OMG! If WYL gets in to the 🇨🇳🏐NT for Paris Olympics, he should be terminated immediately. It is really obvious, there is some power play behind. She is just unimpressive and hardly makes any difference. She is not an asset instead a liability for 🇨🇳🏐women NT.
It's hard to terminate him , unless we get the 'terminator' from the movies. His bosses at the CVA won't do anything to him... in fact many people think they're the real problem 
Cai is an absolute idiot!!
Playing such a weak team, he didn’t use any substitutes and used the same six players throughout!!
How are the younger players going to get any match experience under this dumb coach?
Also Diao is a real weak link due to her poor setting from off position digs, she’s also very poor in defence! I cannot remember her picking up many drop shot or spikes from the opposition!!

We were leading 20-10 in the first set, still he didn't let the younger players to have match experience. Perhaps he didn't want them to shine... if they did, it'll be hard to explain why he's putting WYL in the team for OG, instead of them. My own suspicion and opinion... I hope I am wrong 
Yes we're in the Olympics and yes, we've 3-0 wins against Bulgaria and Germany, but everytime I see Diao's substandard performance, I'm thinking how much stronger we can be with a better setter
I must say that her connection with YXY and WYY is good, although that's mostly thanks to the MBs since they can score over the block from any decent high ball 
I would like to see a (young) setter with faster style who can really make those two fly even higher. Imagine speedy MB sets from someone like van Aalen or Cambi, but then with Yuan and Wang to finish them off they would be even more unstoppable than they already are

for once i thought we actually played okay
I just finished watching the turkey game and I think this was by far the best showing from China in this VNL. They certainly have great hitters and blockers but the difference in this game was great ball reception and passing. I’m glad to see ZCN back playing that important role. She was a great addition to start each set. (CB’s strategy is to put her in when the team is behind 8-10points and that clearly did not give her a chance to succeed as by that time, there is no momentum) I think she adds much needed chemistry on the court. I missed her and I think the team did too.
Did anyone else noticed Gong was crying at one stage during tonight’s match? Was she upset because of something said to her? I am telling you, if Cai Bin is the one, I’m gonna to fly to China and smack him across the face. 
Edit:
Sorry, I’ll give him 2 Smacks.... another one for letting WYL play instead of players like Wu Mengjie, for the past two years.
What's the roster for VNL Finals? I know that China B but any names already?

What?????! I'll join you on that flight to China 
Can anyone who has watched the match against Poland tell us how it went? Did China win because they were strong or because Poland was weaker than expected?

The Chinese team was stronger than the Polish team as usual... head-to-head of CHN vs. POL prior this match was 15-5 (now 16-5). A day earlier on 15 June, CHN bt TUR 3-2 in a razor-thin, draining match while POL bt THA 3-0.
You can watch the highlight at VBTV YT channel here, and the fullvid here (HK TV live):
Good to see no more WYL (sorry, nothing personal, just not good enough at the world stage moreover for OG purpose; at Asian level okay), and all the players who were supposed to be included in the NT were called in: ZT, ZCN, WMJ, and ZYS... it shows that CB, or more correctly, the coaching team, and perhaps the CVA higher-ups were not blind & deaf, and indeed recognized the serious problem with the team after being failed in Ningbo, lesser players were out, good ones were in. I just hope all are healthy, injury-free and regaining their top fitness, and will have their peaks of games later in Paris.
I still could not grasp it why the team played so bad recently and lost to JPN 1-3 in Week #2 in Macau as well as lost 1-3 to CAN team in Week #1, those teams that CHN team normally did not lose during LP era, but I just jumped in after being absent for extended period after the team's dismay performance in OG qualification event in Ningbo, so many unknowns. Glad they meet again with JPN in QF on 20 June in THA, so a good opportunity to settle the score. Whenever the CHN team is starting to lose against the JPN team (also CAN team), it means the team performance is in bad shape, and not competitive, even not watchable(!), and some responsible stakeholders in CVA must take corrective actions!

Okay, still see the names of veterans WYL & ZH 
thus VNL backs to its nature for the team, the old purpose prior to the WR point constant stimulus, CHN will try some players, perhaps the final stages, who makes it to Paris, who's left out, fair, open chance. Training and players' final validation are the key objectives, hopefully the outcome is okay too. Btw I hope ZT is healthy & fit, so is ZCN!

Wow, interesting... Quite a different roster! I guess they're resting the "main players" for the big event next month... No DLY, YXY, WYY, ZT, LYY, Wu Meng Jie, Wang Meng Jie.
This might be enough to win Japan, but I'm not sure about Brazil in the Semi-Finals...
yao di will retire and become a teacher/coach after 2025 national games
Glad to see ZCN taking over but They just cannot get rid of WYL can they?
she should be nowhere near the NT. 
I really hope the younger players get a chance to shine, like WYZ and ZYS
