Group B Preliminary Team Rosters

South Korea Final 23:

GK: Lee Woon Jae, Kim Young Kwang, Jung Sung Ryong.

DF: Lee Young Pyo, Kim Dong Jin, Oh Beom Seok, Cha Du Ri, Cho Yong Hyung, Lee Jung Soo, Kang Min Soo, Kim Hyung Il.

MF: Park Ji Sung, Kim Bo Kyung, Lee Chung Yong, Kim Jae Sung, Ki Sung Yong, Kim Jung Woo, Kim Nam Il.

Fw: Park Ju Young, Lee Dong Gook, Ahn Jung Hwan, Yeom Ki Hun, Lee Seung Ryul.

Looking at this, I can confidently say Korea is sending their best possible lineup to South Africa. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the decisions Huh Jung Moo has made. Lee Seung Ryul making the cut is a bit of a surprise as the 21 year old snatches a spot fro Lee Keun Ho.

The Park Chu Young (Our best striker) and Lee Keun Ho FW partnership was extremely useful in our WCQ campaign but Lee's dip of form in Korean National Team and his Club games was probably the reason Lee was dropped.

Ahn Jung Hwan will be used as a supersub guaranteed. Huh and the media are saying that Lee Dong Gook will not be used against the Greece game because of his minor injury. Lee Dong Gook will be looking to prove something in South Africa.

Gwak Tae Hwi, one of our best Centre Backs got in injury in the Belarus game and will not be included in the squad. Best of luck to him. Kang Min Soo will take his place and most Korean are NOT happy with Kang. He makes reckless tackles and gives away pointless penalty kicks too easily. Thankfully, he will not be in the starting lineup and will likely be used as a sub for Lee Jung Soo and Cho Yong Hyung.

We had solid side backs with Lee Young Pyo and Cha Du Ri. Cha is a tall and strong player capable of taking an offensive role. (He used to be a striker) Lee Young Pyo has a lot of experience and played successfully for Tottenham. Kim Dong Jin is also a solid player and I have a lot of confidence in him.

Our Stars (Do not injure these fellows or we're fcked): Lee Chung Yong, Park Chu Young, Park Ji Sung, and Ki Sung Yong.

 

not very good.

 

but he has some potential... maybe if he gets more playtime he will get better?
