JSW wins the PlusLiga. They have to easily be the favorites next weekend. I can see Trentino being particularly motivated since they fell off and won't be in the CL next year.... but JSW is a few steps above them on paper.

Berlin wins the Bundesliga again after falling 0-2 in the series.
They easily swept Friedrichshafen today.

Ran ace to get Monza a break point lead. Perugia TO.
The Giannelli-Ben Tara connection looking rough early.

Brazil really needs to start Fernando this summer. They probably won't, but they should.

Brazil really needs to start Fernando this summer. They probably won't, but they should. No argument here. Similarly, I doubt that Bernardinho benches his son.

Maar's awful passing aside, Monza looks solid!
Nice 25-18 set 1 win

Just got to watch the replay and geez Ishikawa played out of his mind today. Probably the best match I have seen him play this season. He has to be one if not the best and most well rounded players in the world!!! I am sad that we won’t see him in the Italian league next season. I definitely think Ishikawa is Top 5, maybe even Top 3 OH in the world at the moment. I'm gonna miss him playing for Milano next year too 😭😭😭 Assuming Michieletto is the other OH, who is the 3rd you have in mind?

I think the rumored OHs are Gardini, Otsuka and Louati. Then KK stays. Which I don't believe are good choices considering they are going to be a CL team now. Louati? Meh. I like Otsuka. He's not the caliber of OH that Ishikawa or Ran are, but I'm gonna love watching him in the Italian league. Gardini would be such a waste. Can't pass, not consistent enough with his offense. They need a player who can terminate from the left at the rate Ishikawa did. Unless they plan to go full Reggers Ball and utilize Otsuka/Kaziyski for their passing. Completely agree that they need another terminating OH, none of them screams that to me.

This 2nd set just shows how bad Leon’s passing is for this level. Monza targets him relentlessly.
