Head coach Robin Dutt and manager Thomas Eichin demonstratively backed Werder's Sebastian Mielitz as they used the Thursday press conference to express their full faith in the 24-year-old goalkeeper.

"Miele is our number one and he has our full backing. That is a clear message and nothing else plays a role for us," Dutt told the journalists. Eichin reiterated the message, ending all rumours that had arisen after Tim Wiese's performance in the farewell match for Torsten Frings. "If we had wanted a goalkeeper during the transfer period we would have gotten one. We are counting on Sebastian Mielitz. We never said anything to the contrary. Tim Wiese will not come here, so I would like to end that topic end now," said Eichin.

Dutt is certain that the fans will honour this clear message from the sports leadership and fully support their "number one" in the important match against Eintracht Frankfurt. "In my time thus far at Werder, I got to see that the supporters have a very good feeling for certain situations. Whether it's the transition from Thomas Schaaf to me or the match against Augsburg when we could fully count on their support when we played poorly. The fans have a great sense and I hope and I am certain that they will display this sense to Miele on Saturday," said Dutt.
