Wenger: Cesc not ready for Arsenal captaincy

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says it's too early for Cesc Fabregas club captain - despite his heroics yesterday at Sunderland. He said: "It shows he is just not a great footballer but a great winner. He is one of the smaller players in our team and he goes for the header in the last seconds of the match, it tells you a lot about him."

Asked why Cesc isn't yet captain, Wenger added: "Because he is a bit young and because we have a captain."
