I also realized that ESPN is showing Belgian football so I'll re-introduce Lee Seung Woo into this schedule. Normally I'm excited to have another option available but I have pretty low expectations at this time for him so its mostly a lot of work.
| Day | Time | Player | Club | Opponent | TV |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saturday | 7:30 AM | Seo Jong Min | Dynamo Dresden | Ingolstadt | None |
| Saturday | 7:30 AM | Choi Kyoung Rok | Karlsruher | @Hansa Rostock | None |

| Sunday | 3:00 PM | Lee Seung Woo | STVV | KAA Gent | None |
Seo Jong Min-- Seo Jong Min makes the leap from Eintracht Frankfurt's U19 side to BL2. Given his age and abbreviated nature of last season, I don't have a lot of time watching him, but apparently injuries really slowed his progress at Eintracht Frankfurt and is now hoping to make the more moderate leap to the 2nd tier. Given last season's COVID shutdown, I have low initial expectations given that lack of play for the start but he did have a decent sized showing in first friendly so should have a role.
Choi Kyoung Rok-- Should start as he's been starting all the friendlies despite his long layoff with the injury at the end of last season.
Park Kyu Hyun-- Had a long look in preseason as Werder evaluated him for first team role but seems to have settled into a backup LB role so expecting him on the bench.
Lee Seung Woo-- LSWs season started off with anew manager well relatively speaking as he soon was playing 90 minutes and even scoring a brace in one match. The season soon went suddenly south and LSW was again unused, mostly out of the squad. He made a loan out to Portimonense where he appeared on the periphery of the squad, with small cameos near end of matches but no major run of minutes. He finds himself back at STVV... a late start supposedly due to an administration error sets him back a bit but with yet another new manager, has a clean slate to try to salvage his career. As of now, still looks like a bench player at most.
