I am not really impressed with the USA, Germany had too many blocks against them so far.. Especially on the left
2016 FIVB Volleyball World Grand Prix

Oh my! Alexis improved her serve so much.. she was a really weak server.. now her serves a difficult to return
-
What was that? Challenge in the middle of the play?
-
Americans just smashed that new German team off the court Crimes impressed me
-
I am really worried about Foluke's blocking performance.. it has never been her strength but under Hugh she improved a lot.. now she barely gets a block per match, today none. I think that's not an acceptable numbers for a MB that is considered among world's best right now

China beat Thailand 3-0: 25-14, 25-14, 25-11, simply too strong for the Thai's taste, better in all fields practically.
At some point I think the Thai team just conceded the match and chose to preserve their energy for next matches.
Zhang Chang-ning is getting steadier and sharper now compared to the last World Cup.
Liu Xiao-tong, Liu Yan-han and Gong Xiang-yu all just got short showing time. I hope these players will be fielded more tomorrow against the supposedly weakest team in this pool, GER. -
Anastasia Samoylenko is ready to play, she's expected to play against Holland tonight.

Good to hear. She hasn't played in NT since like, 2013? We all know she's a very decent MB, nice reinforcement for the Russians.

So sweet, Belgian girls smiling all the time while singing their national anthem Let's go yellow tigers!
-
Belgium starting with Van de Vyver-Leys-Van Hecke-Herbots-Aelbrecht-Heyrman and Courtois.
-
BUL led 23-19 in the set 3 vs DOM yet couldn't finish it, lost 6 points in a row, ended up lost in straight 0-3
-
Jeez, Who'd have thought Herbots is only 16 years old Van de Vyver's serves are perfectly working thus far.
-
Why is Nursevil starting again? I mean Turkey has like 5 setters in front of her
-
Herbots is AMAZING
Who the hell dresses Turkish NT staff?? Last year we had the mafia suits, this year we have the "cool business man" look
-
I really hope the cameraman stops showing the Turkish man. I actually wasn't so annoyed before, but now it's super irritating. I feel watching a documentary based on his coolness.
I don't like Van Hecke's current performances, she's quite weak...
-
Grrr, too many thoughtless errors!
-
Germany miss strong attack. If tall American Players without problems defended Their attacks, I won't be suprised if Germany have less than 10 points in one set v Asian Teams.

Germany doesn't miss strong attack, Germany right now misses EVERYTHING
Lenka Dürr is the only player in the current team who can compete on this level, everyone else is lost. -

I quit watching their match against USA yesterday, welp obviously I knew it would be impossible to beat USA, but I wanted to see some positive signs and apparently there was nothing I was impressed by. I don't really know why Pettke and Geerties were not invited or cut.

Geerties takes the summer off to recovery from knee problems.
