I feel like Japan’s level dropped a lot these days. Too bad coz they are one of my fav teams to watch.

just realize Nabeya is not there with Japan. 😩 was she THAT bad that she got left out?
-
Ishii is just not good but I don't remember her being this bad

I would say this japanese team is rather bad at defense compared to what they usually are. Momii is for good setting but she lacks in defense. Kurogo is not good at all in defense. It worked ok with the attack power from Koga but without they lack too much of what made them competative. Shinnabe and miyashita was needed to challenge these teams in defense.
Agree, the level of defense has deteriorated as well. They can easily be tipped now, and the amount of digging has decreased. They use to have awesome decoy plays, such as fake slides (Yamaguchi days), combinations. All gone today...

Not at all. They just opted to bring 4 middles instead of 4 OH’s. Nabeye could probably made some game changes.

Variations of play is totally lacking. No combinations at all. Its very predictable.

Nabeya is not terrible but there's no way she would have bumped off Ishii

China is gone have huge pressure on their shoulders and Italy is coming relax and with full confidence.
Hard to believe that China can beat them, even when China was at the top they lost against Italy. Lets wait.
Now I’m rooting for Turkey for perfect European day -
Natalia
