Think Arsenal team all wear the same sleeves and it is captains choice.
Definitely used to be the case but not sure if it still applies. Even if they wear short sleeves, some players these days wear those long sleeve under layer tops so at a distance it looks like they're wearing long sleeved shirts anyway.
always enjoyed playing in a long sleeved shirt alot more for some reason
I was the opposite - short sleeved even in freezing weather - just found long sleeved annoying
Me too. When you were running around the cold wasn't a factor at all. In fact, it was better playing in the cold than the heat. A bigger issue for the keeper.

Sadly not the case. Flamini broke it originally (drove the kit man mad). They ended up talking him over.
Presently: "Well, unfortunately, I think that went a wee bit over the last two years,” Vic Akers (former kit man to Arsene Wenger) told Sky Sports. “Certain individuals wanted to wear the opposite and they got their way. Sadly, that tradition has almost gone now. Very sad.”
It is just a quote on the walls of the Emirates Stadium.
