Kenny Miller believes Rangers would have struggled in the Europa League this season with below par performances.
The Ibrox hero has dismissed the notion that his former club would have succeeded if they had entered the competition where they marched all the way to final last season. A stunning run saw Rangers go all the way to penalties in the Europa League Final as they overcame German giants Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig on route to Seville.
This year they battled their way into Champions League, but performances in Group A left them staring at an unwanted record of the worst group stage team in the history of the elite competition, finishing with zero points and conceding 22 goals, against Napoli, Liverpool and Ajax. Many have suggested that the level was just one step too far for the Ibrox club, with the Europa League their standard, but former Rangers striker Kenny Miller has blasted that claim. He is suggesting poor displays in Europe and on the domestic front would have seen them struggle against the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and old foes Malmo.
