"We should not expect too much from Rusin already now. This is a footballer who has found himself away from his home and who doesn't know the language yet. So let's be patient with him and give him at least some time to adapt.

But already now I can say that Rusin looks like a good footballer, quick and focused on the result. I hope that within the next couple of weeks he will be able to influence the game of our team. In the meantime, we need to help Rusin to overcome the difficulties of his first period here, which I mentioned above," - Sunderland Echo quotes Mowbray as saying.
