Willie Miller reckons Neil Lennon should "absolutely" be considered for the Aberdeen job - and named four reasons he's a standout candidate.
Lennon has been out of work since leaving Omonia Nicosia in October and has been in the media in the build-up to Sunday's Viaplay Cup final between his old side Celtic and rivals Rangers. He's also had plenty to say on his future and while he hinted on talkSPORT on Friday that none of the vacant jobs at present appeal to him, he said on Saturday's BBC Sportsound that he's "refreshed and ready to go" and ruling nothing out.
Miller was speaking after Lennon's interview aired and the Pittodrie legend made no bones about the fact he would take the former Parkhead and Hibs boss as their next manager. He said: "I would think absolutely. The experience he's got, the clubs he's managed, the level he played at and the hunger that he seems to still have.
"He spoke about it there, missing the feeling, and it is a magnificent feeling. He obviously didn't mention the other side of the coin, when you get a dreadful defeat that drags you down and rips the heart out you at times.
"In the same sentence I can say that Lennon's had more highs than lows in his career. He should be considered for the Aberdeen job."
Miller went on to wish chairman Dave Cormack well in his recovery from open heart surgery, before adding on Lennon: "I don't know how far they are down the line in terms of coming up with a shortlist. But if you're looking seriously for a man who ticks a lot of boxes, then you've got to look at Neil."
