Chinese NT 2019

According to the schedule, Chinese NT in 2019 will be "created" in February.

My prediction: (ltalic as I doubt)

S - Li Run-ming, Zhan Guo-jun [if healthy], Yu Yao-chen, Liu Zhi-hao, Liu Ze [I don't believe Mao Tian-yi]

OP - Jiang Chuan, Liu Xiang-dong [if healthy], Tang Chuan-hang [if healthy], Wang Jing-yi, Xiu Cheng-cheng [might focus on U20 NT if Chinese U20 could join in U20 WCH 2019]

OH - Liu Li-bin, Ji Dao-shuai [no captain], Zhang Bing-long, Zhang Chen [I don't hope so], Jin Zhi-hong [if healthy], Li Yi-ze, Du Hai-xiang [Yuan Dang-yi has been injured very heavily]

MB - Zhang Zhe-jia [if healthy], Li Yuan-bo, Miao Ruan-tong, Chen Long-hai, Dai Hai-bo, Gu Jia-feng, Peng Shi-kun, Wang Dong-chen [might focus on U20 NT if Chinese U20 could join in U20 WCH 2019]

L - Tong Jia-hua, Yang Yi-ming, Qi Jia-hao, Chen Jia-jie [I don't believe Ma Xiao-teng]

I am unhappy because OHs of Top 4 of Chinese League 18/19 are all foreigners, Leyva, Cebulj, Kuklinski and S.Bojic...

There is no Yuan Dang-yi because he has been injured very heavily.

I don't wish that Zhang Zhe-jia will leave Chinese NT “forever” due to his injury on his shoulder.

One MB with spike serve, Zhang Zhe-jia, Dai Hai-bo or Gu Jia-feng is necessary.

Quote from Angli

How about Zhang Jingyin and Rao shuhan ?

Zhang Jing-yin's injury is too heavy.

I think he should get more time to relax.

Rao Shu-han is the substitute of Zhang Zhe-jia in Shanghai VC.

Therefore, if not necessary, in my opinion, the coaches could choose one of them instead of both.

PS: If Qin Zhen (Shanghai VC --> J-TEKT Stings) becomes the main MB of J-TEKT Stings in Japanese League 18/19, after May, could he create the miracle of joining NT? He was the member of U19, U21 and U23 NT only without the one of the senior NT.

The 1st training camp of Chinese men's NT in 2019 is still unknown.

I don't even know whether Raul Lozano is still the head coach and where he is now.

In 2018, Raul Lozano returns China on March 18.

Therefore, does we have to wait for the time once again?

China is the home court of the men's volleyball quaification of 2020 Olympics in the group of China, Finland, Canada and Argentina.

The place will be Sports Art Center of Beilun District, Ningbo.

Quote from Rains

China needs to sort out their defensive woes. What's the use of a great blocking team without a defense?

I saw the finals of Chinese League 18/19.

At least, Jiang Chuan's defense is still failed due to his injured ligaments of knee joint,

The operation in 2013 only keeps his profeesional career but he won't "overbend" his knee joint for the better defense.

Others' defense only can keep the ball "in the sky" because the environment of Chinese male volleyball has become worse and worse.

I said the coaches wrongly taught the players that the reception (接发球/一传) equals the defense (防守) and the name is "digging" (垫球).

Chinese male volleyball has forgot too many things about the basic training.

Tall youngsters only like basketball. Someone thought Zhou Qi and Yi Jian-lian should be better suited to playing volleyball.

Of course, these are all excuses.

A good piece of news: Zhang Zhe-jia announces, "If Raul Lozano invites me, I agree to return NT."

I don't hope the photo becomes a ... joke ...

Liu Li-bin should join NT after Japanese League 18/19.

Zhang Zhe-jia, the best MB now in China, returns Team A.

The new messages about Chinese men's NT are still unknown now.

Last year, Chinese men's NT played five warm-ups against Argentina and Brazil in South America and one against Argentina in China before VNL 2018.

The warm-ups before VNL 2019 should exist but no one knows the details now.

The photo in the training camp:

According to the official news about the meeting among the officials of CVA, players and coaches of Chinese men's NT.

I don't see Zhang Zhe-jia. I don't also see foreign coaches involving Raul Lozano.

Whether Zhang Zhe-jia is in NT now is still unknown.

Photo 1: Jiang Chuan (with glasses), Zhang Bing-long, Miao Ruan-tong, Chen Long-hai (half face in the photo) and so on

Photo 2: Zhang Jing-yin, Rao Shu-han, Ji Dao-shuai (half face in the photo) and so on

Photo 3: all the players involving Zhan Guo-jun (with glasses), Wang Dong-chen and Mao Tian-yi

It is the rumor that Zhang Zhe-jia will return NT on April.9. I hope it is true. Liu Li-bin should return NT after the end of Japanese League 18/19 if his waist injury is not too heavy.
