‘Huge’ – Kenny Miller makes ‘absolutely crucial’ Rangers silverware claim
Kenny Miller has claimed that Rangers would rather win the Scottish Premiership title than lift the Europa League this season.
The Gers booked their place in the last 16 of the continental competition with an impressive 1-0 win over SC Braga on Wednesday evening, ensuring a 4-2 aggregate victory overall.
But former Ibrox hero Miller is of the opinion that domestic glory still remains the top priority for the blue half of Glasgow.
Speaking to talkSPORT, as quoted by the Scottish Sun, he said: “I think everybody would know the answer to that.
“There’s no doubt the domestic scene is the bread and butter. It’s what means everything to Rangers and Celtic. The league is absolutely crucial when you start out at the start of the season.
“So there’s no doubt, if Rangers were to have the choice, you’d have the added bonus of obviously stopping nine in a row, but it would be winning that league back as well.”
He added: “Listen, Europe is a huge, huge benefit. It gives the fans a little distraction, it gives the players a little distraction from the domestic scene which is always so intense with that rivalry.
