Kim Jin-Su has been a regular starter he should start against Schalke. Another tough game for this week.
Ryu Seung-Woo will not be in the squad list this week, he is currently in Ulsan, South Korea training with the Under 23 team/ Olympic team for the 2016 AFC U23 Championship in Qatar.
Hong Jeong-Ho has been great after returning from his injury, he scored the first goal against Schalke. He should start against Hamburg.
Ji Dong-Won started mid-week I expect him to either be benched or start against Hamburg.
Koo Ja-Cheol has being another vital player for Augsburg he should start.
Park Joo-Ho was rested last week and mid-week, he hasn’t been showing his full potential at Borussia Dortmund. I expect him to either start or be benched this week against Koln.
I expect Lee Chung-Yong to make a bench appearance this week against Stoke City.
Yun Suk-Young hasn’t been making squad list these last couple of weeks, I expect he will be either out of squad list or make a bench appearance.
Son Heung-Min has being benched for the last couple of matches, I expect him to either start or make a bench appearance this week. Hopefully he will be in the starting 11 and score some goals.
Ki Sung-Yueng should start against West Ham, time to bring back some lost points.
Suk Hyun-Jun is in great form, he should start against Tondela.
