Arsene Wenger reached his "lowest point ever" as Arsenal manager in his side’s 5-1 Champions League hammering by Bayern Munich, according to former Gunner Martin Keown.
After an impressive first-half after which they were drawing 1-1 thanks to the inspirational leadership of goalscorer Alexis Sanchez, Arsenal fell apart after captain Laurent Koscielny went off injured.
Robert Lewandowski, a Thiago brace and Thomas Muller’s late strike effectively ended Arsenal’s Champions League at the last-16 stage for a seventh consecutive year, with the Gunners already all but out of the title race.
A dire run of form has led to mounting pressure on Wenger, and Keown - while reluctant to call for his former manager to resign - was clear that things had never been worse in the Frenchman’s 20 year reign.
"I feel for Arsene Wenger," Keown told BT Sport. "It's almost embarrassing. Outclassed, outplayed. They did it at a canter.
“Wenger has to be seriously considering his future now because it's embarrassing.
"I can't ever say I'd like to see him go - this is his lowest point ever as Arsenal manager."
Wenger’s current contract expires at the end of the season and he is yet to offer a clear indication as to whether he plans to extend his deal.
