if you're going to criticize anyone on court tonight, it should be Karch. Micha didn't have her best night. Karch brought an injured setter as backup. Starting with Kelsey as an OH1 is just a travesty... and its a problem we knew well in advance. Frantti continues to be doubted and brought on too late... Injuries arent helping... but Karch (And staff) is just... i dont have words I don't understand why DS'ing Annie wasn't an option. Isn't that the benefit to having a Robinson?

This match is 100% on coaching. Santarelli coached circles around Karch. Really??? I mean karch made tons of good substitutions… Türkiye won because they have better players not because of coaching lol ERMMMMMMM NAUR

you can't break up with your only setter when the other one has a quad injury 😂 We have time. Hancock should not play again that. Well she HAS TO play tomorrow.

Whew chile the Lanier hate is insane. Please go back and watch this match and tell me with a straight face that she wasn’t carrying majority of the game. SHES LITERALLY THE ONLY OFFENSIVE PLAYER TO PLAY THE WHOLE GAME AND THERES A REASON FOR THAT

It’s fun to lose a match because of defense and serve receive when Morgan Hentz never sees the court and KRob gets taken out. Krob wasn’t passing great and she couldn’t buy a kill. Any coach would have taken her out. JWO has proven she’s more consistent than Hentz. Leaving krob in and taking JWO out was not the answer

Who could've been the 3rd setter on the list? Courtney Thompson,

Anyways really impressed with frantti.. still a lot of question marks who our actual best outsides are but she has been so consistent and improved so much Lanier there no question mark

as much as I appreciate that JWO and Micha clearly have leadership voices on this team, we need a vocal leader and they have to be someone that scores, just the way it is
Larson coming back can hopefully make a difference in that regard

Folks... a couple USA players were off tonight. It happens to everyone at some point. Jeesh. Turkiye did not really have players that had an off night. Jeesh. Players like Hancock had A LOT of great matches before this. The thing that was really disappointing was the unforced service errors. Bad passing from great Turkiye serves is one thing since they are forced errors. Horrible service errors that the other teams can get up fine IF they were in, doesn't do the USA any favors.

I want Rettke and O’Neal tomorrow 🤷🏽♀️ Chi and Haleigh could use the break They probably will. They wont care about VNL bronze. Micha-Annie (or JT) Frantti-Kelsey Asjia-Dana Hentz

This match is 100% on coaching. Santarelli coached circles around Karch. The last 5 U.S. points were due to foolishness on offense made by Karakurt. If Santarelli had replaced her, Turkey would have won earlier. And if I had the lottery numbers in advance I’d always win. Santarelli committed to playing her on the left, and stuck with her. That’s coaching. Acknowledging her good swing at the end of a run with a smile and a point to the head was also coaching. Circles. I stand by it.
