Our next captain is Arteta

[Kuffir]

that is most likely 

 

 

FUCK EM

[Captain Planet]

Glad we can finally put more than one name down as someone who can lead the team, even after losing two leaders in the summer.

 

Ramsey

Mertersacker

Koscielny

Flamini

Arteta

[Guest Gooner_Man]

Besiktas is a tough tie, we will go through.

15m for Vermaelen is robbery - for Barca their pants are down.

Mertesacker is the only choice for new captain. Koscielny as back up.

[Taurus]

Merts for me

[Kuffir]

neggers gon neg in silence

 

idc flamini got crazy heart

[Captain Planet]

Whenever I think of Flamini I imagine some dirty french plumber.

His game, his quotes about liking the 'dirty work' and even the fact that he likes to play with his sleeves rolled up just embodies some Groundskeeper Willy-esque guy who's not afraid to shove his hand down the pan and pull out a turd to unblock it.

Team player right there.

[Drift]

mertesacker is the only thing even close to resembling a leader at this club.

[Da Luv Doc]

Merts (Cap)

Arteta (Vice Cap)

[gattsu]

Arteta vice?

God no please, don't want him starting unless it can't be helped

[Seth Rollins]

No one else in that squad even deserves captaincy. Wilshere has been nothing short of trash.

 

It's going to be Arteta (Vice) for his last season. Please give it to the big f**king German. PLEASE.

[Badman]

agreed

Arteta is a great leader.

[Michel Kane]

Merts (Cap)

Arteta (Vice Cap)

[Seth Rollins]

Arteta isn't trash I just want to be clear. He can't be playing 30+ games.

 

My only gripe with the coming season. I don't think defensively we've learnt from last season. This squad will struggle without the ball and struggle in the middle of the pitch.

 

Jack WIlshere has a LOT of work to do...

Arteta is a great leader.

 

no hes a great professional. good guy to have in the squad but hes not a leader.

[Medic]

Another season of the 'captain' sitting on the bench would be silly. Give it to Mertesacker, he is our leader on the pitch.

[Da Luv Doc]

I'm just being realistic, not saying that's what I want.

He actually leads quite a lot, just maybe not in the sense you desire.

[8BALL]

The words 'great leader' shouldn't be thrown around that easily.

[time_bomb]

arteta is the captain today

[ApolloStark85]

...And has been given the armband permanently. Hmmmmm, reckon that means the mythical DM we've needed for the past 5yrs isn't coming....

[Drift]

ffs wenger

 

fuck arteta 

[Seydou]

Arteta out.

[Fighting Weight]

Not Arteta's fault he's less than mobile now and slow.....what are the other options in terms of ball retention, metronomic passing and positional sense? Wilshere...? No. Ramsey? No. Flamini? No...

 

Wenger needs to do something, as currently a sure fire way to score is nip at Artetas heels all match and soon enough you'll be through on defence, goalside of 6 Arsenal players

 

He's still currently the best man for the job at the club..
