    Brilliant start to the season.

    Can see the Paddy Roberts comparisons but the big difference at the moment is Roberts always had a goal from outside the box or after going past a player, in him.

    That chance at the start of the second half was a golden opportunity for Kuhn, but he blazed it well over.

    What a difference from last season though.

    Fair play to him he's started well, 3 games and 3 goals and 2 assists. Maybe that dental issue did cause issues or maybe just a preseason can work wonders. Shame we didn't get him last summer.

    Those passess inside the full back are an absolute killer...another 3x today resulting in another assist

    As others have said, the big thing he lacks is a decent shot. Everything else he has in his locker. Speed, dribbling, vision. If he improves his shooting he'll be a £20m+ player.

    He's also rapid compared to Roberts.

    Just needs to find that little bit of composure and realise he'll get more time in Scotland, domestically..

    Best thing for me is his ball recovery. Really fights for it when he loses it and tracks back.
    Decision making and composure will come with confidence

    He reminds me of Jota for some reason. Imagine if we had them both

    I think he's got it in his locker..

    Also grafts like * back the way..

    Been majorly impressive and the good thing is you can clearly see the parts of his game where he can and will improve..

    Started to use his speed much better now. Ripped their left back for pace when the guy who's quite quick had a few yards on him..

    Aye, his pressing is second to none. A front three of Maeda Kyogo and Kühn must be one of the best pressing attacks in world fitbaw.

    Aye mate, so much legs there and all willing runners off the ball..

    Playing a high line against that from 3 is suicidal for anyone but with the way we're playing, even the domestic bus parkers won't be able to do anything with it with the amount of runs the midfield are making beyond also..

    Looking forward to seeing how they do against CL sides who leave gaps at the back. Pre-season showed we could exploit those kinds of systems if we're on it.

    Celtic winger Nicolas Kühn has started the season on fire with three goals and two assists in the first three games of the season so far.


    However, the German winger has been named on the bench this afternoon against St Mirren at the SMiSA Stadium.

    CeltsAreHere understands Kühn missed training on Friday, which is a blow as it prevents him from starting the game after a great recent run of form


    However, the clear positive is that he is fit enough to make the bench against Stephen Robinson’s side.

    After a respectable end to last season at Celtic, Kühn has proven to have found his feet and will be desperate to work his way back into the starting 11.

    Really liking his performances..

    Nice wee assist. Could've scored after another mazy run and also dragged players towards him for the chance Maeda ballooned..
