    Football mentality is spreading like a virus everywhere, I'm afraid we should get used to it...

    Turkey, Brazil and Poland have this problem but other countries don’t boo. Certainly not in Serbia, Italy, Sweden, Czechia, or anywhere in Asia would opponents be booed and heckled.

    How are you gonna overanalyze Erdem’s performance after 2 games as a backup and then decide to blame her for Turkey’s possible “downfall” later on😂

    Even for a limited squad Sweden/Haak had an okay NT season imo. Terrible setters but at least their libero is doing well for them. The rest really doesn't have the technique/skills to do much. At least they gave a good show in front of their home crowd. I'm sure that'll raise more interest from their youths.

    Regarding the Germany vs. Belgium match, if the Germans had lost, Cesar would have been entirely to blame; even Malta's libero would have dug that ball at the end of the 4 set.

    Rustiest libero in this tournament with a slow reaction rate.

    I love Egonu and I do respect her in and outside the court. Nevertheless, she was far for being a candidate for the MVP in the last WCH. For anyone who watched the last WCH, the MVP was between Gabi, Vargas and Sylla. As Italy won, Sylla was the best option, specially cuz she exceeded her level in the last two matches and she was the most solid player throughout the tournament (as well as Moki, but Myriam was more consistent).

    It doesn’t have any relation with Italians being racist Or not, if Paola didn’t get the MVP last year. That is shitting outside the toilette.

    My whole point was that Orro bagged that MVP easily because for most Italians she's the ideal representation of an Italian even if she doesn't deserve and I doubt Sylla would even be considered. Everyone was complaining when Michieletto won MVP.


    Never forget

    WCH MVP + Best Setter + Fenerbahce throwing money on her + Maja acknowledging her and Vargas saying she's the best :aww::aww::aww::aww: truly overrated

    "pretty privilege" or whatever plus Italians are racist so if Egonu won MVP again Italians will protest that it's always her

    Haak is just outstanding right now. I can't count many players able to score regularly going over the italian blockers.

    Sylla gives me some Regla Bell vibes with this hair style.

    I'm surprised Tabron is a back up in her NT. I'm not familiar with Hellvig: I think she was in NCAA for a while and played with Guereca last season...

    As an individual, Haak is without a doubt a machine. She's the very definition of built different because wdym she's been playing nonstop and doesn't get injured thank god... that's honestly a miracle. But one thing I dislike is Sweden is still just a one-man team and nothing more.

    I guess her and Alanah Clemente have different scenarios, more likely Alanah to be in BRA NT than Julia

    Maybe in Clemente's case there's already some sort of agreement with CBV / scouts like when Alondra Tapia was studying highschool in Japan

    I’m posting it here since there’s no offical announcement yet; but apparently THY terminated the contract of Karmen Aksoy.


    I hope they paid her remaining salary; but it’s still a very bad image. They clung on to Orthmann for 2 years. They brought injury-prone players like Degradi and Daalderop. But they can’t keep a Turkish player who got injured playing for national team.


    They were playing in empty arenas for years. At this point no will give a s..t if they cease to exist.

    I wasn't aware of this but I made a comment on CEV's IG and a frustrated fan replied under my comment he did for all the comments... but anyway in his comment there's something about THY's management believing Karmen got injured on a ski trip. From the comment "Our esteemed volleyball player'🇹🇷 was injured during a national team match, NOT while skiing in Uludağ" that's so stupid if they think she got injured on a ski trip when her injury happened during VNL:gone:


    Where is she going to rehabilitate now?

    It's not a European thing because I can guarantee, whatever tournament it is friendly/tribute/allstar/retirement it's 10x worse in Brazil :gone: fans will go the extra mile to make mildly offensive banners and wave it to the players ahaha
