i liked how he was notionally playing right back but was in his usual central midfield position whenever we had the ball. tino was doing the same from LB, to lesser effect. miley was a lot more cultured on the ball. 

 

other positives - i didn't think he was the quickest but he tracked his full back well yesterday and rarely got done for pace. he's also strong on for such a young lad and used his physicality well to bully some of their players off the ball. he looks good cover at right back. 

 

only negative on a superb performance was trying to overplay it from the back in a tight position on the odd occasion, which could have got us in trouble, where he might have been better off putting his laces through it. but that's stuff he'll learn with experience. 

 

The physicality bit as well. He's still only 19. He's gonna get even stronger over the next few years.

According to Waugh, they had to hold a special training session yesterday morning to take Miley through all the tactical stuff and patterns for playing RB. He's clearly not daft. 

 

Was he buzzing ??

He was buzzing and really pleased the manager trusts him and just wants to keep playing and doing well. 

 

Btw I love his interviews. We'll look back fondly on these when he's a polished media performer in a few years time.

This is true, but give it time, he's got all the attributes associated with becoming a favoured, and relentless, target for the miserable cunts:

 

Broke into team young - check

Local lad - double check

Started well - check

massively endearing - he looks and talk like a child.

even his celebrations are joyful. yet to master the posing knee-slide or whatever. just runs off with a daft grin on his face like he can't believe he's just scored another goal for his hometown club. he's living the dream - no wonder he's buzzing.

Straight over to Sandro as well to give him credit, and then Bruno wouldn't stop hugging him. I get the impression Bruno loves the kid.

I loved how Thiaw pushed him towards the Gallowgate again to get some applause.

Bless him, he seems so uncomfortable getting the adulation he deserves
