Arsenal’s re-hiring of coach Jens Lehmann is intriguing & surprising

I didn’t see this one coming.

But it’s a great idea.

The German quickly made a difference when he arrived in the summer of 2003 and immediately looked the part in two friendlies against Celtic and Rangers in Scotland.

Lehmann, now 47, is a very strong character and a winner and an Invincible.

He knows what it takes to win a league title.

Jens has been hired as first team coach, not as a goalkeeping coach.

Compared to the Bundesliga, the Premier League is the Wild West in terms of behaviour, consistency and tactics.

So maybe Mad Jens fits in better over here, finds a more suitable arena in which to express himself. But how much will control-freak Wenger allow Lehmann to do or say?

PS. When Lacazette puts pen to paper, so will I.
