Francesc Fabregas has claimed that the players have complete confidence in goalkeeper Manuel Almunia.

Fabregas said: "We feel very secure when Manuel is between the posts!

"The only thing I can say is that, right now, Almunia is doing very well.

"I've known him for three years and I know what he is capable of.

"But we'll see what happens and if the coach will decide to bring back Jens.

"It's not a decision I can take as it is a matter for the coach."
