If Kim Shin Wook wants a permanent spot on the WC roster, he needs to perform well during these friendlies.
Our goal scorers were Chaminator and Pastor Choi, but if you're referring to Goalkeeper then that's Kim Byung-Ji.
oh i didn't notice park jong woo on the squad. Nice. I hope he can impress. Jitevra who do you think are the players to watcH?
Realistically, the Lee Keun-ho and Kim Shin-wook will be most important as they'll be the ones where goals will need to come from. I'm not sure if they'll start together, but if they do, they'll just need play normally like they did at Ulsan .. a year ago now Lee Seung-gi come back will be interesting too [although his spot in the final 23 roster looks too tough at the moment]. I'd imagine Nam Tae-hee has the edge over him.
I wasn't impressed by Costa Rica when they came to Australia last year for a friendly. They just sat back let us dictate the play, and also our finishing let us down to make the score line even bigger. In their latest friendly they got pumped 4-0 by Chile away. So it looks like Costa Rica away from home aren't so good, but in front of their home supporters are pretty decent.
It's a try-out team and it's not that close to the team they will bring to Brazil - no Navas, no Campbell, no Ruiz for starters. And Chile is just a stronger team - I think they finished 3rd in conmebol WCQ. I'm not sure if any concacaf team would have finished in the top half of the table in south america quals.
I'm talking about when they came to Australia. They did bring Campbell and Navas over here last November and i wasn't convinced. Well tbh, Campbell did look dangerous, but Australia were still controlling the match.
Hmm I disagree about the Nam part. It will be nice to see how Lee Seung-Gi is now post injury but to me he brings more to the table when healthy vs Nam
Maybe so but I am just going by what they can bring to the team right now and its LSG > NTH for me anyway. I would not be surprised to see LSG start at least 2 of these matches at the #10 spot. pending his health.
