Tottenham Hotspur custodian Hugo Lloris is looking forward to the start of the new campaign, but has refused to read too much into the club's pre-season wins.
Spurs remained undefeated in their tour of North America and rounded off their pre-season campaign with wins over Celtic and Schalke.
However, Lloris has refused to read too much into the results and said that the wins will only matter if the club can start well in their Premier League campaign.
“Pre-season doesn’t mean a lot and it’s always better not to lose games in the summer”, the French number 1 told the club’s official site.
“Now the league is starting and every team begins on zero points so we need to have a good start.”
