Tottenham Hotspur sack interim manager Cristian Stellini after less than a month in charge
Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League table, six points behind both Newcastle in third and Manchester United in fourth.Spurs won one, drew one and lost two games after appointing Stellini, who acted as Conte's assistant during his time as manager.
Former Spurs and England midfielder Mason, 31, returns to the helm for the final six games of the season.Stellini apologised for the defeat at Newcastle, saying the performance was "unexpected". "It went so badly because we were not prepared enough to play an important match," Stellini told Sky Sports.
Stellini's tactical decisions had drawn the ire of Spurs fans during his brief tenure, particularly when Sanchez was brought on as a substitute in the 35th minute during the 3-2 defeat against Bournemouth and then booed when he was taken off in the 58th minute. "It sums up this club for the past 10 years. The recruitment side is a shambles and the players are not playing like they are supposed to play - you can see that the dressing room is completely split, there's no spirit in this side whatsoever.""If you are the owner, you are accountable for what happens within the club. You need to make sure all the tools are being given to the management for the football side.
