Dixon’s exit for Alexis and Ozil

-

LEE DIXON claims Arsenal teams he played in would have shown the door to Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil over their refusal to commit to the club.

Dixon, 53, was influentia­l in some of Arsenal’s finest teams under Arsene Wenger and George Graham.

He said: “We’d have just shown them the door. ‘If you don’t want to play, then go’. That’s not changed.

“It happened with Michael Thomas 18 months after he scored the titlewinni­ng goal at Liverpool in ‘89. He was in dispute with the club or George about money and went to Anfield.”
