Good to see Yun Suk-Young start, even though he is being starting as a left winger. I expect him to either start or be benched this week against Reading.
Ryu Seung-Woo was not in the squad list last week against Schalke, I expect him either to be benched or out of the squad list this week against Hertha Berlin. Ryu should really be looking into a January move after the Winter break.
Hong Jeong-Ho is still injured, he should be back after the Winter break. He is doing some light individual training at the moment.
I expect Ji Dong-Won to either start or be benched against Koln this week. Kudos to Augsburg for drawing with Wolfsburg last week. Let’s hope they win this week as they are on a similar level with Koln.
Koo Ja-Cheol has been great these days, he should start against Koln this week.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Kim Jin-Su these days. He has been struggling a lot in which Bild has taken notice. A recent article by Bild said Kim should be dropped from the starting 11. Hopefully Kim regains his great form as we know how great he can be. I expect Kim to either start or be benched against newly promoted Ingolstadt.
Ki Sung-Yueng and Swansea City will be versing EPL leaders Leicester City this week. This will be a challenge, they have to win this match as Swansea has been very poor these days and Gary Monk’s job is on the line. As Ki is a vital player, he should start.
Son Heung-Min should start against West Brom, Sonny recently said he wants to score a goal against West Brom. Hopefully he does.
Suk Hyun-Jun is a regular start, he should start against Belenenses.
Park Joo-Ho hasn’t be included in the squad list for Borussia Dortmund last week, as he is currently nursing an injury from the international break. I haven’t hear any news about him these days. If fit he should make a bench appearance.
Many key players are injured right now in Crystal Palace. I expect Lee Chung-Yong to either start or be benched this week. If he starts, it’s time for him show his talents.
**On the side note, the final Kleague Promotion/ Relegation play offs are on this Saturday. Kick off is at 4pm Korean time. KBS N SPORTS will be broadcasting the game. Suwon FC are the favorites to win this match.
