Don't know, maybe Obmochaev got hurt, or he believes it will be fine with the one libero. Obmochaev wasn't going to start, I believe Verbov is the first choice libero either way.
Maybe he will use Obmochaev for the next weekend, or not.

Why 3 MBs? what happend to Muserskiy?
Muserskiy is getting a 2 week break. He has played a lot of matches this year. So I am sure he is glad for the rest and spending time with his daughter. Again I don't understand a couple of the Russian coach' s choices I don't understand why Moroz is there, he isn't match fit. I rather Kruglov from Moscow as the other OPP, he was immense the last few games for Moscow. Ambrosimov was bad in Lokomotive. -
Alexander Sokolov is Libero
he was in Russian NT in London as help in backrow 
Obmochaev was main L there 
Ah thank you. I remember now. I can't believe I forgot him. He played in Krasnodar this past season. -
What does this list means actually ? i've read it earlier and wondered, because i do not get the point about doing a list more than a year before a tournament, especially considering you will be able to change it, it doesn't make sense to me
Exactly I don't see the point of it either. I think though that they just want to put out there, who are fighting for the places. I am sure Gamova and Sokolova can be added if they choose to. However, I think Sokolova is past her prime. -
Eh that list can always change. I hope Berezkho does make it because his receiving is definitely needed. Volkov is way too injured so it makes no sense for him. I am sure if Tetyukhin decided to come back to the national team full time, they will put him on the list. I can't remember who Sokolov is.
-
Yes. 3 CL, 1 CEV Cup, 1 Challenge Cup.
Ah ok thanks.Omsk seems to have lost half their team this off-season so far. I am not sure what they will do, as majority who have left were their best players.
-
Thanks for the final roster. Maybe they want to try Pankov with the senior team? He didn't play too much this past season, but I do agree, he is good.
-
Russia only gets 1 female team spot for CEV cup?
-
Zarechie Odintsovo came 4th, they don't get a CEV spot?
-
Agreed Obmochaeva was the best attacker in the league.
Dinamo's first signing is libero Ekaterina Romanenko from Odintsovo.http://www.worldofvolley.com/N…val-in-dinamo-moscow.html
-
I think she will be alright. When her sister was loan out the previous season. She was happy for her that she was getting playing time. Her sister needs playing time, it makes no sense for her to stay at Moscow because she wouldn't get any.
I guess we will watch and see who Moscow gets as replacements. They need a deeper bench
-
Marchenko must have been kicked off before last season, she's just a no
As far as I know Moscow's financial conditions haven't been solid, that's why they have had difficulties of transferring players. I hope they get a player like Robinson 
Besides Kosianenko was horrible throughout whole season, she needs to be better then.. I do think Vetrova is a setter that has bad technique, but Moscow played with her, that explains almost everything.
Marchenko actually had a recurring injury which is why she wasn't playing. Moscow's financiaal conditions seem alright right now, but yes they don't really have the money like Kazan to get some top foreign players unless they get rid of someone. They actually did good with Vetrova. I agree Kosianenko was awful and she needs to do much better. -
Dinamo Moscow release 6 players - Maria Perepelkina, Marina Marchenko, Nataliya Nazarova, Olga Fateeva, Valeriya Goncharova and Ekaterina Tretyakova”
http://www.worldofvolley.com/N…w-released-6-players.html
Good they need to over-haul their roster. They don't have good back ups for certain positions.They need to upgrade.
-
Krasno should find someone else instead of Sokolova and keep her as backup..she doenst have agreat reception (generally shaky reception when it matters most)
Exactly and there are some who want her to be in the Russian NT and be a starter. She isn't as strong/good as she was before. -
here we start again
btw..Kosheleva as not impressive as before....
She must be tired eventually, during the Russian league and also CEV cup, she got like 80% of the balls. Krasnodar needs a new coach for the next season. This one isn't good, and he needs to bench players when they aren't playing well, like Garay. -
Kseniia Ilchenko
Display MoreMy Starting 6:
Rússia B:
Anna Matienko - Daria Isayeva.
Irina Voronkova - Daria Pisarenko.
Irina Zaryazhko - Irina Malkova.
Ekaterina RomanenkoRússia A:
Ekaterina Kosianenko - Nataliya Obmochaeva.
Kseniia Ilchenko – Tatiana Kosheleva.
Ekaterina Orlova – Anastasia Shylyakhovaya.
Anna Malova.
Not bad, except no to Kosianenko, I rather Efimova or Startseva. Gosh I wish Babeshina was called, as setter is a problem. Startseva probably should get it over Efimova but Kosianenko would be my last choice.

Its OFFICIAL!
Rússia Team A
Setters: Olga Efimova - Ekaterina Kosianenko - Evgeniya Startseva.
Spikers: Olga Biryukova - Kseniia Ilchenko – Tatiana Kosheleva – Alexandra Pasynkova – Yana Sherban.
Middle Blockers: Ekaterina Efimova - Ekaterina Lyubushkina - Ekaterina Orlova – Irina Fetisova - Anastasia Shylyakhovaya.
Opposittes: Nataliya Obmochaeva - Natalia Malykh.
Líberos: Anna Malova - Daria Talysheva.
The only person I would put there is Babeshina instead of Kosianenko, but she was injured toward the end of the year, so maybe she will come in later. Heck even Moscow's other setter is better right now than Kosianenko. Happy to see Kseniia Ilchenko there as well.
I guess Gamova will come in later.

Now, its OFFICIAL!
Rússia B Team - Montreux Volley Masters - Universiade - European Games in Baku.
Setters: Anna Matienko - Irina Filishtinskaya.
Spikers: Irina Voronkova - Olesya Nikolaeva - Daria Pisarenko.
Blockers: Irina Zaryazhko - Irina Malkova - Julia Podskalnaya.
Opposittes: Anastasia Bavykina - Daria Isayeva.
Líberos: Xenia Kravchenko - Ekaterina Romanenko - Daria Talysheva.
So I guess Malykh will be in A team. Interesting selection for the B team, I will assume, some of the A team members might be put in the B team, at least those who don't get to play a lot.
