Daniel Levy has admitted that all Tottenham can do is give the manager the best players that they can afford in their quest to be a big success on the pitch. Yet to win silverware since 2008 but competing regularly in the Champions League in recent years, Spurs are looking to go one step further and win top honours on a regular basis.
Inconsistency has plagued Tottenham over the course of the current campaign, although they have got back on track in recent weeks with important victories over Fulham and Man City in their top-four quest. Poor performances and defeats do have quite the impact on Levy, who opened up on what he cannot control and his "real emotion" when discussing the club and his position on 'Daniel Levy: Building a Home' which has been produced by the Premier League.
"I think when you are involved in football the one thing [is] we all want to win, not everyone can win," he revealed. "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."
Levy's connection to the team comes from visiting White Hart Lane for the very first time as a youngster.
"My first game was against [Aston] Villa. I came, my great uncle brought me, but it was a long, long time ago," admitted the 61-year-old. "Ever since then I have been a Spurs fan, so I think I must have been seven or eight. The atmosphere, the intensity of White Hart Lane was something special, I used to love coming."
Chopping and changing managers since Mauricio Pochettino's dismissal back in November 2019, Levy has confessed that his ideal dream is to have someone who can be in charge of the team for a good 10 to 15 years.
"Managers know that it is just part of the game that managers come and go," he explained. "But we all dream that we want to have a manager that lasts 10-15 years. It is very, very difficult."
