The new Russian WAG head coach will be Evgeny Grebenkin. He was the main coach for the gymnasts on uneven bars through most of the '09-'12 quad.

Alexandrov's contract will expire on Dec 30th and it is unknown if he will continue to coach Aliya Mustafina. Anastasia Grishina has departed from her coach Sergey Zelikson. Alexandrov and Zelikson had some kind of personal beef with each other. It will be interesting to see what will happen to Mustafina and Grishina. Heck, I am interested in seeing how Russia will do in the next quad.

Hmm give this Grebenkin dude a chance. Maybe he can do something good for Russia. I'm really scared for Aliya and Grishina though. Who's going to coach them?
ReplyDeleteCan Afan's coach coach them personally :) She seems like such a sweet lady.
DeleteHi anon, I don't think Afan's coach can personally train them because they live in different cities. Mustafina and Grishina are from Moscow and Afan is from a small city.
DeleteHey Mr.Hang (hehe that name is pretty pervy). How come you don't just post your news onto tumblr? I see everything here first and then people are posting and talking about it on tumblr. You were the first blog to post about Alexandrov getting fired.
ReplyDeleteIt sucks that he got fired. He helped Russia so much this quad and then gets fired. Didn't they just came back from Mallorca? LOL, he got fired after the vacation. I know that sounded bad but getting fired after a vacation is pretty sad yet funny, ya know? This Grebenkin guy looks nice though.
Regarding Aliya and Grishina, it will indeed be interesting to see what happens with them. This might sound mean but I think Grishina is over.
I'm toooo lazy to repost stuff from here to tumblr. It's too much work for me. I only like tumblr for the gifs :D. The only tumblr I really pay attention for news is http://chinesegymnastics.tumblr.com/
DeleteGood news, I just read on IG that Alexandrov will still be Aliya's coach.
ReplyDeleteDude you're missing out on all the IG Russian thread drama. Everyone is defending their favorite Russian gymnasts. It's hilarious. BTW Grishina found a new coach now.
ReplyDeleteIn other news Vika thinks her fans are helpless vegetables!
ReplyDeleteI'm not impressed with IG. I heard all the drama between the gymnasts. I really don't care about it. Basically Vika is right we are vegetable fans and should mind our own business, but I'm a smart vegetable hehe.
