Ange Postecoglou said he “didn’t like what he saw” during a confrontations with Tottenham supporters after the 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth.
Toothless Spurs were comfortably beaten on the South Coadt courtesy of Dean Huijsen’s 17th-minute goal in what was their sixth defeat in 14 Premier League games this season.
In the immediate aftermath of the game, Tottenham fans were seen voicing their frustration from the away end at the Vitality Stadium, with the Australian pointing at them and marching over.
Words were exchanged before a steward diffused the situation and waved the 59-year-old away.

“They’re disappointed and rightly so,” said Postecoglou in his post-match news conference. “They gave me some direct feedback, which I’ve taken on board.
“I didn’t like what was being said because I’m a human being but you’ve got to cop it.
“I’ve been around long enough to know that when things don’t go well you’ve got to understand the frustration and disappointment. And they’re rightly disappointed because we let a game of football get away from us. But that’s OK. I’m OK with all that.
“All I can say is I’m really disappointed and I’m determined to get it right and will keep fighting until we do.”
The defeat leaves Tottenham 10th in the Premier League with only five teams in the top flight losing more games than them.
“It comes down to us as a collective being a lot more determined to control a game of football and not let the opposition take control,” added Postecoglou.
