Lehman starts for Gunners against Rovers

Manuel Almunia’s absence for Arsenal meant Jens Lehmann was in goal against Blackburn – the side he made a huge blunder against earlier in the season to lose his place in the side.

It was only Lehmann’s second Barclays Premier League appearance since his error at Ewood Park, and that was last time out against Manchester City as Almunia had a thumb problem.
