    Another good performance, just needs to get shots away earlier.

    Like him and think he's in for a big season

    Feeling positive about Kuhn this season. More involved than last season and getting into the box more. Decision making still feels a bit hit and miss but he's getting better

    Has lots of talent and potential but why always the extra touch?

    Showing what we were all hoping for. Decision making in front of goal needs worked on, but far more positive on the whole.

    Positive start. Making things happening and end product is getting there.

    One thing I've noticed is how many players he drags towards him. He makes that mcgregor goal. There's 4 players all drawn to him and an easy ball to set callum on for the shot.

    If he can work on getting his shot away and a bit more power in it then he will be double figures goals and assists this year easy.

    110% agree.

    It's his decision making as soon as he enters the box that needs work on. There's times when he has the ball and he could either slip someone in immediately or shift it and get his shot away. He does neither then runs into a wall of players.

    If he works on that, he'll be outstanding.

    Taking nothing away from his start to the season. Needs to keep it up/build on it.

    He needs to work on just getting snap shots away. Too many times he just dwells for a half second too long.

    Excellent today again, as others have said a few more early shots - even better

    I really like him, and have done since he came on against Aberdeen away to be honest.

    He looked indecisive at points last year and unwilling to take a player on, but we were incredibly incohesive at times last season.

    Any winger who is a positive dribbler, unless you’re Messi or Neymar, require runners off the ball to take men away and create distractions.

    We have that now as the team looks so much more functional.

    I think he’s class and will only get better. A definite upgrade on Abada for me. The only player signed under Rodgers who looks capable of playing in the first team, other than Schmeichel of course.

    He's looking good, rejuvenated from last year and bristling with confidence, I think he is going to make a big impact this year, and other teams and managers are going to see him as a dangerman, so they will devote more resources to counter him, which in turn will create new openings for our forwards to take advantage off.

    I think he is a different type of player from Abada who liked to arrive late in the box on the blind side of defenders.

    When he arrived last year we were scrambling a bit... We weren't in the place to give leeway, time, patience to players and it was harsh on the new signings... This season he's bedded in, got the full break and preseason down and the intense scrutiny is gone... Hopefully what we're seeing is the development that it would have been fair to expect last year beginning to show!
