Could Miller be named young player of the year?

From unknown commodity to one of Motherwell's most important players. It's been quite the campaign for Lennon Miller.

The 17-year-old has gone from strength to strength since impressing in the League Cup group stages, quickly becoming one of the first names on Stuart Kettlewell's teamsheet.

His absence was felt in the winter months after sustaining a knee injury against Aberdeen at the start of November.

In fact, his absence has been felt whenever the teenager hasn't played.

Motherwell have won seven of their 21 league games when Miller has played this season (33.3%), compared to just one of 13 when he hasn’t (7.7%).

While the wait goes on for his first Premiership goal in claret and amber, his outrageous turn to see off Celtic and Scotland stalwart Callum McGregor in February was a sign of his quality.

The hype around Miller would only increase if he's named PFA Scotland young player of the year by beating Kilmarnock's David Watson, Lyall Cameron of Dundee and Rangers winger Ross McCausland.

His injury lay-off may hamper his chances of claiming the prize, but there's no denying his talent has lit up the league at times this year.
