Scottish football pundit Marvin Bartley has piled praise on Nicolas Kuhn after a string of "breathtaking" performances.
The German winger has enjoyed a stellar start to the season for Brendan Rodgers’ side, registering six goals and eight assists in eleven appearances across all competitions.
It was Kuhn who snatched the winner in Celtic’s last-gasp comeback win over Ross County in Dingwall on Sunday to maintain their 100% league record.
Speaking on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard, pundit and former Queen of the South manager Bartley said: “He’s been brilliant, he really has. I think we spoke about it last week on the show, you speak about not writing players off too early because many Celtic fans last season did.

“But this season, he’s really taken a game by the scruff of the neck on so many occasions whether he starts or comes on as a sub. He’s been absolutely brilliant, breathtaking for them if I’m honest.
Later, went on to discuss Celtic’s squad strength: “They wear you down, Celtic. Mentally and physically, when they’re moving the ball, even when you’re bringing on substitutes, even if you’re winning against them, you think, wow, I have to deal with these players now.
“They’re fresh-legged, and as Brendan said, the players don’t stop. When you’ve got good players that are willing to work extremely hard, often on the ball, that’s a sign of a real good team, and Celtic are showing that in abundance.”
