Worse than last year but not that bad. They will have better setter and Merlo will be recovered. Diouf can't be worse than Quaranta. Di lulio and Blagojeviç are decent receivers, the biggest loss for them will be MBs. With short but good receiving OHs, they should have scorer MBs (Strashmira, Gioli etc.) but even if they manage to keep Nucu and Ruseva it will be enough to play for play-off
I wonder how Zambelli will play in A1, she was very promising in her junior year
Well, yeah, we lost important players such Piccinini and Arrighetti. But is the new situation of the club, the budget is lower, so they had to adapt to it. It will be very young team, so Lavarini coaching will be really important. Like Serdar wrote, I hope we can get at least one good MB, staying with Nucu or Ruseva I'd like. The team wont fight for the title most likelly, but I hope they can stay in A1, so slowly the club can organize themselves again to build a strong team again in future.
BTW, Sara Klisura was officially anouced today!
