NEW Borussia Monchengladbach coach Holger Fach has backed number one keeper Jorg Stiel to retake his place between the posts when his side welcomes Bochum at the weekend.

Stiel had been out of the side in recent games through injury forcing former coach Ewald Lienen to use Michael Melka and Claus Reitmaier, but with little success.

"If his knee won't trouble him he'll start on Saturday," declared Fach.

Swiss international Stiel was out for four weeks, but is now determined to return to help his struggling team.

"I don't have any knee problems any more and can't wait to return," said Stiel.
