I think she is injured/sprained her ankle , wont be playing for 2 months
is that really a reason to sign another OP? Expecially 2nd OP. I mean Szczurowska will play 99% of the time anyways

They can't just simply do that and that's why Scandicci has been struggling with their foreigners even with antropova being counted as local and having 4 foreigners limit
And again you are exaggerating and discrediting Turkish OHs, in the past both gözde and Neriman were carrier of the Turkish NT. Similarly hande has carried NT many many times (check Olympic qualification tournament). In 2023 summer, most of these OHs supported Vargas regularly and that's why turkey won against big teams. So stop that narrative of "all the OH always but always crumble under their pressure"
They were benched Brenda before at 2021/2022 and they manage it until the final (2023/2024) with Parrocchiale as Milano did when they fight for the trophy in 5 finals in 2022/2023 season. The fact that they signed Brenda show the exact opposite from what you are trying prove. They do have the roster that they want and they are comfortable enough in order to spend an other position to foreign libero who can replace whenever they want.
When it comes to Hande I have different opinion from the others and I do not undervalue her because she had a bad season . I consider her good and with Ilkin they did have important role in their team but she do not have the mental power in order to play her best in important matches. She just flops all time in finals and she is extremely unstable and therefore she is not a top level player ( her best season was 2023/2024 when she did things that do not usually do). She is good but not for Fener and Ecza but for teams like THY, Kuzeboru etc.
Now the fact that you use Gozde that has been retired since 2018 tells me everything that I want to know. The majority if not all Turkish OH's are not good enough for your federation's and club's ambitions and that's why thet made Karakurt OH despite performing horribly in the area that suppose that she should strengthen the team.

No idea. I know Kullerkann was training with them for few days. Maybe they wanted a backup since Szczurowska can be too error prone sometimes
I`m a little bit worrie about Malwina Smarzek, because she still doesnt join to Kuzeybory theam, while Czyrniańska join on Sunday, if I`m not wrong. Any info about this weird situation?
Does anyone has a link for this match? As I can understand from this x acount, some Chinese channel livestreamed this match. https://x.com/gibbybaris/status/1970121294701027351
the rumor:
main lineups: Tianjin 0-3 Fenerbahce [19-25,22-25,20-25]
substitutes: Tianjin 2-0 Fenerbahce
Malinov is a waste of foreign spot![]()
indeed, also Lazareva got like 100 sets in set 1 already
the rumor:
main lineups: Tianjin 0-3 Fenerbahce [19-25,22-25,20-25]
substitutes: Tianjin 2-0 Fenerbahce
So, no link for the match![]()

I don`t really understand this secrecy, why dont they show the games? If they are trying to protect new transfers from social media critics, Orro and Hande are gonna get cooked by fans eventually ![]()
Nilüfer Bld vs Beşiktaş
https://www.youtube.com/live/OvcqaR86E8E?si=oPy-9eysC33CGH6o
Shemanova is incredible, if only she was a little taller or more athletic we would be talking about top prospect
Nilufer about to win the 1st set even without Ndiaye
I wish Zeren went for Buse, how sad that dhe is getting wasted in Nilufer and Zeren is wasting foreign spot when they had such good option as local
I know its only a friendly game but Beşiktaş needs better OHs
Boskovic will travel to Italy with the team but wont play. According to the Vakifbank Instagram page, her right ankle is not fully healed yet. She will start the ball trainings after Italy.

I think they said it’s healed but she hasn’t done any ball training since she joined, she will start next week
Imo Turkish clubs once dominanted for years Volleyball World in Club level. Italian league was weak in that period and even Brazilian teams were abble to hire good playes from Italian league. Once Italian volleyball rised again the chemistry from playing with the same team in local competition and CL started to make huge impact, once Italian teams were abble to hire top players. Imo the + 1 foreigner player on court hás been given a huge advantage to Italian teams over Turkish teams.
a huge exemple of foreigners rules was that dream team that ECZ had with Maja, Tijana, Larson, Kosheleva, Adams, Thaisa.

Well I could say that the top CL teams and the whole leagues is a different thing but anayway...
The previous decade was dominated by Turkey and this (so far) for Italy. That’s all.
I’ve read that Markova has a small injury as well as Tijana. I am curious about their shape, because in two weeks there is a supercup match.

They are likely to play.
Markova might play in Italy this week in friendly tournament after exams are done.
Tijana won’t, but she is expected to start team training next week, she’s been only doing physical preparations since she came to Vakif.
I guess both will be physically fit to play supercup.
