Jens Lehmann sues fellow goalkeeper
Jens Lehmann has filed a lawsuit demanding compensation from fellow goalkeeper Tim Wiese of Werder Bremen for telling a television audience Lehmann belonged in the ''Muppet Show.''
Lehmann recently came out of retirement to return to Arsenal. While working as a television commentator in September, Lehmann criticized Wiese's performance in a Champions League match against Tottenham.
Wiese responded a day later in a newspaper by saying Lehmann should ''go to the Muppet Show'' and be treated ''on a couch.''
Lehmann is demanding ?20,000 ($28,480) for having his ''personal rights violated.''
A Munich court will hear the case this week.
