Arsenal boss Unai Emery insists captain Granit Xhaka has his and the rest of the squad's full support.

Xhaka is set to skipper the side against Bournemouth in his second match since he was announced as Arsenal's permanent captain last week.

"They (the players), with the vote, it gave him confidence and I also gave him that confidence after that," Emery told Sky Sports.

"And now - small things or big things - we are going to work individually and collectively to be strong. And also to show our supporters, and to show in our way, how we can be strong with all the players and that captain.

"I also have big confidence and trust in every player, the captain [and the others] because I think now in the dressing room we have a very good spirit."
