‘Mike Dean…..you owed us more than one’ – Arsenal fans react on Twitter to Mesut Ozil display following Leicester win
Arsenal beat Leicester City 4-3 at the Emirates in the opening game of the Premier League season.
Mesut Ozil started for the North London outfit but was unable to get his name on the scoresheet or provide an assist.
The playmaker of Turkish origin was involved in a few highly talked about – and pretty controversial – incidents including a handball call which resulted in a goal and giving his shirt to a delighted young fan.
We took a look at how Arsenal fans reacted on social media to Ozil’s display.

Ok now for handball incident. Was it deliberate? well Mike Dean owed Arsenal after all those years.
Mike Dean…..you owed us more than one with the Ozil handball.
Sky focussing on that moment – I don’t care

Their whinging on the Ozil handball was nauseating..ball came from behind him and bounced on his arm ..how can that be deliberate?

How is that a handball against Ozil he had his arm by his side, nothing he could have done, stfu Carragher

This ozil “handball” is winding me up. So ndidi’s arm in the air is deemed as a proper arm position but running arms by the side are not?

Hahahahahahaha! Love that Ozil handball. Unreal shithousing.

How tf everyone focusing on that pointless Ozil handball when Leicester players had 3 handballs in their box?

Revenge is sweet?
For those talking about Ozil’s potential handball – something far more pivotal earlier in the game. This is a penalty every day of the week. pic.twitter.com/uPVKp7pycr

Ozil did not have the best of games but he tried.
Ozil may not have had his best game, but he kept running, looking for the ball and trying to make things happen.

Well that is going to open up a can of worms!
Am I the only gooner wondering how Barca is offering €100 for Coutinho but not a single club is trying to buy or even bid for Ozil?

No one wants him. He’s lazy and is as unambitious as they come.
