‘We don’t have big egos': Mikel Arteta’s call to strip Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of the Arsenal captaincy and ostracise him scared other players into line, says Mohamed Elneny with the Spaniard’s ruthless overhaul paying off

Daily Mail | November 4, 2022

Mohamed Elneny claims Arsenal’s players were scared into line by Mikel Arteta’s decision to strip Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of the captaincy.

But the midfielder believes a refusal to allow ‘big egos’ is now the secret of Arteta’s table-topping squad.

Aubameyang joined Barcelona for free in January after being exiled by Arteta, but the striker will come face to face with Arsenal on Sunday following his summer move to Chelsea.
