Koo Ja Cheol came on as a sub around 65 minutes. I didn't get to watch this but hopefully he's fit enough to go 90 minutes as he may start if healthy.
Park Joo Ho played 90 and should start again.
Lee Chung Yong played 90 again and reportedly continued his good run.
Hong Jeong Ho started and played 90. He's possibly back to the bench depending on the health of the normal starters.
Son played the entire 90 and looked a lot fresher on the ball, with three or four perfect through balls and some nice work on both ends outside of shooting. Hopefully he keeps it up for the final match of the first half where he should start.
Ji is probably out for this one too.
Kim Bo Kyung started but was pulled after a half. I expect that to result him being removed from the starting XI and maybe even the active squad.
Yun Suk Young showed some poor decision making last weekend. He took on defenders in bad spots and compromised the positioning when he lost the ball. He also had a large hand in another goal as he gave the attacker too much room and charged in too late. Once he committed to going in, McGeady simply cut around him and placed a perfect cross to (admittedly unguarded) attackers for the goal. Hopefully the team defense is better and Yun starts showing the promise he showed earlier in the season.
Ki Sung Yueng really struggled in the first half but eventually found a bit of a groove as he pushed up a bit more as Swansea got a hold in the match. He needs to assert himself more when possession isn't going Swansea's way and start taking charge when his teammates are struggling. That said a poor day for him is still pretty good work but his performances have gotten a bit dodgy as winter fatigue may be kicking in.
Kim Jin Su played 90 and was pretty strong for most of it despite facing one of the toughest attacking squads in the bundesliga. He pitched in at the front a bit but I thought one of his best attributes today was his strength, winning some good balls with some good lower body balance. He should start again.
