I don't think given the captaincy has actually done anything to his form, merely coincidence infact. Fabregas was always knocking on the door of having a good season. Injuries to Van Persie & Bendtner and the departure of Adebayor has probably forced Wenger to tell him to do what he likes in front of goal.

The captain though is what they lack, the whole team is mentally weak. You look at the other teams in the top four and they all have characters in that team, leaders all over the pitch that can organise & stir up the team. I look at Arsenal & they just look soulless.

Wenger needs a character, like an Adams or a Vieira, to give that team the direction on the field. If Wenger's with holding spending huge amounts on a varying amount of players (for the weaker areas of the team), a player who can fit that role of captain will be an added bonus to the team as currently I can't see one.
