Arsenal captaincy and the armband is not an issue for Gunners defender Sokratis.

“The captaincy or who has this on the pitch, I don’t think it’s very important,” defender Sokratis said.

“It’s important that all the team is good in the dressing room. We are like a family. In the end who brings the pitch the captaincy is the last thing.”

Asked what Aubameyang was like as a leader, Sokratis added: “I don’t know, I think it’s the first time he is a captain.

“For me it’s more important that Auba first has to score, he has to do his work.

“He’s a very good guy. But I already said something – who has the captaincy is not very important.”

Speaking ahead of the Leicester game, Sokratis sounded wary of the Foxes.

“It’s a very big game, it’s a game we have to win,” Sokratis said. “Of course we have a lot of games in front and if we see last year we were there but in the last seven games, we didn’t win one.

“The other teams were six, seven points behind us but in the end they were in front. We need to be consistent all year, not only one month.

“Leicester is in a very good moment, they’re a very hungry team. You can see this. We have to be ready to beat them.”
