I'd feel annoyed if he ended up leaving on a free, it would feel like a missed opportunity.
And to be honest, I like him! He gets a lot of criticism but he always gets stuck in and is up for it, makes the odd mistake but does plenty well.

He's not good enough for a team hoping to be challenging in the top half of the table for me. I'd get rid of.

I like him.
He's got weaknesses to his game, but he is a strong, athletic guy with decent pace, and is good in the air.
I think he will get a new one year deal, and will be first choice right wing-back next season with Kenayo Megwa challenging him

We are not going to have 22 players who are ALL exactly what we need to be where we want to be… that’s basically 2 teams… we need our best XI and then maybe at least 4/5 who can make a difference… no way we can have 22 players who are all good enough to be first pick players, it simply can’t happen.
Id like to keep LM in the regards he is worth having in the squad and can be a decent back up.
We can’t have it all, if we want our best XI then there has to be money spent on that, with as i say 4/5 on that par but imo we can’t expect every squad player to be in that mould, as some would not be happy to not be first pick, wages as well, 22 players on top wages? Can’t happen.
There needs to be some fine tuning

He's only 24. Plenty of time to improve. Work on his strengths and iron out some of his flaws and we'll have real player approaching his peak soon.
Definitely worth keeping in my opinion.

He’s got some really good attributes but lacks footballing nouse.
An example of this would be the Derby at Easter Road, Hearts late equaliser.
I still think he’s got plenty about him. However maybe as a squad player.

He’s from my local area .
I’ve been in company of a coupe of lads who went to school with him.
He was approached by league 1 English team last year with a fair salary increase but wanted to stay at Hibs .
Believe that’s still the case.
Dont think he’ll be short of offers in England or anywhere but he’s happy where he is .
His mate wouldn’t tell me club btw despite me filling him with Guinness

He’s a decent squad player. On his day pretty good.
There are plenty others that should be moved on before him. Would give him another year still only 24.

Agree with this. The most important factors for me are that a) his flaws are coachable ones, and equally the kind of things that diminish with experience, and b) conversely, his attributes can't be "taught" -- his physicality, his natural aggression, and some real flair.
Miller is exactly the sort of player we should be keeping and improving, imo.

Every manager ( I assume Gray would be no different ) always looks to improve the squad. As others have said you still need players who have experience to be on the bench. But not only that, some players need competition for places to push them on to higher levels and keep the levels high.
There are a lot worse players at Hibs. I would keep him and if we sell him, wait for the right offer, he is an Australian internationalist.
Sometimes I'm bemused by folks expectations.
Miller aint no Carlos Alberto but he is a good solid player for Hibs.
His annoying falling over for no reason seems to be diminishing which is good.
Next some work on his defensive positioning and his concentration, and he is pretty much a shoe in every week.
atleast until out billionaire owners start splashing the cash.
mon the aussie.
you should have offered a decent drink.He’s from my local area .

Yup, too many Football Manager players, no enough fitba fans.
I don’t think Miller is great by any means, but we have no idea what calibre of player the latest “recruitment team” are going to sign so I’d be included to keep him around for another year, but wouldn’t be committing to a longer term deal at this stage… he’s still very raw despite the number of games he’s played.
There’s also Megwa waiting in the wings, he’s on a very long contract so at some point the club need to decide if he’s worthy of a proper first team chance.

He seems to have gotten over his falling down routine so that's an improvement. I think he can improve.

He looks more Aussie Rules with the way he rolls up his shorts! lol
I like him. He’s got plenty good attributes.
He’s got decent pace, he’s a grafter who uses his physicality well.
He’s more than decent in the air.
He loves to bomb forward to link up with the attack and he’s got goals in him.
Unfortunately he’s got things he needs to work on.
His passing when put under pressure isn’t great and he can have the odd lapse of concentration which can be costly.
I think he’s very much still learning his trade. Needs a good coach to help him improve.

I still think there's room to get a player out of him.
He's a big, strong, athletic and game player.
He's not scared and I think he's always kinda looked like an outside centre half.
Sure one of the Aussies on here told us over and over he was a CB in the making early days.
I think he probably should be further developed by now, but he has been competing with Cadden who's just a better player.
I think he learned some of his football from Porto though.
Lewis seems a bit of a lad, probably fancied the status and attention Ryan got.
He's been better lately imo, he's not a bad option if he can get his head down a bit. I quite like him. He doesn't back down. Just needs to stand up sometimes. Cost us some shockers fannying around though. They're not as common though, I do think he's coming along.
