Everton's Ronald Koeman ridicules Arsene Wenger for blaming ref again

Everton manager Ronald Koeman ridiculed counterpart Arsene Wenger for consistently blaming referees after the Toffees beat Arsenal 2-1 on Tuesday night.

Koeman's victory follows home wins of 2-0 and 4-0 over Arsenal in the previous two seasons when the Dutchman was in charge of Southampton.

Wenger said he was "really disappointed in [referee Mark] Clattenburg" for giving the corner that led to Ashley Williams' winner, to which Koeman had a quick rebuttal.

"It is the third time in a row I won at home against Arsenal and three times in a row it was about the referee," Koeman said.
