1. The problem of Shanghai VC in this season appears. Li Nan didn't play well. Sun Ze-yuan, also a freshman, finished his task. It's enough. I don't still feel Facundo Conte is very focused but Julien Lyneel is.
2. Zhang Su-lei was replaced by Tianjin's local setter again ...
3. Leonardo Leyva Martinez got the most points again though his power is or has been not the best.
4. The match of Guangdong against Beijing - Wang Dong-chen, Beijing's MB, got 5 points from serve. The reception of Guangdong VC is not good. Martino, Chen Jia-jie and Lin Jia-xi are the same. At least I think so.

1. Three former main players, Yao Bao-long (OP/OH of Hebei), Xu Peng (the second libero of Bayi) and Shi Xue-feng (OP of Liaoning) are back. Congratulations! I also hope Liang Zhen-hui get the chance to play a match though he should be the substitute player of Artur Udrys in theory.
2. Du Kun-yu got the first 30+ points but Henan VC lost the match - the same as female volleyball (Li Jing once and Li Ying-ying once, see this)
3. Both with two foreign wing spikers, Beijing VC and Guangdong VC won thrillingly. Perrin and Tillie don't do the best still. Kang Kang should be retired - at least I think so.
4. Fang Hao-yu announced his retirement - he took part in the front three matches only in order to "wait" for Zhang Chen's return.
5. Cui Jian-jun becomes the head coach of Henan men's VC from Round 5 - PS: Jiao Shuai has been the head coach of Henan women's VC from Round 4 - they replaced Liang Jie and Zhan Hai-gen.

Ranking until Round 5:
http://www.volleychina.org/rank/m/
Pool A
1 Shandong 4-1
2 Zhejiang 3-1
3 Shanghai 3-0
4 Bayi 3-1
5 Hebei 1-3
6 Tianjin 1-4
7 Hubei 0-5
Pool B
1 Beijing 4-0
2 Guangdong 4-1
3 Jiangsu 3-2
4 Sichuan 2-2
5 Henan 1-3
6 Liaoning 1-3
7 Fujian 0-4

From the player of the national team to the head coach, Cui Jian-jun's identity is changed
Cui Jian-jun said, "I won't let you down!"

Zhang Jing-yin - from the volleyball junior to the main player of Zhejiang VC
Some media even said, "He is Zhu Ting in the men's volleyball." - He is 205cm tall and born in Dec.20, 1999. He is an outside hitter.
In fact, I don't believe it - Zhejiang men's VC is unbelievably bad - the players' retired age in it are even under 25 years old due to players' heavy injury.
I only hope that in this time, I'm wrong.

1. Ji Dao-shuai's situation is not good. It is not a good message about Chinese men's NT.
2. Zhang Bing-long is back but didn't play well. PS: In this week, Liu Li-bin's score is more than Zhang Bing-long's in this week.
3. Do you believe Zhang Jing-yin will be Zhu Ting in men's volleyball?
4. John Perrin got the rest. Yin Jie's and Kevin Tillie's serves "destroyed" Henan VC in this match.
5. Jiangsu VC lost the match in the home of Sichuan VC in this round. Shanghai VC lost to Sichuan VC in Season 14/15 and Season 15/16. Zhou Jian-an is Shen Qiong's "teacher", so Shen gives up. However, Zhou Jian-an was Lu Wei-zhong's teammate in Chinese men's NT ... I have no words to say again and again.
6. Liaoning VC has lost many things such as players' experience. The one in No.19 shirt of Fujian VC is still none. Might Chen Chien-chen return from Japan (J2 League)?

The transfer:
Huang Bin (OH/L) will tranfer from Shanghai to Tianjin.

1. Facundo Conte is thought that his attitude is not good. In Set 4, he played as an OP and still lose the set and the match. There are no suitable substitute players in Shanghai VC. Some are too young such as Tian Cong, Jiang Hong-bin, Li Nan and Sun Ze-yuan. Some are still injured such as Dai Qing-yao. Wang Jing-yi played well in this match. Could he participate in World Club Championship 2017?
2. Yao Bao-long is back and proves he is still good at the site of opposite hitter.
3. John Perrin is still absent due to the waist injury. Of course, due to World Club Championship 2017, three weeks are given to him to be restored to health. Shan Qing-tao as the substitute OH and the captain, finished the task that Yin Jie "gave" him.
4. Yu Shi-bo returned Liaoning VC after 4 years though Liaoning VC still lost the match against young Henan VC.

1. Many players who participated in World Club Championship 2017 have rests such as Jiang Chuan (Beijing) and Julien Lyneel (Shanghai).
2. Dai Qing-yao, the former OH and OP of Chinese NT, is back though his situation is not the best and might not be the best again due to his heavy injury on different parts. Li Nan returns OH, the position in 2017 U21 WCH. Huang Bin played well in Set 1 and Set 2 and then, the weakness, his low height [1.86m], influenced him too much.
3. Left-handed Wang Jing-yi participated in World Club Championship 2017 due to his replacement of Tang Chuan-hang as Jiang Chuan's substitute player. In this match, I feel they drew. So did Ji Dao-shuai and Zhong Wei-jun. Yuan Dang-yi and Zhao Yi-chen won Fu Hou-wen and Song Jian-wei, so Bayi won the game.
4. John Perrin has rested for about a month. What mainly about his injury is still unknown. The freshman, Liu Hao, played his first match in this season. His serve is the spike style different from Yin Jie's and Kevin Tillie's.
5. Leonardo Leyva Martinez is injured on his shoulder. Chen Tao is injured on his waist in the same match. The future life of Sichuan VC in this season is getting harder and harder.
6. Yu Guang-hui is much weaker than I expect. As the main OP of 2015 U21 WCH, he just played like a substitute player now. I feel sad.
7. It is said that Guangdong VC will invite the third foreign player. I guess he will be a MB.
