Kudos to Guidetti for taking the blame on Serbia’s failure. He has the guts to say the buck stops here. Unlike Cai Bin, he said ZThas injured her wrist so he subbed WMJ in critical points. cB can’t admit his incompetence.

Does LYY gotten offers to play in the Turkish or Italian league. I hope the 🇨🇳🏐 association or her Tianjin club release her and let her play abroad. It will be a nice gift to her for her service to the country. Let her shine abroad as well as she deserves a big paycheck from foreign club. She is a elite athlete who should be given recognition outside of her country. Plus she will be taken care of better physically unlike in the domestic league she got to play all the matches even if the opponents are weak.

China made the quarterfinals this time. You mean two consecutive Olympics without medaling?
China best chance of getting to the podium was Tokyo Olympics. Too bad a handful of the core NT players were injured especially ZT. If All were healthy, there was a big possibility 🇨🇳 could win. This Paris Olympics, the players were not as good as they were perhaps most have past their peak and they are not physically injured free.

link to Serbia vs China link?

I noticed that local broadcast (China’s tv stations broadcasting the Olympics games) advertisements do not have the women’s volleyball NT as product endorsers . The blame for the failure of the women’s volleyball NT during the Tokyo Olympics was due to excessive endorsements . It is a pity that endorsements of the NT especially LLY and ZT (who we know are the pillars of the success in most of the cases) is affected by this event.

Wang Yun-lu might not participate in Paris Olympics 2024 according to her own words.
Sorry, it is not in weibo.
Hope this is true. I guess she has read comments from instagram, Weibo, etc that she does not have the goods to be selected to the NT and finally has the decency to decline to be a member of the 🇨🇳🏐NT.

if it was CB or Chinese coach, the key players if they are injured will have to play even against weak teams. They don’t care about the players and are willing to sacrifice the players to end their 🏐 careers.
Take the case of ZT for the most recent example. For years they didn’t treat injured playing arm - just bandage treatments, liedabout her injury was not serious and no rest to heal her injured arm.

Brazilian Volleyball federation announced that Ana Cristina experienced a slight discomfort in her left calf during training.
The medical team did not want to risk AC against Poland.

She had few opportunities to play so it's hard to tell, but i think it's hard to get back in shape after such a long break.. 2.5 years ? Also, I'm sorry to sound sarcastic, but I suspect she may be a stand-in for Wang Yunlu... so that if China qualifies for Paris24. Wang can rejoin the team. It may sound absurd but this is how important Wang is to coach Cai Bin
OMG! If WYL gets in to the 🇨🇳🏐NT for Paris Olympics, he should be terminated immediately. It is really obvious, there is some power play behind. She is just unimpressive and hardly makes any difference. She is not an asset instead a liability for 🇨🇳🏐women NT.

Cai bin just given asian ticket to japan
Japan deserved to get the ticket. I want China to go to Paris, but with the performances at the VNL so far had been subpar. CB is the culprit for the disastrous results. Does China has chance to go to Paris? With CB the results might not be any better. Get another coach and take the risk.

Zhu look like she don't want to be there and that don't belong to this generation based on her body language.
Felt that ZT kept her distance. There seems to be some tensions. However, the audience spoke their mind and showed ZT that they want her to be a part of NT.

Why are there rumours (in YT etc) that Zhang Changning might take up an OP position along with Gong ? Yes, she is quite adaptable and can play as both OH and OP but she’s really more effective as OH.
But Binnie Cai has a problem... ZT, LYY and Wu MJ are obvious choices to fill 3 of the 4 OH positions. If ZCN joins them, then there wouldn’t be a spot left for his precious Wang Yunlu... So the shifty coach is trying to move ZCN to OP, so the fourth spot will go to her. No matter what, he wants WYL in the team. This despite the fact there are other more skilfull and deserving players, eg Zhuang Yushan, Wang Yizhu, Zhong Hui, Miao Yiwen and others.
Can a top official in the Chinese volleyball federation overrule CB?

There is a thread for the 2024 Chinese Women NT, and there’s news that Zhu Ting is joining the NT to help China qualify for Paris 2024....
ZT might not be as powerful as before, she certainly will have a great impact to the team. WYL will probably not be able to join the NT unless there is someone pulling some weight for her.

Did Vargas play? How serious was her injury? She has been given time to heal her injury/ injuries which is good and proper. How come the Chinese / local players have not / were not afforded this kind of treatment (ample time to heal and rest and proper care/ recovery)? The Chinese players especially those NT players should be given this kind of proper care.

Does anyone know if zhang changning is even playing? She missed the entire round robin so seems unlikely she is ready to play but is still on the team
She must have powerful backer(s) to be able to allow her to decide when she will participate. That is what is called preferential treatment. Who (player) else has such connections?

Hope the bigwigs of CVL and Chinese clubs will allow the Chinese players to play overseas especially in / with Italian clubs and/or Turkish clubs. Wasn’t Eczacibasi interested to sign LYY years ago? If Eczacibasi can get / sign her, Eczacibasi probably would break the curse of being the bridesmaid most of the time. I favor LYY, GXY, YXY, WYY and some potential players to go to European leagues which seem to have applied scientific trainings / approaches and rest that lessen injuries.

Ni Fei-fan was great but now she is afraid of reception!
Is she still scared of reception? In recent years, a lot of players (Boskovic, Vargas, Haak, Egonu, Antropova, Vargas, Karakut, etc) are hitting the balls so hard, who wouldn’t be scared? The balls are hit fast and hard and they are like bullets coming at you. It becomes a risk of injuries to be hit by the balls.😱😰😬🫣
