Tottenham defender Vedran Corluka admits clashing with a home fan during victory over Stoke City.
The Croatian had to be dragged away from the confrontation by assistant manager Kevin Bond at the final whistle.
He said: "I told one supporter he was an idiot. He was moaning during the match when he should have been supporting the team. I told him to support instead of criticising. But Kevin did not calm me down, I didn't need calming down."
Bond insisted that there was never any danger of Corluka repeating Eric Cantona's infamous kung-fu kick on a Crystal Palace fan in January 1995.
"I don't think he has that in him.
'I think he was going to take a pop at the fan in Croatian. He will thank me later for calming him down.'
