Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Dean Saunders has urged goalkeeper Dorus de Vries to make the most of his stint in the starting lineup.
The 32-year-old has started just one match this season, but he will keep goal for Wolves for the remainder of the Championship campaign because Carl Ikeme has broken his hand.
Discussing the Dutchman's ability, Saunders has encouraged the keeper to replicate his performances in training on the pitch.
"It's a chance for Dorus to put his marker down," the Express & Star quotes Saunders as saying.
"He's waited a long time but he's been good in training and there's a very good chance for him. He's different in stature to Carl but he's very good with his feet, so good he could play outfield, near enough.
"His reflexes are good and he's sharp around his goal. His attitude has been good while he's been waiting for his chance and hopefully he takes it."
De Vries joined Wolves from Swansea City in the summer of 2011.
