Tottenham caretaker manager Ryan Mason has taken a swipe at Antonio Conte.

Conte left Spurs in April with Mason taking charge. However, results have fallen away under the caretaker.

But he insists: "The results before he (Antonio Conte) left weren't amazing. I don't think results have dipped a huge amount. Obviously we were in a different position but I think you could feel it, you could feel it the weeks leading up to it there was uncertainty and it's never great to have that uncertainty.

"We've probably been in that situation for the last eight weeks where there's been a lot of uncertainty.

"That is why one of my main things when me and my team of people came in, I wanted to create a togetherness and make us feel part of something towards the end of the season and then hopefully to lay foundations to build where we hope and expect this football club and this football team to look and play like in the future."
