Just as the teams are actively preparing for the new season of the Volleyball Super League, the Tianjin women's volleyball official, as the hegemon of the league, announced the news of Liu Yanhan's joining, and Liu Yanhan himself also spoke out on social platforms to confirm the joining. For Liu Yanhan to join, many fans feel that she will threaten the playing time of Chen Boya and Liu Meijun, but the author feels that former captain Yang Yi may lose his position.
Judging from the introduction of Vargas by the Tianjin women's volleyball team, they still want to change the existing "nanny receiving" playing style and strengthen the second position attack, so as to achieve a balance between left and right. After Vargas joined the team, the right wing offensive strength of the Tianjin women's volleyball team will indeed be greatly improved, but if Vargas plays poorly, or is limited by the opponent, if there is no substitute player who can stand up, then the team will return to a little attack mode.
In addition to the introduction of Vargas, the Tianjin women's volleyball team also transferred Yu Zhenwei in the team back to the Shenzhen women's volleyball team. Although Yu Zhengwei's strength was so-so, her right-wing offensive strength was much higher than Yang Yi's. This time, I was able to take the initiative to release people, but also because Liu Yanhan joined, I can fill the vacancy that Yu Wei left. Therefore, Liu Yanhan is likely to succeed Yu Wei and become the receiver and main attack double substitute in the team.
In fact, after Wang Baoquan re-took over the Tianjin women's volleyball team, he once wanted to change the team's "deformed" playing style. Whether it is in the championship or the league, Wang Baoquan has experimented with various strong receiving tactics, such as using Wang Yizhu as the receiver and changing Li Yingying to the second position to attack. However, because the time is too tight, so in the end, yang yi can only be reused for the sake of the results of the National Games. Fortunately, Yuan Xinyue's brief addition allowed the team to solve the second position offensive problem, but with yuan Xinyue's departure, the second position offensive problem re-emerged.
After Liu Yanhan joins, she will shoulder the offensive responsibility of the second position with Vargas. Perhaps some fans will question Liu Yanhan's offensive ability in the second position. Indeed, from the perspective of international competitions, Liu Yanhan's second position is not as good as the fourth position, but as far as the substitute is concerned, playing in the domestic league is still enough. If Wang Baoquan uses Liu Yanhan and Vargas to play, then Yang Yi can only give up his position in the team.
Of course, some people may feel that Yang Yi's pass and defense is an indispensable thing for the team, and once Yang Yi is abandoned as a back-row master, the Tianjin women's volleyball team may fall into a state of chicken flying dog jump. But what I want to say is how much I despise Li Yingying and Liu Yanhan's one-pass ability. Li Yingying has been training in recent years, her pass has not lost to other first-class players in China, the league and the National Games can receive 6 rounds of a pass; although Liu Yanhan is not a strong point, but the National Games will also collapse, the rest of the time a pass ability is online.
Even if Li Yingying, Wang Yizhu and Liu Yanhan all collapsed in a pass, there were still two players in the Tianjin women's volleyball team, Liu Meijun and Chen Boya. Liu Meijun's one-pass ability has been tested, and she can completely withstand 6 rounds of one-pass, and Chen Boya can also change his hand after playing. Taking a step back, with Li Yingying, Liu Yanhan, Vargas, Wang Yizhu, these four heavy cannons present, the Tianjin women's volleyball team does not have high requirements for a pass, as long as the ball reaches the three-meter line, it can launch a 3-point attack. Therefore, the role of Yang Yi, a guarantee player, is very small, and I am afraid that it will be abandoned.
