Despite being unsure of his own future, Tottenham's interim head coach Ryan Mason is refusing to look past Brentford's visit on Saturday.
After serving as first-team coach at the club for the previous 18 months, Mason's future as permanent manager of Spurs is still in question.
Mason, 31, has made it obvious that he wants to lead Tottenham and has hinted that he is prepared to coach, but it is doubtful that he would do so with the Premier League team after they put on yet another shaky performance in last weekend's loss at Aston Villa.
Because Feyenoord manager Arne Slot is the new betting favorite to succeed Antonio Conte, the former Tottenham player could leave in the summer. However, the club's acting head coach is entirely focused on the team's final home game of the season against Brentford.
I'm truly not thinking about the upcoming season, Mason insisted. It would be quite foolish of me to let my focus drift to six or seven weeks from now.Now I know what is going on. I'm confident that my team and I are performing well and giving it our all. There will undoubtedly be decisions to be made regarding the summer or the next season, but we are unsure of what those decisions will be at this point.
"I have faith in myself, my team, and the way I work. I am more confident than I have ever been in what we're doing for this football team, the atmosphere, and the feeling we're trying to evoke here.I firmly believe in it. That is most likely where it (my optimism) originates.
There is less hope among Spurs supporters after Julian Nagelsmann was eliminated from the running for manager last week.
In a recent development, within the first minute of a 2-1 loss at Aston Villa, the visiting crowd chanted for club chairman Daniel Levy to leave the organization.
This Saturday, if Brentford loses, there might be more chanting against Levy, but Mason wants to give the fans something to cheer about.
