Connoris way better than miller at full back .

Miller has to be first choice full-back. He had a few ropey games last season, true, but IMO the positive more than balanced out the negative, especially with the more focused direction he received from Arthur. I would say that Miller just about turned out to be our best signing last season, just edging Croft, who had fewer negative elements in his game but didn't deliver enough performances worthy of his price tag. For the sake of the team, Connor can bring quality to a number of backline positions. Conversely, we'd be wasting Miller's x-factor if we moved him on to the wing, or heaven forbid, tried him in the centres or the halves. We don't need him to learn more specialist positions at this stage in his career.

Can't agree with your view re Croft/Miller last year. I thought Croft was head and shoulders the classiest player in team and despite playing behind a beaten pack he provided some genuine "clutch" moments. While I enjoyed watching Miller, and will again, he was very inconsistent and by his own admission contributed directly to some very damaging defeats. I thought he improved greatly under Arthur, but he's still along way from being our best player.

Miller really needs to improve this year for me.
