Tottenham Hotspur plan to "shut up" their critics after becoming the first Premier League club not to sign a player during a summer window, Eric Dier has said.
Speaking after Spurs began the season with a 2-1 win at Newcastle on Saturday, Dier argued that few rivals had succeeded in strengthening their teams.
"It's a great challenge for us to shut everyone up, really," he said. "We're going to enjoy that challenge. We've got a fantastic squad here, fantastic players throughout the team in every position.
"To strengthen it is not easy as well. You can look at all the other teams around us -- they might have signed players, but not many of those players that they've signed are better than the players they've already got.
