Former Arsenal defender Lee Dixon has slammed Ben White's reaction to Sunday's draw against Southampton, claiming his comments were "over the top". It came after the versatile centre-back turned right-back was critical of the Gunners' performance as they dropped points for only the second time this season.
It seemed as though that wouldn't be a possibility early on as Granit Xhaka fired an opener into the roof of the net just 11 minutes into the clash. Though Mikel Arteta's side enjoyed creating in the first half, they were unable to extend their lead and that would end up being costly.
The home side came out rejuvenated and caused plenty of problems until they found their breakthrough midway through the second half. Stuart Armstrong's marauding run beyond the backline was picked out, with the midfielder then firing home to draw his side level and leaving Arsenal unable to find a response.
