Arsenal’s captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been left out of the

starting XI to face Tottenham in the north London derby after a disciplinary breach.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta confirmed the news ahead of the game at the Emirates.

Arteta refused to reveal the reasons behind his captain’s omission but did confirm he was originally scheduled to lead the attack, with Alexandre Lacazette getting the nod instead.

“We have drawn the line, we move on, and he is on the bench,” the Spaniard said.

“We have a process for every game that we have to respect. It was a decision made after evaluating everything and who Auba is and what he’s done.

“We have other players who can play. Recently we have changed the team quite a lot and there are players who are willing to play and deserve a chance, so I’m comfortable with that.”
