Carl Rushworth loving life on loan at Walsall
On-loan keeper Carl Rushworth is ‘enjoying every minute’ at Walsall – and is keen to keep impressing in League Two.
The 20-year-old, having come in from Brighton, has caught the eye between the sticks so far.
And ahead of the Saddlers’ game at Hartlepool today, he said: “I’m enjoying every minute of it.
“Anything that’s going to be thrown at me, it’s just going to help me adapt to different styles of play.
“It’s been a really good test so far and I guess it’s just going to keep getting harder and harder.
“I think the lads have helped me out massively, with there being so many new lads coming in as well. I feel as though I fit in really well.”
Rushworth has kept Jack Rose out of the side over the first few weeks of the campaign.
He is also loving playing in front of crowds – even away fans giving him stick – as he added: “I like to give the banter out and suck in all the atmosphere. I feed off it.
“I don’t want to just get given loads and shy away from it.
“I really enjoy it, to be fair. It’s better than it being silent.”
