Yes, they were probably the strongest teams
Not really...Slovenia was better than some of them,imo.Hungary and Romania got also lucky with their draws.Also Hungary only has Nemeth.

Has anyone told to Lambrini that she will be beheaded if she uses her MB? 125 sets to the OH and OPP and 20 to MB is crazy.
Its the coach's job to give instructions to the setter when the team gets stuck.Have you seen our coach being good?Personally,I would have swapped Tontai with Papageorgiou after the 1st set.Terzoglou was good today.The coach wasted the challenges too early in the fifth set.Also,once again big service streaks for the opponent which led to losing the lead and the set,from 15-13 in the third to 25-19 and from 7-5 in the fifth to 15-11.

Really I do not understand what they try to do in Fener. All these moves reveal a desperate desire to win and nothing more . They invest so much money only to sign players with similar characteristics ( Arina , Anna, Li) and problems. And despite having the same technical issues and it is difficult to believe that a team with Hande, Orro and Arina will manage to show right attitude towards Guidetti's Vakif that always play their best in the crucial matches and they already has subdued them in a mental level. Even this season despite having clearly a better team they were too stressed when they play against them. Just like Milano with Imoco.
At least they signed Korneluk.Arelya is a good setter,I think,she should have played more this season.If Orro doesn't play well,she could come off the bench and contribute.How they'll do will also depend on how Gizem will play,because she wasn't in good shape,in the finals.Milano will have Bosio next season and I believe they could surprise.

Only serve lol🤣🤣🤣 she is like one of the best servers ever in volleyball history, she gets 3-4 aces per game, it is not 'just serve'
also she is not a bad blocker to give Zhu an edge on that.I don't think it will happen but Arina would be a great addition to conegliano, even an upgrade to zhu
Fener was the team with the best service,in the turkish league,however,they ended up getting swept by Vakif.So service alone doesn't win you games.
-
They have zhu who has comparable reception/defense skills. Arina could do fine in conegliano system while receiving next to Gabi/de Gennaro
Zhu's blocking and defence,are better than Arina's.Also,imo,Zhu is better OOS and makes less unforced errors,only in service Arina is better.Apart from that,this season and the last season,Conegliano has as starters,players with experience of winning titles(unless,that was a coincidence),so that's also a reason that Arina doesn't fit Imoco.

omg another Hungary comeback.
Nemeth and Anthouli both had 35 points
For Greece it is a problem that only Martha was reliable today.Bakodimou and Strantzali should definitely contribute more,especially since they are bad receivers.Baka should have been subbed in especially in the 1st and 5th set that Greece was leading.Last but not least,it is a very bad idea that both Strantzali and Bakodimou play as the starting the oh duo,with Baka or Asimina being one of the two ohs,they would have a more balanced oh duo.
-
This was tragic from the Greek team.Terrible coaching once again.The worst part,is that certain players have "immunity" and it's almost impossible for them to get subbed out,even when they are playing badly.Baka and Nikologianni should have replaced definitely Strantzali and maybe Bakodimou.Papageorgiou hasn't been used at all in the whole competition.Imo,only Konstantinidou and Anthouli played up to their standards.Lastly,the officiating from the refs was terrible,but Greece should and could have played better.

They should have done the same tactic Belgium had today vs. a "smaller" team: have a libero play as OH to secure a steady pass and then involve MB as much as possible. Especially if Hester would face Seki in block she has the experience to use it. But either Felix does not see it or he has a bigger plan that really focuses on giving the OHs listed as much experience as possible.
Let's just hope he comes to his senses today and plays Hester as libero (or full-time OH) vs. Canada or we can already write up at least 5 aces for Kiera van Ryk
I think that,Hesper Jasper should start as oh,she is the only one who seems to be able to receive sufficiently out of the available ohs and also she will contribute defensively as well.What the Netherlands has to do if they want to have a chance to win is serve well and play with a winner's mentality.

I didn't understand why chatchu-on barely played.The setter who came from the bench, played really well.
For the people who have a problem with the website,that happened to me too,but then I used the vbtv app and it worked fine for me.

S: SKT, EMP
Opp: Babcock, Lednicky
OH: M Skinner, Logan, Roni, Franklin
MB: S Gray, McCage, Dodson, Igiede
L: Hentz, Fleck
What do they have against Simone Lee and they don't invite her at all?

Greece with easy win 3:0 against Slovakia..I wonder how could Croatia beat Greece and Slovakia beat Croatia
Well,there were some changes in the starting lineup for Greece,also some players played better.These were also the first games of the nt season,so it is understandable that teams aren't so consistent yet,in their games.
-
did greece have staff changes? they were so sluggish in the match against croatia and their offense really fell apart
There was indeed a head coach change since the last ech,however as a Greek,I'm very disappointed by yesterday's performance.The worst thing is that the best possible line-up didn't play. Greece was getting nothing from its mbs, especially in offense and they made Greece's game predictable and Croatia's block-defense more effective.Lamprousi shouldn't have played and Baka and Xanthopoulou were at least mediore compared to my expectations.The team as a whole, felt unprepared and lacking of chemistry, hopefully with more games this will improve.

can you say she is much better than Frantti and Lukasik? ı think she is a bit better but no she is not much better
In normal conditions, sometimes benching her for 2-3 games is logical. Probably at some point for 2-3 games they will need to bench her but they wont do it.
It depends, on what you mean,because based on this season's performances from the three players,ilkin was much better than the other two.If you talk about their best performances and seasons,then, I agree that there is no big difference.However,based on current shape,ilkin is their best oh,if she doesn't play well she should be benched,gs will have quality ohs on its bench anyways.
-
Has Fetisova signed with a team? Because,she would be really good for gs,considering that there aren't that many top level middles left,who haven't already signed with a team.

You could not say it better. The next season Novara will be so much the same and yet different at the same time...
As I said before it is hard to believe that there is a person stupid enough to sign as bench player in the same club for second time... So apparently Herbots ( who has the best reception) will be the starter OH along with Tolok ( who has more potential than the others) and Ishikawa with Lina who proved themselves as top level material and duo will be on bench... Such a waste of talent!!!
So the next season Novara will be:
S : Cambi
OPP: Mims
OH : Tolok and Herbots
MB : Bonifacio and Indy
L : Leonardo
On the other hand, since Ecza want to continue with Elif ( which I think it is a really bad decision) they will need 3 MB.
Jack is always consistent in being bad in difficult matches and concerning Rettke's connection with Elif... It is obvious that they straggling to work properly.
Novara's biggest problem isn't with foreigners for the next season,but with the Italian players instead.Imo going from Bosio and Fersino to Cambi and Leonardi is a downgrade and even if they would want to transfer players to improve their team during the season,it would be difficult for them to find good local solutions,in their positions.

Storck is swiss
I was referring to 23-24 season.
-
Also,people criticized Cesar for not being as good as Pogany and she was actually Germany's most consistent player in this match.
-
Couldn't they call that player who was second opp in vallefoglia,last season?
-
Any predictions about which teams will finish in the top 4?Imo Slovenia,Ukraine,Slovakia,Romania,Greece and Spain will probably be among the contenders and depending on how Sweden will play in the first phase,they could be too(because they have already qualified for the final four as the hosts).

Are you ok? S.V. League just started this year the president of JVA, Shunichi Kawai himself said they are earning their spot to be a top league. Japan was never in the top 4 that's why they deconstructed V League in order to revolutionize the format of the league since they were falling behind and the last VL president faced corruption charges.
That absolutely shows that Brizard is in Japan because they have the money nothing more.
So what is your ranking for men's leagues?What is your top 5?And in my post I was talking about this season obviously,I didn't mention past seasons.
