Almunia , who has a long running feud with Lehmann has been giving the starting place, but the German keeper is not happy at all.</p> <p>When speaking to German broadcaster, Premiere, Lehmann said, "it's possible that some day I'll feel like talking about the whole issue. </p> <p>"But at the moment I'm just swallowing it all as part of the humiliation. That's something one has to take in. But I think and this is aimed at my dear manager - one shouldn't humiliate players for too long.</p> <p>"I'm an Arsenal player and I won't just fade away quietly."</p> <p>As heated words have gone back and forth between the two Arsenal goalkeepers, Wenger tried to calm the situation by claiming all his goalkeepers were World class. Lehmann does not agree with this statement.</p> <p>"Wenger spoke of three world class goalkeepers. One of them must be me. The other two have proved their class by winning titles? If I think about that, I can't recall any. I guess today you're nevertheless world class."</p> <p>"I'm convinced that I'll be playing again. Almunia has not yet showed that he can win matches for us.</p> <p>"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."</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.footballexpo.com/i-am-the-only-world-class-keeper-at-arsenal#comment Commentary almunia argument arsenal arsene wenger feud goalkeeper jens lehmann world class Tue, 23 Oct 2007 10:54:27 -0500 Scott the Red 677 at http://www.footballexpo.com
