And captain Coleman inspired Everton to a 1-0 win over Leeds at Goodison with a bizarre goal.

The Irishman charged down the right and fired in at a ridiculous angle, catching Leeds shot-stopper Illan Meslier flat-footed.

But fans have been left wondering whether Coleman meant his goal.

One said in Twitter: "Seamus Coleman channeling his inner Roberto Carlos."

Another tweeted: "On the slow motion he puts his laces through it, doesn’t try to curl it away from goal.

"100 per cent meant to do it."

A third weighed in, saying: "Doubt it's a cross there's no-one there."

Interestingly, Coleman has scored two goals across his last 97 appearances in the Prem; both of them were scored against Leeds.
