Kurek is super saiyan mode today 
VNL 2021

Don't forget that Guliani is Drzyzga's club caoch. He knows everything about the setter. Drzyzga played the middles a few times in the beginning but Bieniek was not able to finish. Drzyzga set to him 4 times and he didn't score a single point. Kochanowski got 2.
Yes sure. But I didnt meant only "set" to the MBs, but involve them to the game. When I wrote "call a MB" I meant that Drzyzga could make the Slovenian block think he will throw the ball to the MBs, but at the last time he sets to the pins.
For example, Kozamernik has only scored 3 points so far, but Ropret involves him in the game: Polish MBs jump with him.
Polish game so far is too much strength and few brain. Their game isnt flowing as in previous matches, it is all based in individual performance in attack.
Against better teams, Poland MUST improve.
Btw, Leon body language is
-
They don’t need Leon if Kurek continues to play like this.
-
Kurek is unstoppable today, that’s too much for Slovenia
He's not really playing great. Just his regular game but he's killing it.
-
Another Brazil and Poland Finals
-
Urnaut underplayed in set #3. One reception error, one step-on-line serve error, both are crucial points.
-
Gasp almost saves this set.
Congrats to Poland
-
Congrats to Poland! And also to Brazil, though I didnt watch their match, it was too early.
Hope Polska improve for tomorrow, otherwise it would be a Brazilian monologue.
-
Who do you guys think will win? Leon & Kurek are lethal but Brazil OHs duo is as good. Maybe it will come down to the setter?
-
Actually Brazil is performing so so well that I'm afraid Poland won't be able to play too much against them.
My biggest worry is that Kubiak is underperforming and with him as a starter it may be much easier for Brazil to win. Today he was finally subbed by Śliwka so it gives a hope that Vital won't stuck with him on the court. Also it's so hard to outplay Bruno so Drzyzga and our MBs will have to climb with his possibilities very vey high.

Which position do you think Poland has an advantage over Brazil? Setter is obvious. Leon VS Leal? Kubiak VS Lucarelli?

Zatorski is the only obvious one for now.

Leon VS Leal? Kubiak VS Lucarelli?
At this tournament Leal is much better than Leon. Today Leon was boiled by his mistakes in 3rd set and he didn't kill the most important balls. I have never seen Leal playing so well.
I would never compare Kubiak to Lucarelli as Brazilian is much better player. Kubiak makes a lot of hype around him instead of focusing on his play. Today's 4/15 shows that he shouldn't be a starter. Considering his shape he even shouldn't be in the Olympic roster. But there are other advantages he has - according to the coach - but unfortunately I can't see them on TV.
So Brazil is clear favorite.
The only position that Poland has clearly better player is libero Zatorski.
But at the end a team wins, so let's wait for the final

Do Poland has good back up for Kubiak? Because Brazil still has Douglas on the bench.
Do you think Kurek is better than Wallace/Alan? -
Do Poland has good back up for Kubiak?
We have Semeniuk and Śliwka on the bench - they won CEV Champions League this year, Śliwka was MVP of the finals, Semeniuk in matches against Lube and Zenit. I think it's good enough.

Slovenian players are lacking of the energy they have displayed during robin round. Is it fatigue or lack of experience in these kind of finals?

They lost their mojo

Congratulations France! Bronze medalists

Putting Brizzard in was a good move. At least their blocking got better.
