The Gunners were swept aside by Manchester City at Wembley as Pep Guardiola's side ran out 3-0 winners.

Goals from Sergio Aguero, Vincent Kompany and David Silva saw off the north London side and left Wenger still in search of his first League Cup.

Arsenal were toothless throughout and were slammed by Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville, who labelled their players 'disgraceful'.

And Wenger admits insult was added to injury during a conversation with fourth official Graham Scott in the dying embers of the game.

Referee Craig Pawson awarded three minutes of injury, which Wenger felt was not an accurate representation.

But upon questioning the decision, he was met with mockery and was left humiliated.

In response to Wenger's outcry, Scott joked: "Why would you want anymore time added on?", suggesting the Frenchman would prefer his side to be put out of their misery.

The defeat was Wenger's third in the final of the competition and heaps more misery on a woeful season for Arsenal.

They're in danger of missing out on Champions League football for the second season running, with the Europa League their only hope of resurrecting their campaign.

But they face a tricky last 16 tie against Serie A giants AC Milan.

Arsenal are currently sixth in the Premier League, eight points behind fifth-placed Chelsea.

They'll be hoping to get their revenge on City this Thursday as they welcome them to the Emirates.
