Son played a half and was subbed out after a lackluster performance as he looked fatigue from CL. Due to an injury to his primary competitor (Brandt) he may be forced to start despite CL next week and tons of international minutes.
Ji is still out but has returned to light running as he's a bit past halfway through original timetable on recovery. This weekend would be too soon.
Kim Jin Su was held out with injury despite indications to the contrary. He's now in Asian Games and won't be back for about a month.
Lee Chung Yong played 90 in another loss. He should start if fresh enough.
Kim Bo Kyung was out of the squad and may be out again this weekend.
Ki was strong again in a big win that puts Swansea 2nd in table only by GD. It will be a tough challenge with little rest and Chelsea away. Ki seems to be growing in confidence each week and showing quality on both ends of the pitch. While still the deepest of the CMs as first season in Swansea, he has a lot more license to roam the pitch and is filling the role smartly. Only negative was a really weak shot in a good spot. Ki should start this weekend.
Hong Jeong Ho surprisingly made the bench and started a friendly over international break. Hopefully his health is returning though I don't expect him to start.
Yun Suk Young is in a similar boat. He's finally returned to playing fitness, playing a reserve match over international break. Perhaps he may get a look this weekend though I'd expect Harry to go safe vs a bigger club.
