Roberto De Zerbi has not forgotten how rival clubs "wanted to kill" Tottenham during last season's relegation battle, but is ready to set "big ambitions" for his new-look team.
A final-day victory over Everton in May ensured Spurs' survival, but owners the Lewis family promised "actions" would follow and a huge rebuild has occurred.
Tottenham's spending will pass the £300 million ($409 million) mark when Savinho joins from Manchester City and Omar Marmoush is expected to follow, the Press **** ociation understands, but De Zerbi has laughed off criticism before Saturday's opener at Brentford.
"For me, no pressure and it's not a problem. I don't know why the people don't love if Tottenham becomes better. It's one motivation more for us. Last season, all other clubs wanted to kill us," De Zerbi said.
"If we have to push, then I will be the first to push to fix the target higher, but now is not the right moment.
