Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte could not believe his side's poor display against Burnley.
The North London side were riding high after defeating Manchester City 3-2 in the league on Saturday.
Post-game, Conte remarkably told reporters: "I don't want to comment on the game.
"I want to comment only on the situation. In the last five games, we lost four times. This is the reality.
"No one deserves this type of situation – the club, me, the players and fans. But this is the reality.
"I came in to try to improve the situation in Tottenham but maybe in this moment, I don't know, I'm not so good to improve the situation.
"I'm too honest to close my eyes and say, 'OK on Saturday we're going to play another game'.
"It's right at the moment to see what the situation is and to make an assessment.
"Also I repeat: I'm really frustrated and I'm not used to being faced with this type of situation. But the problem, I repeat: I'm trying to do everything to change the situation but the situation is not changing.
"Someone has to speak about the race for the fourth place, and the reality from the last five games is we have to pay attention to not fight for the relegation zone. This is the truth. This is the reality.
"And when this type of situation happens, maybe there is something wrong.
"I don't want to close my eyes, I want to take my responsibility, if I have the responsibility. I am open, I am open for every decision because I want to help Tottenham.
"From the first day I arrived here I want to help Tottenham. I repeat: I am too honest to close my eyes and continue in this way, and also take my salary. But it's not right in this moment.
"I think that we are doing everything to change the situation but maybe it's not enough. It's not enough."
