Is our secret hero...
The thing with Lehmann is that, he's a twat. Everyone knows he is. He's German, he's uppity, he has delusions of grandeur, and he managed to annoy pretty much everyone during his five years at Arsenal. Even his mother thinks he's a bit of a cock.
But there's no doubting that the guy is also piss funny, and ruddy entertaining. And since he's now no longer playing for the Arse, we can begrudgingly admit he was a pretty good keeper too. How Wenger could do with him over the collection of clowns he's assembled.
But a return to the motherland hasn't calmed Lehmann's undoubted eccentricities. You'd think after his Laurel and Hardy skit with Didier Drogba he might have reached his comedic pinnacle. Oh no. This weekend he pipped that, or rather 14-year-old Aron Schulz did, the Hannover ball boy who made the Stuttgart goalie look a bit of a tit. We just love the way that, rather than confront the boy himself, Jens turns to an official to have a moan. The big German pube-headed fanny. Oh how we miss him...
