Evgenia Medvedeva

Old news.
Or is this a new edition of the rumor?

Geesh. Ignore these rumors. Somebody starts a new one every week. She and Alina are both staying with Eteri. Why would they leave? Team Tut are like the Avengers of figure skating and Evgenia is like their Iron Man team leader. :) If Evgenia or Alina leave then Katelyn Osmond will unite the “four stones” of the Grand Prix and...oops sorry, almost gave away movie spoilers. ;)
 
So I've just finished watching it. Although I hope there will be version with english subtitles some day, I think most of it does not require translation, the pictures and emotions speak for themselves.
 
Well, this rumor is unlikely to be true. Just watch this russian news again (min 3:50-4:10)

Zhenya said: yes, i am sure. I will stay with Eteri.
Eteri: She is like a daughter for me. (watch the photos on the table!)

I just found this magic video.
Epic music + Zhenya= goosebumps

Her documentary .

After watching it, do you think Zhenya would be Olympic Champion if the injury had not happened?:think:

Thanks for the link to the documentary! It was really good; it looked better than the Ice and Fame documentary, which itself was quite good. I can't wait for an English sub-titled version.

Yes, of course I think would have won. She broke her own world record twice on a bad foot after missing two months of training just before the games. How much better could she have skated if her training had not been interrupted? What she did was absolutely amazing.
 
Rumors on Russian sites are that Zhenya is leaving Eteri.

Rumors, you say? Then it's time for me to wake up from winter hibernation and translate some recent interview with Eteri and her little devils.

Eteri Tutberidze's interview with Channel One

At 3:52:
"11 years together, and you will keep together.
"Yes."
"Without any doubt?"
"Absolutely."

Who would spread such rumors after this?

P.S. It took me a little bit more time than I expected, I didn't notice the new comments.
 
So it was just Eteri dismissing the rumors? Zhenya hasn’t dismissed them yet publicly? I would not be surprised if she is considering leaving Eteri. She put all her trust in her, did exactly what she said for years with the one goal of getting Olympic gold. And her inexperienced teammate beat out the two time world champion. She has to be questioning her coach right now. And I’d assume her mother might be questioning it as well.

If Eteri knows this than it’s possible she is attempting to get out ahead of the rumors and show her support of Zhenya. But also make it more difficult to switch and find new coaches. If there was ever a time to question eteri’s methods and her judgment it’s now. Not that that means she is but I see these rumors as plausible until Zhenya goes on record.

Lmao that's a hilarious comparison (and a pretty accurate one). So we can say that the Olympics showdown between Evgenia and Alina was the Civil War of figure skating? Iron Man x Cap :laugh2:
 
How tough Evgenia is!!! And what mental strength she has !!!
I cannot imagine how difficult it was for her, being injured and couldn't even do the step seq only with 1-2 months before the Olympics.
And still she skated perfectly there!!
 
watching the documentary made me think that IOC should increase maximum spot for top country for olympics. 3 spots in not enough for the depth of pool of talent in Russia for Beijing 2022.

"Why would they leave".why "they"?
what happens Alina?
We talk about only Zhenya.
Why Zhenya should stay with Eteri?
she does not need Zhenya,Eteri dont f**king care about Zhenya,She has Alina,Sasha,Alena...
 
She will leave. It is my last forecast left on off-season which hasn't happened, but it happens. This season (and last) a continuous chain of trainer's mistakes concerning Zhenya.
 
It's mind-boggling to me how people don't see the genuine love Evgenia and Eteri have for each other, I knew this already but after watching that doc it's even more obvious. Look at the sheer adoration on Evgenia's face while looking at Eteri in that last minute of the doc, it would take something world shattering for her to leave Eteri.

I find the "Eteri is a heartless monster who abuses her students" narrative so immature, this is a professional sport, the stakes are high for everyone. Eteri is harsh and strict because she knows her student's potentials and she wants to see them get to that level, it's the very reason why for example she took Alina back, she believed in her. Yelling at students doesn't mean she hates them or is an abuser. It's clear to me she cares about all of them, not only Evgenia.

Anyways, loved the doc and I'm grateful to everyone who made it happen/allowed it to happen! Would love it even more if someone could translate it for us :') this has cemented my admiration for Evgenia even more, that scene of Alina and the others dancing and her just watching them had me thinking about just how cruel that must have been for her, watching her biggest opponent training and getting better while having to deal with what was probably the biggest trial of her career/maybe her life...man that's some intense stuff, her mind truly is something else!
 
Zhenya and Eteri have both stated MULTIPLE times that they want to keep working together. Why are people choosing to believe rumors instead of the direct source I’ll never understand
 
I think this rumor is based on fact that admins of Eteri's vkontakte-group have recently deleted some photos and videos of Zhenya, don't post any news about her after April,25 and they also banned a couple of users who asked questions about Zhenya.
I have no idea why they do it, my guess is they are just very weird people. I don't believe Evgenia will leave Eteri.

In addition to that, maybe also because Zagitova is already back to training whereas Zhenya is still on holiday.

LOL
I read some complaints about the same thing from Alina's fans. As some of them being banned in this VK group.. "with no reason" as they claim.....
i think.... this group just don't tolerate any kind of fight between fans or any skaters comparison.
They ban this kind of users who afterward are crying and thinks that "there was no reason for it".
