Gerhard Tremmel not fearful of Manchester United

Swansea City goalkeeper Gerhard Tremmel has insisted that he is "not scared" of Manchester United ahead of this weekend's Premier League clash at the Liberty Stadium.

The Welsh club, who are currently in 10th place in the table, host the league leaders on Sunday.

"I am not afraid of Manchester United," Tremmel told Swansea's official website. "Of course, it is a big story to play against them but they just have 11 players. They have good players but so have the other teams.

"We played Manchester City, who have magnificent offensive players, but we only conceded one goal. I believe we will do a great job, especially because we are at home. "We also have a good team so why can't we get something out of the game?"

The Swans go into the match against United on the back of a 1-0 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.
