in- if they are any good lets face it with our defensive record they will become instant starters! Ali from MK Dons will probably get some cameos and will be interested to see if Pritchard, Carroll, Winks and Onomah are bloodied in the Europa League group stages

Which young player excites you the most?

Harry Kane is still the player who the nation will have their eyes on. Now into his second full season, will defenders work him out and can he adapt his game to counter that? His goals and work rate lifted the WHL faithful last season.

Who's your most important star?

I hope this season we don't have just the one important player- we have been there before in past seasons with Berbatov, Modric, Bale and Kane. It's simple- our defenders have to start to defend and our midfielders need to create more and chip in with more goals this season. I still think Dembele can be a great player if played in a more advance role in midfield this season. We still haven't seen the best of him. The injury to Hugo Lloris upsetting that it is, may actually mean that he stays at the Lane for at least another season- he again will be crucial in tight games.

Who's the weak link?

Clearly our defence. Last season we had too many defenders not doing their job. We are a young team and we still lack a vocal team leader who can marshall things during the game and lead from example- lets hope he emerges this season from somewhere. Creatively, when Eriksen is off form, the other attacking midfielders need to step up and produce more magic moments for us in tight games. I think Pochettino now has the tools to mould a coherent hardworking and attacking side that can turn teams over on a regular basis

Who will get booed at White Hart Lane?

Well apart from the muppets from down the road, and the deeply unpleasant Chelsea side, I suppose Danny Ings may get a few tuts for turning us down to move to Liverpool. Charlie Adam is also one who still deservedly gets stick from most Spurs fans despite Bale no longer being a Lilywhite.
