Kenny Miller knows all about Celtic-linked Wilfried Nancy and what it is like to come up against a side managed by him.
Miller worked as an assistant to former Celtic boss Ronny Deila at Atlanta United, where they came up against Nancy’s Columbus Crew outfit.
The 48-year-old has become the favourite to replace Brendan Rodgers but Columbus chief Issa Tull has played down Nancy’s chances of leaving.
It seems that all roads point toward the Frenchman, and Miller has given some insight into what it is like to face a side managed by Nancy.

Kenny Miller guarantees that Celtic will play exciting football under Nancy
Speaking to the Scottish Sun, the former Celtic and Rangers striker recalled the crazy game between Nancy’s Columbus and his Atlanta side.
After racing into a 5-0 lead, Columbus Crew almost threw it away but held on to win 5-4.
Boring football will not be an option and Miller hailed the exciting football that could be on display at Parkhead.
He said: “I’m interested to see where it will go because it looks like it will move forward.
“His teams play really good football and it was tough to play against.
“We were 5-0 down against them at home. It finished 5-4 and we should have got something from the game!
“Will the Celtic players take to it? Have they got the players to play the way he wants to?
“He’s really possession-based and he focuses on that.
“They effectively played a back four but they built out in a three, with two No6s in front.
“The style is good and it’s exciting to watch. Will it be able to work at Celtic? Who knows?”
