Yun Il Lok-- Will have to re-earn a role from the bench.
Hwang Hee Chan-- HHC will look to extend his playing minutes but likely from the bench.
Ji Dong Won-- Warming the bench seems to be the best outcome lately.
Paik Seung Ho-- Should start but having not seen last match, not sure how off he was.
Lee Jae Sung-- While LJS played well and again in multiple roles, circumstances never quite broke his way for him to really to show his best. He rarely put a foot wrong and easily dribbled and passed his way around Bayern’s defense but his one big chance at goal was offside. They move to the next round in a massive upset and though maybe not a showcase for LJS, he flashed his skills often, looking comfortable and confident vs. the best, and should start again this weekend.
Choi Kyoung Rok-- Seems to have cemented a starting spot while healthy. Will want to play better than last week though
Hwang Ui Jo-- Will he continue to start? Seems there’s pressure to get some other offensive stars into the XI but HUJ seems to be earning more of managers trust. I’m leaning to a start.
Son Heung Min-- When Tottenham lined up with so many CMs, I knew the match would go this way. Yes Son didn’t nail his chances like he had been, but it’s hard when he had so few touches overall with such poor buildup play from the midfield. Son did well otherwise but he isn’t a true playmaker and Tottenham are clearly lacking there. Should start and helpfully has a few more weapons to work with.
Jeong Woo Yeong-- Likely a sub.
Kwon Chang Hoon-- Sadly out for six weeks or so.
Lee Kang In-- Since it’s a cup match and positive league results, I’d expect him to start but a rest wouldn't be a bad thing given fatigue showing last weekend vs. greater importance of league play.
