Fans react to bizarre Mesut Ozil coat incident during Everton win against Arsenal

Oh dear Arsenal. It was a rather embarrassing afternoon for the Gunners in their quest for a Champions League place as they were outclassed by an Everton side that were forced into a late change.

Micheal Keane was forced out of the starting line-up through injury while left-back Lucas Digne was touch-and-go heading into things.

Phil Jagielka came in for Keane and it was the veteran defender that proved the difference between the two sides.

His early strike from a long-throw undid the shaky Arsenal defence on a day that did little to cement their top four credentials - while boosting the Blues as they made it three Premier League wins in a row.

Mesut Ozil was once again disappointing, and the German international did not take kindly to being substituted.

The former Real Madrid midfielder appeared to throw his coat at Unai Emery in a fit of rage and it did not go unnoticed by supporters watching...

Ozil was taken off with 15 minutes to go.

Everton had plenty more chances to make it 2-0 in the final stages of the game, but could not convert.

It mattered little however, as they safely saw the rest of the match out to claim a big win.
