Lee Chung Yong started but was one of the first off the pitch on Saturday and was only a substitute midweek.  Perhaps the rest can help him sharpen up but perhaps Freedman will be looking for continued changes as they look for their first win.

Park Joo Ho has been starting regularly and should again Saturday.

Koo Ja Cheol looked far more comfortable in an attacking role and he should start again on the RW this weekend.

Kim Bo Kyung was subbed off this weekend and despite playing well when in, looks a bit ragged perhaps from fatigue.  Hong Myung Bo hopefully balances his international workload correspondingly.

Son played well over the past two matches including a big win on Saturday and a crucial last minute CL victory, including a nice assist on Saturday and drawing the foul that would lead to the opening goal.  On the other hand, two matches a week has certainly hit his endurance.  With Bayern coming in, perhaps Hyypia goes with fresh legs and work rate.

Ki has been playing well for his new club.  He should start on the weekend.

Kiu may get to be a sub this weekend for the first team.  He's been playing regular 60 min for B team.

Park Ji Sung appears to be hurt.  Ji and HJH are possible bench warmers while Yun is still nowhere to be seen.
