Kinda lost really badly to Lin Shidong and Huang Youzheng really badly at consecutive world championships which may have done him in in domestic rankings. Although the team is trying to inject "new blood" and fresher momentum into their competitive spirit, Only very few youngsters can get the...

I don't see what CYY can do to shake off a LYJ that plays well. I think his spot should've been given to Zhou Qihao.

I mean obviously coaching kindof99 would be so blissful for WH, he'd have a sh*t-eating grin instead.

Unfortunately, Kuai Man has surpassed her in the eyes of the coaches, and she's only going to play a limited role henceforth. It sucks. Hopefully she plays out of her mind in the contenders to come.

Can't wait for this event to start, Another Harimoto miracle? Which of the Harimotos??

A lots of excus.. nay explanations ranging from unfamiliar faces, places, equipments etc can be made about the downturn in their performance but the enduring inconsistency of the supporting cast in the CNT men's team is the sore thumb that sticks out.

I get your point, but this doesn't explain a disparity in coaching structure. I'm mostly curious about how many players are in the national team, how the national coaches are assigned to players, and are there any teams with a burgeoning amount of players in the national team. Japan resolves the...

Have you got a link? There's a lot of news that I miss

How come they banned them, yet they still throng every match and cheer for the players, which is which? And where they banned randomly or for a specific reason?

Mostly depends on popularity, most ML Vs FZD matches had very few cheers for FZD. But people are individuals so someone may start a loud cheer because they don't want LSD to win, others may join because they just came to support LJK, but everyone assumes they're just lousy WCQ fanatics. Reality...

Very astute observation. In fact teams like Japan more or less copied the make-up of the CNT as much as possible but retained some Japanese characteristics ( like clubs etc) But when I point this out, my logic is laughable and I am the foreign spokesperson for China. Some people think just...

What makes the German team or the Korean team different from the Chinese team in terms of coaching structure?? Coaches are few and far between, and lines are blurred. China just has more players than other national team usually accommodates which necessitates putting couple players under one coach.

Lol, on this trajectory she's already great and would likely win the Olympics with CM out of the way, but sure that moment was enough to dismiss her as totally lacking sportsmanship. Do you know if she was trying to get her emotions in check after being reprimanded?

Nah the head coach is plotting against her. I have that on record from agentic people familiar with the matter.

Out with the old, in with the new has always been the focus. CM benefited, FZD benefited, they shouldn't play victims now, they know how it goes. You act like China has so much logistics and cash to burn on inconsequential feeders to ensure everyone gets a chance to play. Their top players...

Have you asked Xiao Zhu if she's still interested in playing for CNT? Or it must just be the CNT plotting against her? She knows the culture in the CNT for players over 30, there's no point joining the team at this rate especially for a CANCER SURVIVOR due to the intensity that it demands. Macao...

It's just CNT design bro She can't be that good.

Our disagreements was on the use of the word clone. I did not and still hardly believe imitation partners for WTTC or Olympics purposes only are clones. A clone in the proper sense of the word, the way I know it, or in the context of how things were in years before was just on the team to clone...

W While I don't disagree with you that cloning might have helped him. Hit the ball early and change placement is not a tactic specific to Felix, virtually most of the top players do this when they're trailing especially the placement thingy. Xue Fei still looks very Xue Fei-y to me, forehand...

Cool story bro. Now where's the evidence that Xue Fei or He Zhuojia or anyone else beat the current incumbents at trials and what's their record against foreign players compared to the incumbents?? Out of all the tournaments Ziyang partook in, he probably won only 1 tournament to the best of...
