Arsenal veteran goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has yet again produced furious comments, this time towards manager Arsene Wenger after the latter dropped him from the Gunners' 7-0 Champions League win over Slavia Prague. The German's shaky start to the season, marred by injuries and blatant errors, forced Wenger to give Spaniard Manuel Almunia the nod ahead of Lehmann. However, the former Borussia Dortmund goalie believes that sitting on the Arsenal bench is a 'humiliation' as he threatened to censure his boss in public. "I think - and this is aimed at my dear manager - one shouldn't humiliate players for too long," Lehmann told German TV Channel Premiere after the Slavia game. "It's possible that some day I'll feel like talking about the whole issue. "At the moment I'm just swallowing it all as part of the humiliation. That's something one has to take in." Public criticism has been a habit for Lehmann, who recently blasted his former Germany teammate Oliver Kahn, in addition to Almunia, who received another swipe from the temperamental keeper. "I'm convinced that I'll be playing again. Almunia has not yet showed that he can win matches for us," Lehmann added. "I've experienced this situation before and know what the others are expecting from the goalkeeper. I can't imagine he'll be able to handle that." The 37-year-old is seemingly unaware that the Gunners maintained a 100% winning record since his goalkeeping rival overtaken his place between the sticks.
