Arsenal legend Martin Keown has slammed Mesut Ozil for his performance against Atletico Madrid on Thursday evening.
Ozil played the full 90 minutes during his sides 1-0 loss in the Europa League semi-final which saw the Gunners eliminated from the cup competition.
The Europa League was Arsenal’s last chance of silverware and was their only remaining route to playing UEFA Champions League football next season.
Keown was furious with the Gunners performance on the night and did not hold back when analyzing Mesut Ozil.
The former Arsenal defender stated that Ozil was “not fit to wear the shirt” and did not put in a “proper performance”.

“These are crocodile tears I’m seeing. He’s not conning me,” ex-England international Keown told BT Sport.
“I bet he doesn’t play again this season. He will have some emotional breakdown and won’t be able to play at the weekend.
“He wasn’t fit to wear the shirt for me tonight, and I have seen this a lot this season.”
Atletico Madrid booked their spot in the final against Marseille following their 2-1 aggregate win over Arsenal.
Arsenal are back in action this weekend when they host Burnley FC in Arsene Wenger’s final game at the Emirates.
Ozil has 14 assists and five goals to his name in 35 appearances for Arsenal this season.
