    Zé defines today The team which can go to Portugal to train and play. I believe the team will have friendlies with others national Teams since there is no competition set for 2020 by FIVB.

    well, jaeden85 is not optimistic enough for the uncertain future. I have been working in the hospital during this pandemic. Cancellation of sports events and postponing it creates mental fear. Don't foster on such negativities. Soon, there will be a vaccine and everything will go back to a better normal.


    sloth This was not the first time he/she made comments like that if you check on his/her history. He/she typed something like "you think you are only good one" in his/her native language. My use of "duh" is to tell him/her that serbia has been back on training if you know what i mean. 😂🤣


    This was never an issue to me at all. We came from different countries. In as much as we don't agree on some comments, i always see to it that what i type remains consistent with the thread rules. Looking forward to visit belo horizonte once border closure will be lifted and flights from my country to your country will be available. 😇

    Wrong choice of word there dude. That's why people think of you as an a-hole here. Better than though attitude. Anyone I'll ignore your future comments and be positive.

    DId you study english in your school? :what:optimistic is being hopeful about the uncertain future. if you know what i mean. there is still pandemic. anyhow, i remembered you. hahaha Don't be overly sensitive of my comments on how you commented how Brazilian players play against other NT's. :bump::bump:


    BTW, FIVB has free streaming to 2018 up to 2019 FIVB games. you can re watch your favorite Brazilian players in action. set up an account. Present a VALID credit card :aww:


    in this site, we have different opinions and respect to other's opinion have been practice since you first sign up an account here. KEEP TRYING. I know myself better and i am aware of my actions.


    Character assassinations and name calling are :offtopic:. this is a volleyball forum. moderators have this profile checked. :woohoo::dance4:


    Have a blessed Sunday! :thumbup:<3:saint:

    i prefer tainara but we will see. Maira also improved. This is we are talking about the height advantage.


    Fe garay and gabi are just two brazilian players who may not be even gifted with height but spikes hard, blocks a lot, passes and defends well...

    I don't like this approach... Ze tried Julia Bergmann and she was bad, really bad . She wasn't ready and probably Ana Cristina isn't too.. Players need to be tested in Superliga first, doesn't matter that she was good in U-level, adult volleyball is a different sport... He should look for young players that played already, like, for example, Karina... She played quite well (and she's going to play under Ze in Barueri), should be tested first, if he is really looking for young players (and not just choosing "famous" names)... To be honest, all the players that Barueri are signing for next season deserve more than Ana Cristina

    Easy! She will play in the base categoriea of rio/flamengo as described in the blog.

    But the question is will there be still a Tokyo OG? Other countries will have not yet peaked with the virus later this year and will have no time to train for 2021. Might as well cancel 2021 and have Tokyo 2032.

    Be optimistic. Serbia is already back on training. Duh

    come on! You can't call a team with a reception line of Jacqueline and brait as a team without reception:what::white:


    A lot of setters succeeded without reception but Jacqueline-brait is not the good example of this

    are you really watching the brazilian superliga this season before COVID-19 shut it down? ellen is unstable in the pass. jacqueline and camilla brait covered for her and of course the spot for the opposite which in reference is either from Bjelica and Casanova. the problem is not the pass, it is the third ball who cannot kill the ball for their team.


    the problem secondary to this is also the main technician of Osasco which is Luizomar. you cannot put an opposite to the outside hitter position covering the serve/receive line because the pass will suffer. now, the result to this is roberta cannot set to her middles which is one of the reason she cannot set well to mara and bia this season.


    for God's sake, Roberta did not even pay me to promote nor defend her. it is what it is. that's the explanation. in an interview where they lost to Barueri and Dentil Praia in 3-0 and 3-1, she took responsibility of her actions since she is a captain and the main head in court of their team. i just cannot seem to understand the hate about her! i mean, there are bad days for other players as well! macris in their game against rio had the unstable pass and she cannot use Thaisa and carol gattaz when it is really needed for their team. the two middle blockers got most of their score in the block. MInas lost to Sesc-Rio 3-1.

    come on! You can't call a team with a reception line of Jacqueline and brait as a team without reception:what::white:


    A lot of setters succeeded without reception but Jacqueline-brait is not the good example of this

    The problem with roberta was the reception (sl 2018-2019) while her problem this supwrliga is not the reception. It is the third balll who can kill the ball and make a point for the twam. Because of that roberta was punished heavily by the brazilians fans!

    But what if Sheilla starts? Dani Lins then? :P

    LOL that wont happen! Shiella and dani are not their prime anymore. They can compete being in the top 12 but i dont think they will be included.


    My second point here is to suggest that macris and roberta are two players that should be playing for tokyo! It is because of their connection to the opposites (lorenne and tandara who i am sure will be the opposites of brazil come 2021). Furthermore, I did not explain about the outside hitters since as we all know both macris and roberta had connection with gabi and natalia.


    Now with regards to the entrance of fabiola and now dani lins, i said in my previous post that fabiola was better than roberta in 2018 and so so in 2019 in club season but the former did not participate in any NT games. Dani lins PLAYING FOR BAURU is not the dani lins of 2012-2013.


    Fabiola and macris are two setters that are artistic, brave, and sets precisely. THEIR PERFORMANCE HAVE BEEN COMMENDED BY MOST BRAZILIAN FANS DURING THE CLUB SEASON However neither of the two have i seen played as second setter recently. Fabiola 2016, macris 2018 that i locked roberta for now as the substitute setter.


    On the thought about opposites play alone in a volleyball match, well most unstable passes are most certainly set by setters to their opposite. And the setter connection to the opposite is one that i try to explain here that i wrote that If macris is starting, lorenne would start with her. And if roberta is starting, then it should be tandara.


    If you dont like roberta and you prefer macris startinf, macris should work a lot during NT practice games to set to tandara precisely in the pipe. Let us remember that in 2019 tandara did not play in vnl and world cup only the olympic qualifier and roberta's set to her in the pipe line is one of the sttacks that serbia, china, usa, and italy cannot handle.

    let us remember that with the stable pass, macris should be starting! She cans set her middles easily! Now when the pass becomes unstable, macris struggles so much... watch brazil games against netherlands, turkey, poland. When roberta is in court, she delivers especially in serve, reception.


    However, fabiola is way better than roberta. She and roberta have this awesome tandem with tandera in position 5 and in the pipe line.


    For now i would lock in roberta as second setter.. and let macris/fabiola do the starting setter position. This is just my opinion whatsoever.


    If lorenne is starting, then macris should play as setter. If tandara is starting, then it should be roberta. Prob with roberta is really her imprecise sets to her middles. 😒
