Arsenal defender Ben White has been criticised by a club legend for his poor reaction to a 1-1 draw against Southampton.
The Gunners' excellent winning run in the Premier League came to an end against the Saints.
Despite taking the lead in the game, the London outfit were pulled back to a 1-1 draw through a Stuart Armstrong equaliser in the second half.
Post-game, White told ViaPlay: "I think the first half was really good. We created loads of chances and we should have scored more. We should have probably put the game to bed in the first half and we didn't."
When asked why they did not win, he added: "[We were] Sloppy in possession, didn't win duels, the opposite to the first half and that's why the game went the way it did. We're only human… it's tricky."
Dixon remarked shortly afterwards and stated: "Wow, did they get beat 8-0? Yeah, that was a little bit over the top.
"He's feeling what he's feeling but I still think that this season, when you play like that in the second half, you've got to take it on the chin and go, 'yeah, we didn't play great, move on to the next one'. But he was very down there wasn't he?"
He added: "I think it [Arsenal's poor finishing] would've been Mikel's concern at half time because you always remember the game that's just gone, they had a midweek game but the last Premier League game he'll remember how in control they were against Leeds and then how it went away from them in the second half.
"It was very similar, this time Southampton got the goal. But tomorrow when he's softened his view on it he'll say it's a decent point, because they could've lost that game in the end."
