Lehmann optimistic about Arsenal's chances

Former Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has revealed that he believes his old club have every chance of maintaining their strong start to the season.

The Gunners are unbeaten after four Premier League matches, and Lehmann believes that the experience of his countrymen Lukas Podolski and Per Mertesacker has helped to build a solid foundation at the Emirates.

Lehmann told The Mirror: "I'm quite optimistic about the current season and hope of course that Arsenal will win something.

"Now with Podolski and Mertesacker they have two German players who are very experienced because of their caps in the national team, I think both of them are near 100 caps and still at a young age.

"They are expecting of course to see them performing three times a week on a high level, so far my impression is that everybody's quite happy with them, but everybody knows that they still have to improve, to adapt to the English football and to adapt to the pace of the game there.

"Lukas and Per are both mentally strong and they have definitely got the potential to perform and to improve their game."

Lehmann is currently back in North London in a coaching capacity as he continues to work towards a future in management.
