After playing only two games for Arsenal this season, Jens Lehmann will be ready to play for the German National Team when they take on Ireland and the Czech Republic for their European Championship qualifying campaign. His elbow has been bothering him for quite a while but he claims to be totally fit right now.

“Jens has been going throught his regular practice routine for days now. He can play.” According to Andreas Köpke, Germany’s goalkeeper coach. If for some reason Lehmann is not playing, then Valencia’s Timo Hildebrand is expected to play.
