I was using 5 games since Jim went, but it is bending statistics to your point and very tongue in cheek.
As a County fan I want us to succeed but from what I have seen I am not thrilled yet with Rusk. His sub benches make no sense to me and his interviews are meagre fare compared to what we used to get from Jim. I don’t get the feeling of what we are striving to achieve yet from Rusk, but he will ultimately be judged by what happens on the pitch, not what he says in interviews!
Until we can get a number 9 who can be a step up from Bennett, I think our best team would be Scott, Palmer and Hogan as 3 centre backs, Southam-Hales and Kitching as wing backs, Keane and Croasdale in defensive midfield with Rooney and Walker sitting behind Reid. This could give us defensive solidity and attacking fluidity.
Ultimately we need another forward as Reid plays best as a second striker with a target man IMO.
