Arsenal legend Lee Dixon answers your questions
Next to Dennis Bergkamp, Lee Dixon is one of my favourite players. To me he was the epitome of an Arsenal player. So you can imagine my surprise when I AM PLAYR asked if I would be interested in submitting my reader’s comments to Lee for him to answer.
It was a quick Hell yeah I think which I replied in an email. So I am very thankful for the folks at IMPLAYR at giving us this access to Lee and I am grateful that he even answered a few of our questions.
