Quote from Soroushia

Nikolov and Botolo are better than Pourya, but I don’t understand why Loeppky always has to play while Pourya stays on the bench.

It's quite easy, Loeppky has already played as a fake opposite on top level for Monza, the whole system of Civitanova was based on the fact that both Nikolov and Loeppky used to play in system of three outside hitters, and I don't think Poriya did. But he already subbed Loeppky against Perugia and was given a chance to play as a starter against Cisterna, so it's not like he doesn't get chances from Medei.

After 5th round:

Perugia is winning every game thus far as the only team in the league, but it's hard not to notice that they win game after game more due to depth (there's no team in Europe having one of Ishikawa/Plotnitskiy/Semeniuk on the bench) rather than pure quality of their starting lineup. 18yo Argilagos - a son of former Cuban NT player - played amazingly as a sub of Giannelli lately against Piacenza, so it looks like there's another huge talent on setter position in Italy.

Verona looked awesome so far - but Civitanova displayed all of their weaknesses due to steady defense and decent service pressure. It will be interesting to follow if they can address on any level their reception difficulties.

Civitanova - on the other hand - was great against Verona, and like always, is the best team in Italy while playing at home, but their middle blockers are really weak (Gargiulo is a mid blocker and D'Heer is quite bad so far), Balaso is so far out of shape, and the question still remains whether Loeppky will actually fill in the role of fake opposite efficiently.

Trentino - among top teams - is by far in the worst position. While Lavia finally had a second successful surgery and it is said that he may be back for the playoffs, it's still an unknown, Ramos is very streaky as a replacement - and they have no depth. Recently, Michieletto had minor ankle issues, so they finally decided to look for another foreign OH to temporarily strengthen their squad, because right now they have only juniors on the bench, and they're not ready.

Among other teams - one team I personally believe will be the most dangerous at the end of the season for top4 is Modena: they're still far away from their potential peak, but the depth of starting lineup is there, Luke Perry may be the best libero in the world for 2-3 years, and they're young enough to be competitive without that much of a thinking, I hope. Maybe not a serious title or medal contender, but I can imagine them being really problematic in the quarterfinals of Coppa Italia and the playoffs.

That’s a fair opinion. After all, I’m Iranian, and I’d like to see Pourya get more playing time. And as you said, it seems he’ll have more chances this season than last year.

Our other player, Golzadeh, has also performed well so far in Grottazzolina, and I hope he keeps it up.

It seems Baranowicz is in great shape. Old daddies in Cuneo are not an easy task for everybody.

Does anyone else have issues with Trentino vs Perugia stream on VBTV? There is a horrible bionic sound and streams goes on and off, and Gianelli now has a man bun, which actually is the worst lol

Not sure about that specific match, but I am watching the women and all of a sudden it said "cannot play stream" and directed me to the home page. So I guess it's just VBTV being VBTV (or they hate Gianelli's man bun as well and don't want to broadcast it)

I couldn’t bear it any longer and started to watch Padova vs Lube and it seems fine so far.

Lube lost from Padova

I had issues with that specific stream as well, it was just black for a long time.

I think it's more of a man ponytail, it reminds me of babys whose mothers put all their little hairs in 1 ponytail on the top of their head

Umu11 · Nov 23rd 2025

It is fine now. Trentino basically gave away the set.

Umu11 · Nov 23rd 2025

Trentino is doing their best to give away this set too.

Steven12453 · Nov 23rd 2025

Perugia owns Trentino and if Loser didn't make this line fault, then we could bout the suicide of the season.

Monza got away and they didn't relegate at the last moment, exactly at the end of the last championship. How on earth did they manage to creat a team worst than the last one ?
