Agree that he is technically good, but he does not have the time on the ball he seems to think he has, also he hasn't the strnegth to shield the ball properly.
He might be better off moving to the continent where the football is less robust.
Liam Miller was on £800 pw at Celtic. Man Utd offered him £25,000 pw Celtic had stalled on a new contract even when Alex Ferguson was seen at a champions league game at Celtic Park. The eventual offer of £11,000 per week was decent enough but too little too late.
Why should a Cork lad show any more loyalty to one British club over another?
It appears Celtic learned their lesson and tied Aiden McGeady down straight away. Seems like a very smart move.
Now of much more concern is his form this season. He was not picked for a central midfield 3 last night of Fletcher, Djemba Djemba and Fortune. Enough said. I think Liam Miller is a very good player but he must be short of confidence now. Man Utd was a great move financially but a year of first team football would have been much better.

Wheres he at now?
Maybe getting a game when Ferguson plays his 'reserves' and afraid of his own shadow.
Yep great move alright.

What are you talking about? Did I say it had been a fabulous move for him and everything was rosy? No I didn't so I don't see what you're getting at here. I just said that it's easy to understand why he moved.Originally Posted by AmenToThat

I think the gulf between the Premiership and the SPL is huge. Barry Ferguson was Captain of Rangers and Scotland. He was touted as the best midfielder in the SPL. He went to Blackburn and what happened. SFA. Even though he had Souness there to shield him he has been a huge flop and wants to return home. It says it all really.
Always look on the bright side of life
barry ferguson a flop? have you seen him recently for blackburn, he's been outstanding. He has been a practical ever present and is the captain of a premiership club, he's a leader!
n im a celtic fan!!!
In fairness Davros, I doubt very much that Gibbons even seen the Exeter match. People are looking too much into him being subbed off first in that match. He made the bench against Liverpool ahead of the likes of Djemba and Kleberson.
Seconded. It weould be a backward step for him to return to the SPL, and no mistake. He should be looking at bigger Premiership clubs in the future, not a return to the SPL. Unless it's with Celtic, his wife's team.Originally Posted by livehead1

Oh, and FWIW, I'd have him at CP like a shot.

Agreed from the match reports Iv read recently regarding Blackburn hes been pretty much the driving force and the star player of the team!Originally Posted by livehead1
So as a Cetlic fan I hope he stays south of the boarder![]()
Ferguson has handed in a transfer request.
65 mins gone tonight and Miller is taken off for Fletcher. He has really struggled against Exeter, couldnt cope with the physical aspect of the game -worrying given he's a central midfielder.
He was absolutely woeful. Until he shows some form for MU or another club on loan, he does not deserve to be in the squad for internatonals, never mind the team.Originally Posted by cfdh_edmundo

As far as I'm concerned, his new name is Miller Lite. I'm surprised no-one's mentioned it before.

He didn't look to bad from what I saw of him, he got a 7 rating
here, he doesn't seem as keen as Roy though![]()

"efficient and composed performance"
He was very poor, looked woefully short on confidence and strength
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I thought he did ok tonight - good passing and involved a lot. Still hasn't hit the heights though. Looks a long way off regular first team football.
How good it is to see that. If only he'd lose his temper before every Ireland game.John O’Shea: Lost his temper at times but did not let his side down
what a player..........have u ever seen such crap...watched last nights game man utd vs exeter and twice in as many weeks a conference side like exeter made him look very ordinary...would struggle to get a game in cobh....just hope we arent relying on this kind of talent for future years with the republic
well the thread is called liam miller and unitedOriginally Posted by davros
