Villas-Boas coy on Tottenham transfer plans
Andre Villas-Boas is unsure whether Tottenham will make any more signings before the end of the transfer window.
The Portuguese manager was busy in the close-season, bringing in Brazil international midfielder Paulinho, Frenchman Etienne Capoue and Belgian winger Nacer Chadli, as well as striker Roberto Soldado for a club-record fee.
Villas-Boas is reportedly interested in bolstering his squad further with another defender ahead of the September 2 deadline, especially after Danny Rose had to be replaced in their 1-0 win at Crystal Palace on Sunday due to a thigh problem.
However, the 35-year-old kept his cards close to his chest when asked about his plans after the match at Selhurst Park.

Soldado set about repaying some of his reported £26million price tag by scoring the winner from the penalty spot in his Tottenham's Premier League opener.
