Villas-Boas pleads for patience from Spurs fans

Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas has pleaded for patience from fans as he beds down his new-look team.

Spurs are yet to score a Premier League goal in open play this season.

"The only thing I can do is agree with that perspective," said Villas-Boas. "But it is not a concern because when you have this type of quality individually, it can only help you achieve those things in a quicker way.

"It is something that we have to work on but at the moment it is very difficult with the stops for the international duty which most of the players go to. It will come through time and matches. I am very, very confident because the ability is there from all the players."
