Walker eyes opening day win

Tottenham Hotspur defender Kyle Walker has revealed that he will only be happy with a win from this weekend's Premier League opener against Newcastle United.

New Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas takes charge of his first competitive game with the club when they travel to the Sports Direct Arena on Saturday.

"To go to Newcastle is always going to be tough but I feel the additions have made the squad stronger, a new gaffer coming in has put his mark on the team and the way we're playing, I think we're going to do well next season," Walker told the team's official website.

"If you asked me now if I wanted a draw, I'd probably say 'no, I want to win'.

"It's good there's a positive feeling around the camp and hopefully we'll go there, get the win and make everyone happy."

Tottenham drew the corresponding fixture 2-2 last season.
