The Gunners boss has said he will pass the armband around this season, but a former star in north London wants to see a Brazilian defender take it
David Luiz is a “serial winner” and “has got to be captain” at Arsenal, says Paul Merson, with Unai Emery’s plan to pass the armband around causing concern.
The Gunners boss has stated in the past that he wants to work with a leadership group at Emirates Stadium, rather than one set skipper.
A number of those considered to be worthy of taking on captaincy duties have since left north London, with the likes of Petr Cech, Laurent Koscielny, Nacho Monreal and Aaron Ramsey all moved on.
