Lee Jae Sung-- Should start. 


Lee Kang In-- A bit less certain of a start and leaning to no but hoping that he has a better chance of subbing on if he doesn’t. 


Paik Seung Ho-- Limbo


Jeong Woo Yeong-- Maybe a better chance to start against a weaker side but thinking he will be coming off the bench. 


Kwon Chang Hoon-- He wasn’t explicitly ruled out so a chance of being in squad though I’ve got low expectations.


Yun Il Lok-- We will see how much last weekend hurt but I’m fairly certain that it did not help. Unlikely to play if he makes squad. 


Ji Dong Won-- Should start and will be looking for renewed final third impact. 


Choi Kyoung Rok-- Should start. 


Hwang Ui Jo-- Two seeks to prepare may be the break needed to get closer to form but this system will always be challenging and prone to droughts due to lack of chances. 


Hwang Hee Chan-- Came on with thirty or so minutes left. Almost had an early impact, taking the ball to the edge of the box and shooting, but it was really poor. Sadly, Liverpool started to find their feet after and Hwang didn’t get another great chance but he had quite a few errant passes. Will be on the bench with a chance of coming on as a sub. 


Son Heung Min-- Another day too wide reduced Son to a crossing machine. He had a couple really good ones but against opposition sitting deep, Son struggled to do more between too many bodies in the way to shoot and deeper line hard to get past on the long balls. Was subbed off with twenty left or so after a pretty quiet night but Tottenham are in great place to advance and Son gets some extra rest ahead of NLD which he will start in.
