Quote from Jules

i can't believe a bracket with 2 mid level teams that don't deserve a spot in SF

Yeah sure you decide

Any link for JPN DOM match?

Any link for Korea-Japan?

Can anybody share a link for Serbia Brazil?

I see Brazil as clear favourite against Serbia. Boskovic has always been their best players in recent years but Mihajlovic's lack of power in attacking is a big minus nowadays and we havent watch Serbia with 'this Mihajlovic' agaiant a strong team. It seems it is only Boskovic in this tournament. My predictions:

1)Italy

2)USA

3)Turkey

4)Russia

1)Brazil

2)Serbia

3)Japan

4)Korea

If Japan will be 3rd, they will probably 'draw' Turkey in quarter final.

Quote from crovolley

As long as they don’t face Italy.

I don’t know I have nice feeling right now for them.

A surprise win for Turkey against USA makes Italy wins the group and an easier road to semifinal for Italy

Quote from avid

Guidetti really left Derya and Ilkin at home for Seyma...

Loyalty is what matters

It is hilarious that Guidetti is expecting something from Tugba who is never given a chance in Vakıfbank coached by him.

I cant believe Guidetti insisted on Meryem such a long time. Meryem is a waste of time. She can be good only with double sub. Anyway

I cant stand Meryem anymore

Quote from Umu11

well, she didn’t perform good in last decade which this list was based on. I remember only ECH 2011 and she played OH. Before 2010, she was outstanding and would have been included for sure.

I didnt know that FIVB roster 100 only includes this decade. However what I was saying noone mentions Grün while making their 'best teams' regardless the decade, I wasnt refering this decade. I should have been more clear. Sorry.

Grün should be considered as well. She was a great OPP. I am quite surprised noone mentions her while making their best teams. Seeing Smarzek in the list but no Grün

It is a false information.

Has Mihajlovic waited for 2 years to play for Serbia? She did play for Bosnia Herzegovina and her change of federation and playing in Serbia NT was so quick if I remember correctly, just before London Olympics.

Quote from MTS

will Vargas be counted as Turkish player for the league next year?

She should play in NT at first, as far as I know. After playing in NT even for 1 game, she will be counted as Turkish player.

Quote from crovolley

I don’t like this at all. Okej one girl max who is not born in Turkey but now two girls playing in one NT that are not Turksih is crazy.

Now Turkish NT is gone be mix of Cuban, Romanian and Bosnian.

Qatar 2.0 NT.

That is definetely not the case for Turkey. A country which has been investing for years to be in elite level, competing in major tournaments for years, hosting big tournaments and you are comparing this with Qatar which is buying players to play for them. Bravo for your logic. I have really no words left for you It is bullshit. I dont know what Turkey or Turkish people have done to you. Seeing this king of logic in this centry, judging everyting from the same perspective is tragic for me.

Meliha came to Turkey when she was very young and it took time for her to be in NT. Turkey 'invested' on her. It wasnt like Aguero playing for Italy. It is kind of the same for Alexia as well. As far as I know, her family is living in Turkey as well, her brother is in U-team of Anadolu Efes (Euroleage finalist). However it is a different case for Vargas, I am not blind as some of fanatics or haters in here.

Vakıfbank power

Do you really think that teams, especially the ones will participate to Olympics, should be there with their B teams the whole VNL? The last time the NTs had official tournament was 2 years ago, they didnt train together for whole summer last year and missing VNL before the Olympics would be a questionable choice for me. Because of the covid, friendly matches will be a problem as well. I think Turkey NT should be there with the A team to get in the right shape, considering some of the starting six players havent had a good season this year. Actually except Ebrar and Zehra, there isnt a Turkish player comes to my mind that had a good season (not even Simge, Eda, Naz etc). Hande, Meliha, Cansu, Kübra, Naz, Eda should definetely play as much as possible to get their coinfidence back. It is imposible to play all the matches with the same number of players so there will be a chance for the youngsters to show which one deserves to be in Olympics. Especially OH position is a big question mark, VNL can be good for the selection.

There are some rumors Lila will be loaned to Yesilyurt

Mihajlovic is sooo out of shape I cant recognize her in the court. I assume she has a little injury but why does Terzic always use her then, even as an OPP instead of Vargas? Bušas level of play has decreased as well since the arrival of Kelsey. And what I noticed today is it seems like she feels more comfortable in the 2 receiving system. She couldt handle with the services that directly came to her. However, I believe both of them will be at their peak level in the Olympics. I always feel like Serbian players tend to play better in NT.

I dont have so much to say about the match, it was so boring and both teams seems like they ended the season in their heads after being eliminated from the CL.
