Kasper Schmeichel has signed a new four-year contract with Manchester City.
There was also praise for the rest of City's goalkeepers from Schmeichel, who continued: "Joe, Isak, Filip Mentel and Richard (Martin, reserve keeper) have been brilliant in the way that they've supported me. We all know how difficult the job we do is, there aren't many people that know how goalkeeping can be. We need to support each other, we do that and Joe is probably my best friend here."
City boss Sven Goran Eriksson adds, "Kasper has been very impressive since I came to City, and I'm delighted that he has committed his future to the club."
