The writing has been on the wall for Celtic supporters for months now, and finally reality has hit the team in the face.
This season, one of the most talked-about topics has been Brendan Rodgers’ hiring practices, both throughout the summer and the little window of activity that ended in January.
for the day of the transfer deadline, Adam Idah from Norwich City made a last-minute loan move; nevertheless, the Celtic board chose to spend £3 million for winger Nicolas Kuhn from Rapid Vienna.
Although it’s true that the 24-year-old’s life hasn’t started off as well as he would have liked, it’s not like he’s stepped into a situation where everything is going smoothly.
In any event, Stephen McGinn is unimpressed with what the adaptable forward has shown, and he bluntly declared that he wouldn’t even walk onto Kilmarnock’s team before Danny Armstrong and Matty Kennedy.
During those lost points against Killie, Nicolas Kuhn came off the bench. Celtics fan Stephen McGinn said of Kuhn’s appearance last month that it was “strange,” as he told The Scottish Football Podcast.
This season, Brendan Rodgers has only started one Premiership match for the team—the appalling performance against Hibernian—but he was quickly placed back on the bench over the weekend.
The impact of Nicolas Kuhn at Celtic thus far…
According to McGinn, “the club’s wingers aren’t suited to the way he wants to play.” “Liel Abada and Daizen Maeda performed a fantastic job with the pace and the style that Ange Postecoglou wanted to play. The crosswise and one-touch
Under Brendan Rodgers’ leadership, there is increased control. I thought it was a section of the park that required a lot more support.
“I just noticed that they made two odd business decisions in January: Nicolas Kuhn, when you talk about investing millions of dollars on a winger to upgrade a club. When a new signing enters the changing room, you’re in the mindset that “is he going to play for us?”You immediately become excited about “can he play for us?”
“Based on the available data, it appears that Nicolas Kuhn would not be a good fit for the Kilmarnock team, especially considering how well Danny Armstrong and Matty Kennedy are performing.”
Pressure building on Brendan Rodgers…
Let’s face it, there is still a lot of football left, including the trip to Ibrox, but the question is whether or not the supporters still have faith in the group and the manager.
To be honest, you can’t blame Celtic supporters for having very little faith in what they are witnessing or will witness in these last few months, considering what they have watched thus far.
All of this simply serves to highlight Rodgers even more, as many people were taken aback by his decision to rejoin the team after Ange Postecooglou left for Tottenham.
Since no one will feel sorry for him if the title isn’t delivered in May, you can be very certain that not many people will be shocked if he is kicked out.
