Nicolas Khun added to his season’s goal tally in yesterday’s 3-1 win over Hibs in the League Cup with an opportunist goal that came about as a result of the intense Celtic press.
The German winger had his critics last season after arriving in January from Rapid Vienna. However he has responded magnificently as he’s started this season on fire and is now prove his worth. Kuhn looks like he’s going to be a top player who will be an important part of Brendan Rodgers squad.
Nicolas has pace, hie is direct, he can pick a pass and he can finish. He also has a great work ethic and all those components make him very much a Brendan Rodgers type of player.
The winger has just got to show all that on a consistent basis and if does just that, then he will be become a regular first team pick. Indeed if you fast forward just under two weeks then if he’s in the team that starts at Celtic Park against theRangers then it’s fair to say that he’ll have established himself as the first pick right winger.
That would represent a remarkable turnaround for a player who was unfairly written off as a ‘dud’ after only a few games with the club last season. Once again proving that you can’t write someone off without giving them a chance, something we are often guilty of at this football club.
Wasn’t Henrik Larsson being written off by some after his first few games at Celtic?
