Don't think we have any captain in terms of that big leader in the side. The closest is probably Ramsdale but it's very early days for him and being a goalkeeper it'll always be limited in its influence.
It's probably a bit of a general issue for us although not the main reason the side is failing
Xhaka is the real captain. The sooner he is back the better.

I feel since Ramsdale came in the whole team got in a different mood. He and KT should do it.
Xhaka can't be the captain because he has enough to worry about just staying on the pitch. He is also like Auba in terms of only being able to lead constructively whilst having a good game himself. I think the only reason that Lacazette isn't the "big leader" as you're defining it is because he isn't the teams named captain. His leadership of this team has been discreet to the point of people having to pay attention to notice and see it. Rightly so when you are not the official captain. Stick the armband on him and he'll immediately look a better captain than Auba ever has.
Assuming he stays healthy, in decent to top form and at AFC, then Ramsdale is both the England No.1 spot and Arsenal captaincy future, in that order. The England No.1 is a lock if he continues to perform for us as he has so far. And after 2 or 3 seasons max of him being here, I've no doubt the fans will be calling for him to get the armband and the players will happily see him get it.
For now it needs to be Lacazette.
Laca who seldom starts. Make sense
Id say it should be Gabriel or Rammers
