Wes Brown, Quinton Fortune, Mikael Silvestre and Alan Smith were all in the same 2004/05 and 2005/06 United squads as Miller, who tragically lost his fight against cancer in February this year. He was 36.

Another former colleague who spoke to ManUtd.com was Michael Clegg, who left the Reds before Liam arrived but later worked with him as part of Roy Keane's staff at Sunderland.

Below, we present the five ex-players' personal recollections of the popular Irishman, as they prepare to play for Keane's United XI against a combined Ireland and Celtic XI at Pairc Ui Chaoimh in Cork.

The game, which will raise money to help Miller's wife and children as well as charities including Marymount Hospice, is a 45,000 sell-out and will be shown live on MUTV, Facebook and YouTube from 15:00 BST. We'll never forget you, Liam.
