“Bukayo Saka is a fantastic player and I always say good things about him. Because I like his hunger and his goals, his intelligence as a player and his assists. I just don’t want him to be the captain. Because I think he has to play his game and think about his own game.”

You’ve got Declan Rice in the team, give him the captain’s armband, you’ve got Thomas Partey. I just feel you should give those two a chance play his game. I think some players should given the chance to play their game.”

“He deserves it,” Arteta said after the win. “His journey is extraordinary.

He’s one of our most important players. His role in the team and in the club has grown, his leadership and presence has to grow at the same level, he needs to start to make those steps and I think he’s ready for that.”
