Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou admits they could go shopping in January.
Spurs have been hit by several injuries in recent weeks.
Postecoglou said: "We're not sort of ruling out anything. What you've sort of outlined there is the best case scenario, that if everyone else who is here stays fit.
"Which hasn't been the case so far. We may be forced to. There may be no choice on it. Again, not going into January, but we've got some sort of specific ideas about what we're going to try and do for sure but at the same time, depending on how things go between now and then and how the recovery of guys is, we may need to make a different kind of decision.
"But all that work has been done so we're ready either way. "
