    With all the noise around Daizen and Jota, I’m hoping Kuhn takes that personally just now because if he puts in another Leipzig type performance he will cause them serious problems tomorrow night.

    I wouldn't say he's been that bad. Scored a great goal there and still been a threat.

    Said before in November time that he was never gonna be able to sustain that form over an entire season. Just not gonna happen.

    So I'm glad maeda has upped it even more and Jota is in as for a while we were very reliant on Kuhn.

    Kuhn will be up for it.....its like getting dumped from the 5-a-side team you played with for ages and then a couple of months later you come up against them in a wee competition.....Kuhn will try double hard to make an impact against the Germans.....

    Exactly! People need to remember the step up from last year that he's given us this season. Maybe next year he'll have developed enough to sustain it for the 60 or so games a year that we play, but it's a really big ask this season. I'd give him a good solid B+ or A- for this season. Up from probably a B- or C+ last year...

    Definitely need to check our expectations sometimes when it comes to our development/developing players or those emerging from squad positions to first choice (like Idah for instance)

    Looking for this young man to light up the pitch tonight with a dazzling performance.

    He actually has slightly better pressing stats than Maeda - more to his game than the silky stuff.

    Unlucky with chopped off goal but definitely going through a dip in form.

    Aye, it's tough though, had to do a shitload of running in that half. Combined well with Engels a few times

    Aye his form has dipped over the last month, not terrible tonight but he is off it.

    Not necessarily a bad thing, means there's a better chance of keeping him in the summer.

    Partly to do with the changing of players so much? Be that resting him for big games or finding minutes for everyone?

    Feel he's been in and out the side more, perhaps seeing him less to make those impacts.

    Difficult night to judge anyone on attack wise.

    That goal counts and its a different evening potentially for not only the result but him as well.

    I thought he was ok tbh, not his scintillating best but it was against far better opposition than usual. Hopefully be back to the high standards we've come to expect soon.

    It felt most of the time he was taking the ball with his back to goal I'd have like to have seen us skip the full back and just launch a diagonal from CB to either winger a couple of time the space was there to try it
