Zyta, Ivan Miljkovic got a silver medal at 1998 worlds. BTW, Ivan and Fei started on their NTs that year. Many people think Fei started as a middle, but he was an opposite, moving to play as a MB in the early 2000s.
Wow! This is awesome. Three great players – Papi is a legend, one of my all time favourites.
Welcome to my world! When you deal with kids who can barely understand that 2+2=4, you’ll definitely have to repeat yourself. ;-)
None of them is bad, only a lunatic would say that seriously, but Zlatanov is another kind of player. Perhaps, as you suggested, we should discuss about him in private.
Perfect! When you analyze passing, for example, you must consider the size of the covered zone and teammates, among other aspects.
Although he’s a libero, Marra’s passing isn’t very reliable. He’s a better digger than receiver. Zlatanov learned to pass around 10 years ago when he saw he needed that to reach a spot on the NT for Athens Olympics, which didn’t happen due to his quarrel with coach Montali. He had improved a lot in his best years and became a better passer. I remember him at 2003 WL, when sometimes he had a bigger zone than Giani, who was an all-around player.
I know that, in Lube Savani is covered by Parodi and Exiga.
Why do I have to repeat myself over and over again... By calling a player like Zlatanov, Kaziyski or Kurek uncomplete, one-sided or whatever you call it, that doesn't mean I call them a bad player. Everybody, me included recognises their abilities. I know very well, that those players can make the difference on the court by scoring difficult balls.
Zyta, I would have expected something better too. But the stats don't show everything. If a team has an outside hitter as main scorer, opponents often target on him with hard jump serves to break his rhythm in attack. And some players cover a bigger part of the court in receiving than others. Btw that is no excuse for Zlatanov. Next to Marra and Papi, is is for sure not the main receiver.
Really? I would say his reception is on Matey's level pretty much.
Raylight, of course being tall doesn't mean automatically being a bad receiver, Konstantinov is the best example, no doubt.
But being tall means being slower than small players because of your higher balance point. Standing tall, means that tall players have to bend down more to receive jump serves. In general tall players are not as mobile. You will always find exceptions.
ehm... I guess you know the impact of talent and natural given ball-handling skills. Savani and Zlatanov are totally different types.
To verify my talking, I just checked out the statistics from Serie A this year. Zlatanov was and still is a great player, but his reception is only decent. By far the worst of his team(Papi rocks!), worse than Kaziyski and Juantorena. Btw Savani has the worst reception of all of them, which surprises me.
I know but I meant first medals.
He experiencing another youth ;-) Kicking roma's asses by himself etc. Together with Nikolov and Papi they create Happy Grandpa's Trio. Take a look at the stats from last match: http://www.legavolley.it/TabellinoGara.asp?IdGara=22047
He needed knee surgery, so he couldn't be on World Cup.
for God's sake Ray! Thinking he could be worse than Sava it's a sin! ?
We have one young guy, Mika with 208cm height and his reception is better than Kurek's.
YOU like Zlatanov?! He definitely is a cool guy, very sympathic and courageous, I really like him therefore.
But as a player, he is one of those unbalanced, uncomplete players. Like a cheap version of this bulgarian player, forgot his name... I always thought this type of player would be your personal enemy, like it's mine.
I saw him lately against Rome. he scored 23 points in three sets. He got every ball in the critical moments. Impressive stuff.
I think you meant Kate’s opinion – Zyta explained that our Russian friend has a thing for Butko. Myself, I like Grankin a lot. Like I said, he’s aggressive and helped Russia to reach another level.
Are you serious? Kate, this guy will help your team a lot.
No Zyta, he started in the NT in 1998.
I think someone is upset because his NT wasn’t even mentioned. lol
During Wagner's Memorial we laughed with my friend you put fake setter on court against Italy and actually you use two opposites.
Don't discuss with her about Butko, Henrique! He plays in her favourite club, she is not objective, haha! ?
But seriously, I think you are a bit too crude for Grankin. First of all his float is pain in the ass. You can call Wijsmans and ask him about CL last year against Dinamo and Grankin's floats. I bet he will swear in every language he does speak ? I agree with Henrique, your game changed with Granking, everything started with this generation Granking/Volkov/Maxim/Yury [pity I can't add here Ostapienko, but I still cross my fingers for this guy!]. I remember our conversations about your team, my team, our mentality etc, so I think you will understand what I mean now. Although Russia started changed with those guys, they still experienced those "lost finals", lots medals. And it looks like it stays somewhere there in their heads. From those four I mentioned Berezhko has for sure the weakest head, then is Grankin. Maxim is strong, but sometimes alone. Volkov has good attitude and good head, but not very much depends on him, when setter looses his nerves.
While Butko joined the team when everything works well. Alekno came back and changed them, preparations went well, atmosphere was good, Grankin's injury let Butko get some experience and confidence during the round group. He joined the team and won gold few weeks later. He was not the one who screwed things against Serbia in Vienna. Of course he lost together with the team, but still he was the one who tried to save the team, not the one who blamed himself after the match. Gold from WL, won against Brazil, gave him a lot of confidence. Of course he has better head than Grankin, not every guy would give such a good substitution in the final, during his debut in NT.
Grankin knows he will have to fight for his place now. And that's good, as both will improve and who knows, maybe Grankin focused on fighting with Butko will get rid of this panic in difficult moments? If not, you have always Butko! ?
About Olympics, I agree with Henrique about Brazil, something is finishng there. USA will be there, but they won't repeat the success. Unless Thornton/Hansen will wake up genus in himself. About Russia... after ECh I'm not saying anything. I was one of those who were saying before whole tournament that Russia will win. I've been there in Vienna and I remember that before both semis my bro texted me "so we gonna play tomorrow for gold with Russia or bronze with Serbia?" and I thought maybe we should not underestimate Serbia so easily. I was right, ha. Anyway is it possible to do it again? We've seen many things in 2011. Serbia is still the one who can win with Russia using character as an advantage, but question is if Russia will make this mistake again?
[BTW did you notice? Ivan started career in NT with gold from Olympics and ECh. Those ECh were his last I think. Finishing career in NT just like you started? With two golds? That would be insane, but awesome too!]
Italy won't win the gold, but medal, why not. Poland... with us everything must go perfect: no injuries, best disposition straight in London, perfect atmosphere, opposite in great shape. I wish. Argentina? Not yet, in 2014 they will be dangerous for everybody, in London no. But if they will qualify to semis I'm stopping with guessing, because they are unpredictable. Cuba must qualify, but they won't be main opponent in road for gold. Same with Bulgaria.
So you have big chances. But like I said, after ECh everything is possible. At the end our expectations will be destroyed by Velasco, who will qualify with Iran, kick our asses, make us crying like a loosers and say "Guess who's back, bitches!" and even Cameroon's regime will be gone! ?
