Park Chu Young played 90 in a 2-0 loss last weekend. Had some near goals and is starting to show that he's coming around in form. He should start on Friday.

Cha Du Ri came off the bench in the waning minutes and appears on pace to do the same this weekend.

Son Heung Min played almost the full 90 coming off in time wasting mode in a win. Hamburg has quickly moved to comfortable mid-table when they were looking relegation bound so recently. Was a bit off... perhaps a bit of fatigue with 3 matches in 8 days. He should start vs Fuerth as he did not feature in Wednesday's b-squad friendly vs Lech Posen as part of the Rudnevs deal.

Although not fully confident as in his peak form, Ki Sung Yueng has shined despite Swansea struggling, providing a strong and steady presence in building up possession. Should start.

Kim Bo Kyung has been getting regular sub minutes, with Cardiff standing on top of the table. Hopefully he gets a crack at starting soon.

What to say about Lee Chung Yong... Came in with few minutes on Saturday and didn't even get minutes midweek. Not sure what Coyle is doing.

Park Ji Sung had an off match... perhaps running into the wall of fatigue after so much play (after so much bench time last season). He needs to step it up as QPR sit on the bottom of the table.

Koo Ja Cheol tweeted a pic of himself on his bike so hopefully he's nearing his return. FCA needs him.

Suk is still suspended.
