Former defender Matin Keown has insisted Mesut Ozil not fit to wear the Arsenal shirt. Mezut Ozil failed to find his game at the Wanda Metropolitano, as Arsenal lost the chance to reach final.
"It's almost like his hands are in the air: 'Look, this group aren't as good as me”. Somebody needed to grab him a long time ago, to give him a shake and say: 'We're trying to get you the ball to you. We are working for you, but you're not working for us,” Keown told BT Sport.
"I bet he doesn't play again this season. He'll have some emotional breakdown and he won't be able to play at the weekend. I don't know how many illnesses he's had this season - but the fella is not kidding me! That is not a proper performance. He is not giving everything and there's much more under the bonnet.
"Somebody else will find it. Whether the new manager coming will find it, I don't know. It's a big problem for the new manager because [Arsene] Wenger's invested an awful lot of money in this player — and I'm not seeing a performance to go with it.
"He wasn't fit to wear the shirt for me tonight and I've seen this a lot this season, and he needs to be dug out because we expect better from him. He's a World Cup winner. These are crocodile tears that I'm seeing from the player. He's not conning me!"
