Tottenham chairman Levy: We're trying to give Conte the best players we can afford

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has insisted he is doing everything to build a great team at the club.

Levy has come in for criticism from the fans this season, given the comments made by coach Antonio Conte about the club not spending enough to compete with other Premier League giants.

However, Levy vehemently denied that he was not doing all he could to secure top players.

But speaking on the Premier League production 'Daniel Levy: Building a Home', the Spurs chairman stated: "I think when you are involved in football the one thing [is] we all want to win, not everyone can win.

"It is very very difficult, we are not in control of what happens every time there is a game. All we can do is give the manager the best players that we can afford.

"Inside there is real emotion. I am just being respectful for the opposing team around me. If we lose, it ruins my whole weekend. If we play bad, it is even worse. If we win, it is great."
