It is safe to say that Celtic have not made a great start to the season. But they appear to have found some form in recent games and will be hoping to build on their new found momentum moving forward. At the moment, they sit fourth in the Premiership table, four points behind the Rangers.
While the Rangers do sit at the top of the table, they have had their fair share of problems as well and do not look like the side from last season, who finished the league season unbeaten.
One of their biggest worries this season has been the form of Alfredo Morelos. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 5 goals in 15 appearances.
On the other hand, Celtic appear to have made a sensational signing in the form of Kyogo. He has looked in brilliant form ever since arriving at the club. According to stats from Transfermarkt, Kyogo has scored 9 goals in 13 appearances so far. And it looks like even Rangers fans are taking notice.
Rangers fan calls Celtic star twice the striker that Morelos is
A Rangers fan tweeted out:
And another thing .. Furahashi is twice the striker Morelos is

There I said it 👀
It must be pointed out that it is still early days for Kyogo at Celtic and he will have to continue performing like this moving forward.
But on current form, he definitely looks like a much better striker than Morelos. The Japanese star has brilliant movement, incredible energy and an eye for goal. If he can improve on his finishing a bit more, there is no reason he cannot be the best player in Scottish football.
Celtic fans must be delighted with their summer signing. And things are looking even brighter when it comes to their options at striker, with Giorgos Giakoumakis impressing immensely in his previous two appearances for the Hoops, both of which came from the bench. On the other hand, Morelos has appeared to struggle in recent times.
