The Scunthorpe Problem

Russell could be a very handy DM/CM in a 'ball winning mid' role, as (imo) he's just too short to be a CB He has good jumping reach though, so he could do it, it's just a personal preference of mine to have CB's that are over 6'0.

I'm really liking the look of your rebuild so far, and I've no doubt that Miller will get you plenty of goals/assists over the course of the season. He seems to be very solid in all the required areas.
It's a risk to place a lot of faith in Foster in goal, but you never know... if he's as good as what Keith Hill predicted... you'll be laughing all the way to the bank!

Keep going

Saw Miller briefly at Harrogate Town back when he played there. Didn't set the world alight but you could see that he was capable in the Football League. It's a shrewd piece of business to get him in at this level as he looked promising back in his Celtic days, being touted for UCL apps.
