Honoured to have been on commentary for the moment when Jeonbuk claimed their 10th #kleague title. After three seasons of Ulsan dominance, Gus Poyet has completely changed the attitude of this team and making them difficult to beat. One of the best Jeonbuk sides I've watched in my 11 years here.

Hernandes and Joel Anasmo have both departed Jeonbuk freeing up two of the overseas slots in Poyet's squad.

Traveled to the UK Friday but did manage to catch Jeonbuk Vs. Ulsan through to jetlag. Talk of the title still somehow feels premature but that certainly was the statement win Poyet's side have been needing. The biggest challenge of their 13 game unbeaten streak so far and a massive confidence boost

🟢 Another game, another goal for Jeon Jin-woo yesterday as Jeonbuk defeated Daegu 4-0 to go outright top. It's Jeon's 11th #kleague goal of the season and 15th of the campaign overall. Can't remember the last time I was this excited to see a Jeonbuk player get a KNT call up 🇰🇷

With their 0-0 draw against Jeju SK this evening, Jeonbuk return to the top of #KLeague 1 for the first time since November 28th 2021, some 1,272 days ago.

Also, while he's getting plenty of plaudits already, Jeon Jin-woo is an early MVP candidate if he stays injury free keeps up this form. Still a long way to go but if he could just stop scoring for the duration of the summer transfer window that'd be much appreciated 😅 #kleague #JEOvANY

Are Jeonbuk 'back'? Nearly..? On one hand 10 unbeaten is some achievement, especially in situations they would've dropped points last year. They've got confidence and grit again. However, we still need to see how they fare in the 'big' matches. #KLeague #JEOvANY

FT | Jeonbuk 2-0 Anyang

Momentum maintained as Poyet's side make it 10 #kleague games unbeaten. Solid first half with Jeon Jin-woo scroing twice & already looking like he'll hold onto the POTM trophy in May. With Hong Myung-bo watching, a KNT call up imminent? #JEOvANY

FT | Gwangju 0-1 Jeonbuk

Jeonbuk very much on the back foot for most of this, and Gwangju should've scored at least once. However, Jeonbuk would've lost this last season. Tonight they sit in 2nd on a 9-game unbeaten run. Not the best football, but not bad either. It's progress.

🟢 Jeonbuk still lack options in attack although Poyet has said the concern is with the defence. Choi Woo-jin also notably dropped.

Gwangju have now beaten all three #JLeague representatives in this year's #ACLE. Incredible for a team that was:

1) In K2 just over two years ago
2) Loses their best young players
3) Had a summer transfer embargo
4) a citizen-owned club with a lower budget than most of #KLeague, let alone #ACLElite

FT | Ulsan HD 1-0 Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors

Reality check for Jeonbuk as they were outplayed at the Munsu and lucky perhaps it was just the one conceded. They showed fight after they went down again & it wasn't all bad but a reminder they're a work in progress

🚀 Ulsan finally take the lead and it's a Bojanic rocket from the edge of the area to put them ahead. Can Jeonbuk mount yet another fight back this week?
