After the minor controversy last season I thought Lee Chung-Yong will make a switch. But nothing happened probably no serious offers. I expect him to make bench against Middlesbrough this week. He should get subbed on later in the game.
Son Heung-Min wasn’t part of the KFA team against Syria midweek. He left international break early to join his club in Europe. I hope he starts this week but highly unlikely. He should make bench this weekend against Stoke City.
Park Joo-Ho has recently recovered from a minor injury. He was back training with his team mates this week. Maybe he will make bench against RB Leipzig.
Ji Dong-Won should make sub this week against Werder Bremen. Hopefully he can score some goals this season.
Koo Ja-Cheol is our most consistent KPA player right now. I expect him to start against Werder Bremen.
Ki Sung-Yueng’s form has gone down quite a bit. He looked pretty rusty for Korea against both China and Syria. Looks like he is struggling to get first team football at Swansea City too. I expect him to be benched this week against Chelsea. He should get subbed on later in the game.
hey glad to see you posting here again nicole
nice post
