The 21-22 women's volleyball super league season has ended, and the league's technical rankings have also been settled. Wu Mengjie and Ni Feifan, two Jiangsu young players who have been touted by fans before, are not ideal in the ranking, they are all outside the 20th, which can be described as thunder and rain, but Yang Jia and Wan Ziyue broke into the top ten.
Wu Mengjie was praised by fans as "Little Zhu Ting" before the start of the league, but when it came to the league, Wu Mengjie's performance was not satisfactory, and the advantages and disadvantages were seriously polarized. Her advantage is that when facing short players, she can use her bounce to play super hand attacks, and the disadvantage is that she is weak in strength, and it is easy to get stuck when encountering teams with high nets or slightly stronger defensive ability.
During the final, This disadvantage of Wu Mengjie was exposed. In the face of Wang Yuanyuan and Yuan Xinyue's high net, Wu Mengjie's bouncing advantage is no longer there, and she can only accept the result of being blocked or defended. Cai Bin had to replace Zhou Pageong, who had a large power of the slam ball. This season, Wu Mengjie played a total of 57 innings, scored 213 points, averaged 3.74 innings, ranking 25th, behind Wang Yifan, Chen Xiyue and Zhuang Yushan.
Ni Feifan is well known by fans for her outstanding performance in the 19th World Youth Championship, and she is loved by fans in the league for defending against the attacks of Li Yingying and Zhu Ting, and even some fans call her "China's version of Castillo". However, with the expansion of the area of a pass and the increase of the area of defense, Ni Feifan's shortcomings have also been shown in this league. For example, when Ai and Wu Han go to grab the ball when receiving a pass, many times we can see a pass that can obviously be solved by Wu Han, and Ni Feifan has to lean sideways and bend his body to pick up.
Such an unclear division of labor has also led to multiple pass errors. As a collective project, each team member should still perform his or her own duties, and help others while ensuring that there is no mistake on their side, otherwise it will become a help. In this league, Ni Feifan had a large number of pass errors, and there were 6 direct mistakes in 2 games. The ability to adjust the pass and defense is also not as good as in previous editions. According to statistics, Ni Feifan ranked 20th in the first pass list, behind players such as Yang Yuning of Sichuan and Zeng Huilin of Zhejiang.
On the other hand, Yang Jia and Wan Ziyue, who were previously ignored by fans, quietly entered the top ten of the net blocking list. Yang Jia scored directly with 41 nets, ranking 7th in the net block list, equal to Liu Yu and Zheng Yixin, while Wan Ziyue ranked 10th in the net list with a total score of 30 points. It is worth mentioning that Yang Jia and Wan Ziyue are the only first-year freshmen in the top ten, which also reflects the potential of the two young players.
You know, netting is a passive skill that requires not only technology, but also judgment. Generally speaking, the more experienced the secondary attack, the stronger the ability to block the net, because they have more experience in the game, can interpret the situation on the court very well, and judge the passing intention of the second pass in advance. Like Wan Ziyue and Yang Jia, who played in the adult league in the first year and could still be shortlisted for the net, it was rare, which was enough to prove the potential of the two in the secondary attack position.
