Arsene Wenger is still searching for his first League Cup triumph after Arsenal’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester City at Wembley.

Sergio Aguero gave City an 18th-minute lead when he took full advantage of Arsenal defender Shkodran Mustafi’s feeble challenge to latch on to keeper Claudio Bravo’s goal-kick and loft a cool finish over David Ospina.

The second half saw no resurgence from Arsene Wenger’s side. Instead, some dreadful defending allowed man-of-the-match Vincent Kompany to sweep in Ilkay Gundogan’s cross-shot just before the hour.

David Silva put the final flourish on City and City boss Pep Guardiola’s day with a powerful shot past Ospina.

During the match commentator Gary Neville launched a scathing attack on Arsenal’s players, including Aaron Ramsey and Granit Xhaka, to which he branded a “disgrace”.

Arsenal’s hopes of silverware now rest on the Europa League this season.

Gooners, where do we go from here? Let us know in the comments…
