Kenny Miller ranks Brendan Rodgers in the same bracket as managerial greats Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp and admits it would take an “incredible knock-back” if Chelsea turned to him as a potential replacement if the axe falls on under-fire Mauricio Pochettino.

Rodgers is in the hunt for a domestic double in his first season of his second spell at Celtic having swept all before him during his first stint at Parkhead.

Miller, who starred for both Rangers and Celtic, reckons he is an “elite level coach” who is among the best of British.

Miller, speaking to BoyleSports who offer the latest Old Firm odds, said: “In terms of British managers, Brendan Rodgers is right up there and is an elite level coach, so it wouldn’t surprise me if those types of jobs were on the horizon at some point - that’s the level he’s at.

For me, Brendan Rodgers is an elite level manager and there’s not too many of them about.

You can think of Guardiola and Klopp in the Premier League at the moment - Rodgers is up there with these guys.

“He had a bit of a raw deal in the end during his time at Leicester, after his team achieved great stuff off the back of his time at Celtic.

Now, he’s got a month to prove that it was the right decision to come back - to do this, he needs to deliver the league and cup double for Celtic.

“In Glasgow, there’s always a positive and a negative

He needs to show that he’s a level above and deliver now.”
