Tottenham Hotspur boss Tim Sherwood has said that he wants to continue as the club's manager next season amid speculation that he will be sacked in the summer.

Sherwood is widely expected to be replaced in the role despite having the best win ratio of any Tottenham manager in the Premier League era.

Spurs beat Aston Villa 3-0 on Sunday to secure Europa League football in the next campaign.

"Absolutely, I love doing this job, my life would be a lot easier if I wasn't a manager but I want to do it. It's my life, it's what I want to be involved in and continuing doing it," Sherwood told reporters.

"If I had started the season, we would have finished in the Champions League places. It will be interesting to see how I am judged when I meet the chairman. If I do leave, it can't be on results. If I'd have known it would only be for five months, I wouldn't have done it, to be honest.

"I can only judged for the season when I've taken over. A 59% win ratio is second to none. I'm happy with how I have done."

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy criticised the team's performances on Sunday after a frustrating season.
