After Fulham and Blackburn should Jens Lehmann be dropped?
If not why not?
If so, why?

i hate slagging any arsenal player and 2 giv lens his due . he has been a great keeper for us,, but past is past and i do feel its time for him 2 be replaced ,, every winning team has one thing in common and thats a solid keeper,, we will drop points, points we cant afford 2 drop this year becos of our keeper,, we had a great chance 2day 2 keep our winningstreak going and 2 keep pressure on the other teams at the top,, esp wit man u havin droped points again,,
Lehmann needs some time to get his head together, I don't think he has the same commitment quite frankly.
I keep saying it but I think Almunia has been fantastic when he was called upon last season and all of preseason. He hasn't moaned and he has earnt his chance. If having the first choice makes two very very very basic errors and costing us two points and nearly a further 3 and the reserve keeper still doesn't get his chance then what's the point of him trying hard week in week out!
He deserves a chance, I personally would give it to him so drop Lehmann

Actually it would be a wise idea to not look at what he had done in the past. I mean if we could drop David Seaman when he started making howlers then why not Lehmann. It probably is a bit harsh, but Almunia should play the next match. Irrespective of how good he has been, 2 howlers in 2 matches would harm any keeper's confidence.

So he makes one error against Fulham but made a few saves after that, played brilliantly against Sparta and made one error against Blackburn. Mixed bag so far but he is the only top class keeper we have, if Arsene can get into his head to get him to concentrate then great. Almunia is on form yes but tell me against a top class keeper or important game where he has played fantastic?
