Mikel Arteta has a big call to make as he looks to lift the curse of the captain's armband at Arsenal.
Since Thierry Henry left the club as captain in 2007, it has been a catalogue of captaincy calamity that has left Arsenal fans crying out for the club to find someone to take them back to the glory days of Tony Adams and Patrick Vieira.
Last season, there were a number of players to wear the armband after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang followed the likes of William Gallas and Granit Xhaka to have the captaincy taken away from them.
