Lennon keen on Kenny Miller

No thanks, Whittaker cost us enough.
It's no a retirement home.

How much did he cost us?

Whittaker cost us very little. As will Miller if he wants to come. Whittaker is doing his coaching while helping out when needed, Miller would be the same. None of our coaches have played centre forward at the level KM has, that experience and knowledge for Oli is second to none and would make Oli twice the player he already is immediately.

agree with your main point...buy Guardiola had had great success with their B team - winning leagues and promotions in their second division, before he was given the first team role ..so not untried .

Can B Teams get promoted?

Until they reach the level below the ‘A’ team. In Scottish terms a B team could reach the championship but not join the A side in the premiership.

I haven't seen or heard anything from the BBC, but there was a story in the Mail about this:

Please make this a "Fake News" story.

Hope it`s just newspaper talk and we`re not at all interested . If we are , can`t see why it would be a priority signing even if other clubs are interested so would suppose we`d be looking for better alternatives all summer before offering him anything definite . If he doesn`t want to wait and gets a better offer fine .
I keep reading here that everything is different from times of CC , Fenlon and Butcher and that we`re a new club etc etc with a great scouting team in place etc but if that`s the case is Miller as good as we can get ? With record season ticket sales many fans will surely be hoping for someone a bit better and club will be looking for someone with some sell on value if a success . 90% of fans are realistic and understand that it`s very difficult time for Scottish clubs to sign top players or even good players by European standards and that all signings are unpredictable and require some luck to become successful but can`t see many fans being happy about signing KM unless it`s a case of signing anyone we`ve heard of before players who`ll really be a success . If as a coach , then club can announce he`s being signed as back up to coaching team .

Ian Black has decorated quite a lot.

That was a cracking 1st post

[Austinho]

I’d be pretty whelmed if Miller joined.

Does anyone take back ex players as much as we do?

[Austinho]

Let’s line up some offers for Sol Bamba, Steven Fletcher, Leigh Griffiths and Mixu Paatelainen too ;)

[Nutmegged]

Not happy about this one at all, I've got no issue with Kenny other than the fact he'll be 39 and has lost that explosive pace and boundless energy that made him what he was, if he was 35/36 I'd not be as against this idea but if we have genuine aspirations to becomes a top 2 team then we need to be a bit more ambitious than this

Sign him for 1 year. Will defo do a job.

He hasn’t done a job this season. Only 4 goals. What makes you think he’s improving at his age?

Craig

Brewster

Think he only got a handful of goals as well. We need strikers who score goals.
How come Celtic don’t feel the need for a mentor for their strikers?

You said he would def do a job? He’s not doing that now so I don’t see him improving next season.

Dembélé was only just turned 20 when he signed for Celtic. Surely he would need mentoring? Or maybe Celtic think that’s what the coaching team are for?

Only down to his injury. Has more than done a job when playing. Would be a decent signing for a year a bit like Whittaker that wise old veteran role who can still do a job.

I don’t think Whittaker has been good value for money either.

Seems a bit old but happy to take Lennons judgement on this one. Pretty sure he has a better knowledge of football than the experts on here.

Not as a goal scorer in the league he hasn’t
one goal every 6.6 games with the chances that Rangers forwards get is poor

Kenny Miller - Zombies - 3 goals average 397 mins per goal

Morelos - Zombies - 14 goals average 165mins per goal
Leigh Griffiths - 9 goals average 119mins per goal
Alex Schalke - Ross County - 11 goals average 128mins per goal
Adam Rooney - Aberdeen - 9 goals average 168mins per goal
Simon Murray - Hibs(dundee) - 8 goals average 273mins per goal
Florian Kamberi - Hibs - 6 goals average 135mins per goal
Oli Shaw - Hibs - 5 goals average 105 mins per goal

That does look low in terms of goals to mins. I was just going on the basis of what I had seen in games or highlights and tv. Think he has been more of a sub this season which probably added to his anger with Murty. Still think he would add to the squad for a season however I am sure there are other strikers who could also do a similar or better job so will leave it to Neil to decide.

Why would we sack anyone? Do we only bring players in when one goes? We don’t have a striker on the coaching staff..

[thegaffer12]

Lennon's Hibs TV interview would suggest it's just a rumour and based on nothing.

"It's all paper talk. He's nearly as old as me!"

Does not sound like a manager ready to make a move on him.
