VETERAN Arsenal keeper Jens Lehmann has once again aired his frustration at the lack of first team football at the Emirates Stadium this season.
The 39-year-old gloveman, wasn't even in the squad for Monday night's game at Derby as young Pole Lukasz Fabianski was given a run-out and main rival Manuel Almunia returned to make the bench.
And former Borussia Dortmund stopper Lehmann, who has already bad-mouthed replacement Almunia several times this season, claims it is only his advancing years that is keeping him sane.
He said: "It sucks being a reserve, but with growing age it is bearable."
