Lehmann slams Arsenal after club release him

The decision to part ways with Lehmann was revealed on Tuesday as Arsenal announced a number of changes to their coaching staff, though long-serving coach Steve Bould was kept on.

Upon hearing the news, Lehmann took to Twitter, sarcastically suggesting that a coach from the club's 'invincible' title-winning season was now surplus to requirements.

"Dear Arsenal fans, I am sorry to leave the club after only one year again. It was a good experience working with the players as one of the assistant-coaches. But the attitude from our 2004-group is not needed there anymore," Lehmann wrote.

Meanwhile, Bould will be joined as assistant first-team coach by Juan Carlos Carcedo, who has followed Unai Emery everywhere since they first teamed up at Almeria.
