Well if you haven't watched a match in a while, Herbie, you are clearly not an Arsenal supporter and you should f*ck off to a Spurs board.



I'm guessing it was along the lines of 'he's one of our best players but prone to sulking so let's make him captain so that he feels wanted and loved and obligated to run hard'.

Seems to have worked to be fair.
