South Korean ace aims for big season with Trotters
Lee Chung-yong claims Bolton Wanderers will benefit from his experience at the World Cup.
Lee played a starring role in South Korea's run to the last 16 stage of the summer finals, scoring against Argentina in the group stage and again finding the back of the net against Uruguay in the second round.
And the tricky midfielder believes he has returned to the Trotters a better player following his experiences in South Africa.
"I had a great experience to play against other countries' star players and we played well as a team too," Lee told Wanderers'
official website.
"That has definitely helped me as a player and I am looking forward to showing the fans how much I have improved. I want to play well for them and make them happy."
New signings
Lee has welcomed Bolton's new additions ahead of the new season and believes the club can target an improvement on last term's 13th place finish in the Premier League.
The 22-year-old has returned to the Reebok joined by four summer signings, including Martin Petrov, who arrived on a free transfer from Manchester City.
And Lee believes he and his fellow winger can cause havoc this year, starting against Fulham on Saturday in the opening game of the campaign.
"Our team is stronger than last season, we have a good balance," added the former Seoul performer.
"Martin has speed and good skill and we can make more chances for the strikers.
"I believe we can play better than last season. They are all good players who have joined and I have been training with them for two weeks now.
"It's been enjoyable and my fitness condition is okay now."
