Speaking as the new Head Coach, Andre Villas-Boas said, “Tottenham Hotspur is a great club with a strong tradition and fantastic support, both at home and throughout the world. I feel privileged to be its coach. For me, this is one of the most exciting coaching positions in the Premier League. I have had several discussions with the Chairman and the Board and I share their vision for the future progress of the Club. This is a squad any coach would love to work with and together I believe we can bring success in the seasons ahead."

- Spoke to Daniel Sturridge, feeling better, but has Viral Meningitis. Currently still in hospital. Will be monitored daily. Club doctor with him, updated hourly. Hopefully he'll play at the Olympics. Difficult to give a time limit on him, but optimistic.
- Very happy to be staying at the club. Always said he'd accept and respect any decision and is looking forward to working with the group of players to bring more success.
- The pressure of the job will remain the same, a lot of games this season.
- Says the end of last season was 'fantastic' and we have the players to be able to compete again this year.
- Says at Chelsea you always want/need to be able to compete at all levels/competitions.
- Says the 'shadow of Guardiola' will not be effect him, says its been there since day one.
- Eden Hazard is a 'wonderful player', achieved alot for a player at such a young player. Should not forget he is still young, but will hopefully bring alot of creativity to the team.
- Marin will be versatile, which is very helpful for the team.
- Says he is happy with the team, will continue to monitor the market, and if there is any opportunities we will act.
- Would not discuss Hulk, as the price would increase.
- Benayoun and Malouda are still here, and 'will see what happens'.
- Expects Frank Lampard to return fit when he returns to pre season training.
- Happy for Mata and Torres, says hes congratulated them despite it being against Italy. Said Torres winning golden boot is 'fantastic' and could provide confidence to Fernando for the new season.
- Wished AVB good luck and says he'll be a success at Spurs. Isn't surprised that he got a new job quickly.
- On goal line technology vote this week - RDM is in favour, and says 'its just a matter of a time'.
- On whether he'll be here in six/twelve months time, he says he knows managers are judged by results, and its no different for him than anyone else.
- Went on holiday after Munich, which is why the appointment took longer than expected.
- 'Goal' is too win as many games as we can and challenge in all the competitions we are in. 'Priority' is to challenge.
- Drogba was an outstanding player, but we have to move on, and other players will rise to the occasion and fill the gap he has left. On Torres replacing him, he says we have different options with Torres, Sturridge and Lukaku'.
- Transfer market not about how much we spend, but finding the best players and most functional players for our team.
- Training at Cobham until the 14th, then travelling to America.
- Players from the European Championships have 21 days holiday and then return. So the England players are due to return on the 16th, so will start training when the team are in America.
