Chinese fans have very high expectations and don't tolerate losing...very well. This is why whoever assumes the position of coach of the national women volleyball team has a mountain of pressure on his or her back. That being said, as Steve said, some Chinese fans are indeed warming up to Cai Bin, or at least are a little less harsh on him. But overall, fans are still skeptical of Cai Bin, unless he wins an international championship (which Cai has yet to do), will fans give the coach the respect he or she may have deserved. This is random - but do Chinese fans tend to support (or despise) any other national teams more than another? Do they hate USA more/less than Brazil? Japan/Korea? Obviously China having probably some of the largest fanbases in the world in raw numbers this may not be easy to determine, but, I know you say you read a lot of their comments/feedback so I figured you might know. I don't really think anyone dislikes a particular team except maybe Japan for historical reasons. Personally I just don't like their style of volleyball. For the other teams, it just depends on who are the current rivals and other current events. For example, Serbia was loved right after Rio for getting rid of the USA, and currently Turkey is mildly disliked due to ebrar and some others

That's great, she'll be the 2nd best setter, behind the best setter, coming from the Dominican Republic Brenda Castillo

Jegdic and uzelac were both sick. I don’t think Uzelac was cleared to play. Tijana is dealing with a foot injury. And we still lost 15-13 in the 5th ugh. So close even with a lot of sickness and injuries to key players

So close even with a lot of sickness and injuries to key players what i'm reading is at VNL semis and euros finals, turkiye escaped with a win. so they are beatable and not dominant like some people would have you believe
