Lennon Miller was raised idolizing midfield magicians Iniesta and Xavi, but he claims his move that caused two Celtic players to vanish on Sunday was just natural.

The 17-year-old gained notoriety for his incredible drag back, which deceived Matt O’Riley and Callum McGregor right before he put Blair Spittal up for Well’s outstanding opening goal.In the Hoops’ thrilling victory, Brendan Rodgers ran straight to the Well ace at the end of regulation, and Record Sport columnist and former Parkhead hero Chris Sutton showered Miller with compliments for his 84-minute performance.

But the young player, who was hoping to make up for the last-minute setback by leading Well to three vital points at Livingston today, maintains that his 26th appearance for the first team wasn’t even his greatest effort. When asked whether his brilliant 43-minute moment came from out of the training field, Miller replied, “No, it was just purely instinctive.” It was a little shocking when I caught the ball with my left foot! Blair’s finish was outstanding, and it was good to receive the assist.

“I enjoy seeing your De Bruynes; Iniesta and Xavis were my favorites when I was little. midfielders who rely on possession. Getting on the ball and showcasing my abilities is what I enjoy doing. Although I thought I played well against Celtic, it hurt to lose by three points.

“I feel like I’ve played better this season. I was a little bit sloppy at times and could have kept the ball a bit better, but obviously the turn was going to get all the headlines.”

Miller pressed Rodgers for his nuggets of wisdom, saying, “He just said ‘well done’ and ‘good luck for the season.'” Receiving acknowledgement from others who have achieved great success in the game is nice. Social media doesn’t really influence me, thus I don’t really look at it. All I have to do is demonstrate to the management my abilities on Saturdays and every day at training.

Miller doesn’t need to search far for ideas. As a striker, Dad Lee had a great career with Bristol City, Dundee United, Aberdeen, and Falkirk. However, Stuart Kettlewell, the manager of Fir Park, who was once a top-tier midfielder himself, has shown faith in the young player.

And Miller thinks he’s in the best position to advance his career after signing a new contract that would last until 2026 at the end of the previous year. “I’ve been here for almost ten years and have enjoyed every minute,” he remarked. They’ve given me this opportunity, so I want to take use of it to the fullest and try my hardest to help this football team.

“Since I was a little child, I’ve aspired to play football on the first squad. The management has given me a chance, and the club has been fantastic. Although it’s simple to bench a 17-year-old in favor of more seasoned players, he’s shown a lot of faith in me.

“I was a sitting midfielder in my younger years, but I can play wherever, and that’s what I want to do. All I want to do is play football and have fun. My father has provided me with positional job, and the manager has undoubtedly been a huge assistance in that regard as well.

“My father will talk to me after a game, telling me what went well and where I could improve a little bit. He has greatly influenced both my professional life and my home life, giving me advice on what foods to consume and what not to.

“Could he have pulled off a similar move against Celtic? Not at all! His head is his best foot! For him, keep the ball in the air!

Harry Paton, a midfielder, will be sidelined for at least a month due to an ankle injury, according to Kettlewell. The Well manager also promised to use every effort to retain Dylan Wells, the teenager who Record Sport disclosed is under Brighton’s consideration.

He stated, “It’s such a hard place to go,” and that his main goal is to win three points against Livi tonight. However, I think our players are ready to go out and play really competitively, and if we play well, maybe we can score more points.
