Cam the Ram Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Goalkeeper Kelle Roos has been offered a new long-term contract by Derby, Press Association Sport understands.Roos is into the final 12 months of the deal he signed when joining the Sky Bet Championship club from non-league Nuneaton in January 2014.The Dutchman, who came through the ranks at PSV Eindhoven, impressed for the Under-21 side in his first few months with the Rams and made the breakthrough into the first-team frame during the last campaign.He made five appearances last season, all of them coming in the cup competitions, keeping three clean sheets.Roos was set to provide stiff competition to Lee Grant for the number one jersey next season but the departure of Steve McClaren, and goalkeeping coach Eric Steele, has seen the 23-year-old slip down the pecking order at the iPro Stadium with n ew head coach Paul Clement, appointed last month, signing former England international Scott Carson.If Roos signs the new deal an option available to Derby could be to send him out on loan to gain more first-team experience.The Rams will be hoping the promising keeper does put pen to paper as he turns 24 at the end of May, meaning the club would not be entitled to any compensation for the player when he becomes out of contract next summer.https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/football-rams-want-roos-stay-173619971--sow.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I think he has the potential to be better than Grant. I hope he goes out and get first team experience in a lower Championship side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shang Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I hope he signs, always seems commanding in the box and super confident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uptherams Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Should go out on loan to somewhere in which he will be the number 1. It's about time he started getting some experience outside of U21 matches. Only just turned 23 so 2 or so seasons out on loan now will do him a world of good. Plenty of time to make himself our number 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgford Ram Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Agreed, league football on loan (I don't think it makes much difference which division for a keeper) is needed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Forest need a keeper, we can loan him to them for a season. I'm all for helping the needy. Be good experience for him at the bottom of the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam the Ram Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 I should have titled the thread 'Offered New Contract,' because there's no guarantee he's going to sign it, but hopefully he does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottrillRAM Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I would like to see him play in the championship next season, He's definately ready but is currently behind Grant/Carson for some reason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-JW- Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I would like to see him play in the championship next season, He's definately ready but is currently behind Grant/Carson for some reason! Explain to me why he is ready??I went to all but 1 of the games he played last season, he was hardly tested, but when he was tested he looked shakey to say the least. Kicking is poor.

Not sure if he's ready though. Full season will do him good somewhere like Blackburn or League One imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 He had a few good performances last season in fairness, I liked the look of him. I know he had one bad game, can't remember when, but the rest were typically pretty good. At 23, we should be expecting him to play in the Championship now. I think the fact we've offered him a contract looks to be a good sign, but the Carson signing must have been a blow for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 He's more likely to leave. Rotting away in the reserves is doing him no good. 24 isn't young for a keeper. He needs to be getting first team football somewhere or he'll become a Dutch Lewis Price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kicking is poor. He's played a couple of games and looked solid, made a few decent saves. So really he can only get better with first team experience and I think he's good enough for the championship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
