  Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann risks losing his place in the Germany side by not playing regular first-team football, according to former international rival Oliver Kahn.
  
  Despite playing second fiddle to Manuel Almunia with the Gunners, Lehmann spurned the chance to move back to Borussia Dortmund last week, citing 'personal reasons'.
  
  move to Westphalia would have guaranteed him the regular playing time Germany coach Joachim Low is demanding from all his charges in the build-up to Euro 2008 in Austria and Switzerland.
  
  Kahn, who lost his place in the Germany team to Lehmann for the 2006 World Cup, said: 'In the past it would have been unimaginable that a national-team goalkeeper would be on the bench for his club.
  
  'That is a problem, and Jens knows it as well. It is a dangerous situation.
  
  'I am surprised that he (is not looking at every possibility to find first-team football.'

  I feel it's kinda stupid for Lehmann to stay at Arsenal. He thought he's the only good keeper in Germany? There is Rensing, Weidenfellar and Wiese
