Weekend Preview May 18 and Weekend Recap May 11

Recap is being generous as I didn't watch what little was out there.

Ji Dong Won-- Surprisingly made the bench but it looks like it was to send him off in front of home fans. We'll see if he travels but he's not going to risk injury.


Koo Ja Cheol-- Koo started but he picked up an injury 40 minutes in. It sounds minor but Koo will be thinking about next season too as it seems his contract situation seems at an impasse. Schmidt hasn't ruled him out so Koo could start. UPDATE: Koo has now been ruled out


Kwon Chang Hoon-- Came on late but became the hero scoring the winning goal that keeps their faint hopes alive. Unfortunately they have to play PSG. Was the goal enough to earn him a chance again at starting? He'll be in squad and I have to imagine would be hard to bench but I haven't seen him play in a while.


Suk Hyun Jun-- Suk did come on at 55' and reports were that he did help enliven the attack but not enough to help Reims or KCH's Dijon. Maybe that's enough to push towards a start.


Son Heung Min-- Suspended but Tottenham did enough to keep CL for next season.


Ki Sung Yueng-- I assume Ki went home with nothing to fight for. Shelvey apparently did play well in his absence so food for thought for Rafa ahead of summer planning even if Shelvey himself seems likely to leave.
