Keepers (other than Scott Carson) don't get injured too often, and if we needed to, we could get one in January. Mitchell would be fine for a little bit. Wholeheartedly disagree.

MuespachRam Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Carson is better than Roos. That’s the end of it. Probably on a lot more money and obviously a lot older so doesn’t fit in to the new Derby way model. (Forgetting Wazza of course!) The decision to let him go and keep Roos instead will probably cost us 10 points this season and that could be the difference between breaking the points total record and just winning the league by 20 points.

Crack on disagreeing then, but Carson has barely been fit for a year, and can't save anything at his feet because his back has gone. Might as well go with a kid.

That is not the end of it. Carson was significantly worse than Roos last season, in my opinion. 10 points a season? Did you watch Scott last season? Am I missing something? What did Roos do wrong other than Wembley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want promotion we cannot rely on him to back up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that means we have Roos and Mitchell. Crazy call to loan Scott out. Memo to Mel Morris: Really not sure why you are paying Shay Given. Suggest you get rid, and get more off the wage bill.

What is this 'Carson is an injury nightmare' nonsense 4 seasons at the club - He's had one proper injury (last season) - First season he came in as backup to Granty and then took his place for the rest of the season, then 2 seasons as an almost ever present then last season he got an injury Roos took his place That's only one real injury right? 8 minutes ago, IslandExile said: Roos made a costly mistake in a play off final and, like Keogh, no matter what else he does will never be allowed to move on without many judging him by it. Made a great stop to keep the 3 points on Monday so as far as I'm concerned he's already won us 2 points this season - Tell that to the boo boys ?

Utter tosh, has already earned us 2 more points monday night with that point blank save or are you only interested in the negatives? Find us a goalie that won't make mistakes and play in this league and i'll give you the £50 mill that it would take to get him!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamLad1884 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 From what I've seen on the u23s Ravas could probably step up to the back up role pretty well. Agree Mitchell doesn't look up to the championship standard but Roos should be able to do a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be costly to us, when he wouldn't have started anyway? We need a new first choice goalkeeper. Letting Carson go won’t be costly, not filling his space in the squad with a new first choice goalkeeper would be. Roos is better than Carson, but he’s still not good enough. Carson was woeful last season (statistically the worst goalkeeper in the division) so Roos didn’t exactly have a tough battle to win his place. I don’t think he’s good enough, and that’s nothing to do with Wembley. There’s a reason why he’s always been out on loan to the lower leagues. He lacks the command of the box and has too dodgy distribution and decision making skills to be our first choice goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
