Tottenham caretaker boss Ryan Mason concedes missing Europe is frustrating.

Despite their 4-1 win at Leeds, Spurs finished the season outside the European places.

Mason said, "It is the end of a disappointing season. But all we could do was come here, take care of business and win the match. We have done that and shown a lot of character. I am pleased with the win and performance but disappointed with the season.

"The pitch was longer than I've seen in a Premier League game. There was no water on it. We expected that. To play the football we did... I thought the first goal was outstanding and we had some excellent passages of play. Our front players were outstanding again and to score four away from home was a massive positive.

"Harry [Kane] is a remarkable person, first and foremost. As a player, it speaks for itself. A 30-goal Premier League season is an incredible achievement.

"This is Tottenham Hotspur. We expect to be in Europe. The league table doesn't lie. We are there for a reason. It is important over the summer that we understand why we are in this position and come back stronger."

On his future, Mason added: "You are asking the wrong person. For everyone's sake, it is important the club makes the right decisions."
