There is still more than a month to go before the start of the World Women's Volleyball League, the Chinese women's volleyball team is preparing intensely, Cai Bin guided the finalization of the first 20-person training list, and the candidate for the main offensive position has caused a lot of controversy. Because Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning are both in the recuperation period, there is no suspense in the No. 4 position dominated by Li Yingying, but its diagonal position, Wu Han and Zhonghui, who have been optimistic before, have lost this training, which makes Li Yingying's competition for the diagonal position full of variables. Judging from the player's technical characteristics and playing style, combined with the tactical system guided by Cai Bin, Wu Mengjie from the Jiangsu women's volleyball team has the hope of playing the role of a dark horse and becoming Li Yingying's new partner.
The main offensive line of the Chinese women's volleyball team, even if you look at the world volleyball arena, is also the top configuration, and the No. 4 position led by Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning and Li Yingying is indeed very luxurious. However, after Cai Bin took office, he had to face the difficult situation of Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning recuperating at the same time. The World League is getting closer and closer, and the comeback of the two is already a luxury, so this position Li Yingying will become the protagonist, playing the team's offensive core. According to the past Chinese women's volleyball team's first pass system, in the case of Li Yingying assuming the main scoring figures, its diagonal candidates need to have the ability of six rounds of one pass, only in this way can we ensure the smooth operation of the team's one pass system.
However, from the perspective of the main attackers selected under the guidance of Cai Bin this time, in addition to Li Yingying, the other five people have shortcomings in the support link. Wang Yizhu's pass is barely able to protect himself, Wang Yunruo and Jin Ye are not the top domestic security attackers, and Wu Mengjie and Wang Yifan, the newcomers, still have huge room for growth. From this point of view, if Cai Bin's guidance plans to deploy a one-pass and defensive attacker in Li Yingying's diagonal, there is no reason for him to give up Wu Han and Zhonghui at the same time. So we have reason to believe that Cai Bin's guidance has other plans in this position.
In fact, from the first pass system created by Cai Bin's guidance during the coaching period of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, some clues can also be seen. Last season in the absence of Zhang Changning, the Jiangsu women's volleyball team won the second place in the league, And Cai Bin coached that in many games, he tried the system of double passing, and achieved good results, otherwise the Jiangsu women's volleyball team would not have passed all the way to the final. The reason why Cai Bin's guidance dares to use the system of two-after-one passes is mainly due to the team's main free man Ni Feifan, who covers a relatively large area of one pass and defense, runs actively on the field, and can effectively protect the attacker.
Cai Bin coached that if this system is transplanted to the national team, then Li Yingying's diagonal will also be ready to come out. From the perspective of offensive attributes and cultivation value, Wu Mengjie will be the most suitable candidate for Li Yingying's new partner. Moreover, the World League is the official competition debut after Cai Bin's guidance to re-administer the Chinese women's volleyball team, and the focus of this year's national team is the Asian Games and the World Championships, so the World League is more like a training stage, and Cai Bin's guidance tests the effect of this system in international competitions through actual combat, which is also a reasonable choice.
At the same time, Wu Mengjie is still very young and has the opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of one pass and defense. When Li Yingying first entered the national team, there were also huge loopholes in the security link, but after three years of experience, Li Yingying has now grown from a strong and weak attacker to today's all-round attacker. Wu Mengjie can fully follow Li Yingying's example, copy her growth experience, and develop in the direction of an all-round attacker. Of course, what Wu Mengjie is showing now is only talent, and she needs to make more efforts to reach the height of Li Yingying in the future.
