Kwon Chang-hoon @ Dijon FCO 2017-2018 [R]

Congrats to KCH for making a great recovery...and a great hair cut!

 

Did he get slower?
I think he's like 70% compared to his best last season.

 

Lol. Absolutely not, he just lucks rhythm.

 

imagine in the wc if we had kwon chang hoon instead of fking msm ...

really glad to see he's up and running after his injury. Seems to me he gets a lot of offensive priority (word choice)? He's involved in a lot of offensive plays and just in that clip alone could have bagged a goal if not two (or an assist for that matter).

does his playstyle just align w Dijon's? or is he really just talented like that

 

He's got lots of freedom in that 4-3-3 system. And they had played this system before his injury, too. So for him it is easy to get back into the game.

 

He can do well in no matter what system and whoever his partner are. You can't say this applies for every player.

 

Yeah he is pretty versatile in PJS kind of way. Good understandings of tactics and space.

 

His best quality perhaps

 

Antoine Kombouaré, Dijon's new coach said about Kwon : "He's the first recruit of our mercato, really. We all know the importance he has in the team's game and I don't even talk about his mindset which is remarkable".

 

nam taehee and yoo byungsoo two koreans who struggled to reach their potential under kombouare

 

Kwon chang hoon doesn't belong in the same category as them.

 

Water is wet.

 

Starts (once again water is wet), but this time in a 4-4-2/4-2-3-1.

 

Right side?

 

Yes, but I expect him to switch to the left and even sometimes to play centrally.

 

Good shot, but directly to the GK. It was difficult to shoot tho. His class is visible (also a few great long passes). However, Dijon got a red card..

 

I'm glad he didn't make way after the red card. With ODO that was a sure thing.

 

Resting him?

 

Yeah.

 

Is there a reason why Kwon wasn't selected for the Asian cup?

Is it due to his injury and lack of playing time?

Not that I want him to feature in it, but I'm just curious.

 

injury and there was no way to know how much of his old self he'd get back

 

he came back after team selection.

 

Next day lol.
