Arsenal title winner Paul Merson has nominated his choice for captain.

Writing for the Daily Star, Merson declared: "Kieran Tierney should be Arsenal captain - because you can't put your faith in Alexandre Lacazette.

"And my old club should start sorting out better contracts for young players like Bukayo Saka right now instead of wasting their money like they have before.

"They moved one step forward getting rid of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and his massive wages - but giving the captaincy to Lacazette was going two steps back.

"Give it to someone like Tierney and start building now.

"I like Tierney. I think he'll run through a brick wall for you. I think Ben White could be captain as well. One of those two. They are there for the long run. Why not?

"Lacazette is 30 years old now. I think he needs to show some leadership. But I do not agree with him being made captain one iota."
