Arsenal legend Lee Dixon has heaped praise on Mikel Arteta for how he handled the situation with former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gabon international was stripped of the club's captaincy back in December after a discipline breach. Aubameyang was subsequently left out of every matchday squad before eventually joining La Liga giants Barcelona during the January transfer window.
Since the 32-year-old joined the Catalan club, the Gunners have won six of their seven Premier League fixtures, a run of games that sees them sit fourth in the current league standings, three points clear of Tottenham Hotspur - who have played an extra match. Aubameyang has already netted nine times for Xavi's side but Arsenal hero Dixon still thinks the north Londoners made the right call to let the former Borussia Dortmund star leave.
