Antonio Conte admits he hasn't yet decided whether he will start Thibaut Courtois in goal for Chelsea's FA Cup clash against Leicester following the Belgian's performance at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night.
Courtois was heavily criticised in the aftermath of Chelsea's 3-0 Champions League defeat to Barcelona in midweek after he was nutmegged twice by Lionel Messi for the Argentine's goals as the Blues were knocked out of the competition 4-1 on aggregate.
Courtois told Standard Sport afterwards that he was "hurt" by his showing in Barcelona, but vowed to not let critics affect his mindset ahead of Chelsea's FA Cup quarter-final match away to Leicester on Sunday afternoon.
Willy Caballero has started all of Chelsea's games in the FA Cup this season but, when asked who he could play at the King Power Stadium, Conte admitted he hasn't decided on his goalkeeper for the match.
"I think that we are talking about two good goalkeepers. Thibaut and Willy," Conte told reporters at Cobham.
"We don't have rules for the competition. On Sunday, I'll try to make the best decision, because we want to try to go to the next round."
Conte also suggested that, unlike in previous rounds of the FA Cup, he could start his strongest XI against Leicester following Chelsea's elimination from the Champions League.
"Now we are not playing every three days. We played Barcelona, but we've had a whole week to recover and rest," he said.

"For this reason I'll pick the best solution for tomorrow's game.
"I think every trophy is important for us. We started the season to try to fight until the end for every competition.
"In the Carabao Cup we reached the semi-final, in Champions League the last-16. This is the FA Cup quarter-final. If we win we can play another semi-final at Wembley. We try to do our best in every competition. This must be our target."
