Clive Allen says that Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy is 'not a football man', following the dismissal of Tim Sherwood.

Former Tottenham Hotspur player and coach Clive Allen has said that chairman Daniel Levy 'is not a football man'.

Levy faced criticism for sacking Tim Sherwood this week - the club's ninth manager during his reign.

Allen, who was interim manager of Spurs for one game in 2007, told BBC Sport: "He's a businessman, an incredible businessman, but no, I don't think he is a football man in all honesty.

"Those decisions have come back time and time again to haunt him. It's a very expensive squad and someone has to be answerable for that.

"It's so bitterly disappointing the squad has finished sixth this season and the squad of players in all honesty, are not competitive with the top four teams. A decision was made that a new direction had to be found and I just wonder what that direction is."

Tottenham finished the Premier League campaign in sixth place.
