With the announcement of the selection and appointment of the new manager of the Chinese women's volleyball team, this means that the Chinese women's volleyball team has officially entered the preparation stage of the new cycle, for the Chinese women's volleyball team, the new cycle is full of difficulties, but in the author's opinion, when the new cycle of preparation begins, a dilemma is probably the biggest problem in the new cycle.
That is the second pass, to the previous end of the Volleyball Super League point of view, Ding Xia, the former main second pass has been Jiang Lang's talent, once with excellent physical fitness in the national team to break out of the sky Ding Xia, with the increase of age, technical and tactical has been involuntary, although there is still a good fight, unfortunately the body has not been able to keep up, the competitive state is plummeting, the new cycle wants to return to the national team may not be realistic; and Yao Di this substitute second pass, to be honest, the state is still the top level in the country, the beginning of the new cycle, Yao Di can indeed replace Ding Xia with the old and the new to become the main second pass of the Chinese women's volleyball team, but she is now 29 years old, who can guarantee that when the Paris Olympics, Yao Di, who is close to 32 years old, can still have such a state? In particular, Yao Di's knee injury is still more serious, and It is equally unrealistic for Yao Di to fight in the Olympic Games again.
Who else but these two Olympic nationals' second passers? Diao Linyu is a good presence outside of 2 people, and has also won 2 league best second passes, but since the injury in the 2020-2021 season, Diao Linyu's stability is still not ideal, for example, this season, her passes are always good and bad, there are still many inverted triangles and netting situations, plus Diao Linyu is now 27 years old, and there is a significant gap between physical fitness and Ding Xia, and when it comes to the Paris Olympics, it is difficult to say whether Diao Linyu can have the current state It was also difficult for her to compete in the Paris Olympics.
In addition to these veteran second passes, are there any second pass newcomers in the Volleyball Super League? The author believes that there is no, Mei Xiaohan, who was favored by Lang Ping at the end of the Tokyo Olympic cycle, last season, she was once abandoned by Li Yanlong, although in the second half of the season she also got a lot of opportunities to play, but overall, due to the lack of competition run-in, Mei Xiaohan's competitive strength has not improved, but there is a sign of decline, she is considered to be delayed by Li Yanlong for a season, which also makes Mei Xiaohan have a lot less opportunity to compete for the second pass of the national player in the new cycle, and whether she can return to the national team is still unknown.
As for Xu Xiaoting, who was once optimistic about the outside world, this season's performance is a big surprise, especially in the confrontation with the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, Xu Xiaoting's shortcomings are reflected vividly, although the ability to mobilize foreign aid is good, but she makes people see her "one tendon", will only die pass the No. 4 position, ignore the No. 2 position and the secondary attack, especially the back attack, Larson has been prepared for the back attack many times, but Xu Xiaoting has almost never passed, which is for the second pass, the single passing idea is almost a fatal shortcoming, This also makes it extremely difficult for Xu Xiaoting to impact the national team in the new cycle, especially in the case of only 3 years in the new cycle, there is not much time left for Xu Xiaoting.
Of course, some people also mentioned the Liaoning women's volleyball team's substitute second pass - Sun Haiping, indeed, she replaced Ding Xia's starting performance in the number of times, but overall, Sun Haiping's passing stability is still not ideal, passing ideas and other aspects also have a large room for improvement, want to promote the national team still need to work. Yao Di can replace Ding Xia with the old with the new, Mei Xiaohan is delayed by Li Yanlong, and Xu Xiaoting is "a tendon"
