Who cares about Eteri´s feeling in Zhenya´s fanfest?
Because they worked together for 11 years! It was more than just a coach student relationship. But its over now.

In the end what a ride! Yatagarasu and I got often attacked on this journey but i think it was worth it.
Now i wish her all the best in Canada. I think it will be hard and in the first or two competitions she might have problems but this girl wants olympic gold 2022!
Come on Zhenya, we all know you are a fighter.
Guys, this is not official. I have been thinking about this comp ever since I became a fs fan but in my eyes it's just too good to be true and I don't want to get all excited for nothing...Russia is scary af. You never know what they're capable of. These speculations will be the end of me untill official news come out
So until you stop dragging other skaters into this thread and insulting them I wouldn't go around telling other people what to post here.
Did I? with the 15 yo girl i mentioned no name. Nobody knows which 15 yo girl will start for eteri in the olympic season. I agree the word "robot" was wrong. To my defense, i was emotional after the coach change news broke. Can you forgive me?![]()
I am shocked for lack of a better word. Eteri and Zhenya seemed very close, but regardless off it, I hope they split in good terms
I trust Zhenya and she knows what's best for her and what she needs to be at the top. Whether she goes to Orser (is this confirmed?) Or stays in Russia I wish her nothing but the absolute best! Good luck on this new adventure Zhenya!
She broke her own world record with her SP twice. It was a world record setting program twice over. That should be sufficient for a gold, and she matched Alina's FS score even though her program was much easier than Alina's. Eteri did not shortchange her with her programs and hamstring her in any way as far the programs were concerned. She might not have done her any favors letting her skate at NHK, but she didn't screw her in the Olympics, not when Clinical Death set two records and a modestly-difficult Anna Karenina matched Alina's technically-extreme Don Quixote. Zhenya lost because the judges gave Alina such a high PCS on Black Swan, not because Eteri gave her inferior programs.
It's basically saying what I've been saying.
In short, that the Fed wanted gold for Russia, so they went for Alina. That they didn't support Zhenya enough.
May be it was already posted hear but I didn't see

Chief director of Sambo-70 Renat Laishev told to TASS info agency that Zhenya stopped cooperation with Eteri Georgievna. "We don't like this situation - he said - but Zhenya is gonna to stay at Sambo-70 but with another coach. We never restrict her in any ways and she has good relation with our school, we tried to influence the situation. I think this is not fully correct situation as Eteri Georgievna gives everything her students need. It's complecated and we have to wait. It would be wrong to force the situation. And we have to pay tribute to Tutberidze, she has great number of reservists".
Tutberidze herself answered TASS that now she is not going to comment her studend's leaving.

These two posts raise points, together with seeing the Japan Doc, make it clear to me that she felt let down at the Olympics.
The footage of the two fed guys at her training exhibition where she can't land a jump and is falling during simple steps, utterly distraught and emotional at the end. I think that was where they decided to bank on Alina, to protect their medal hopes and provide that crucial +5 PCS boost her way.
Medvedeva did enough to win gold - she'd have won every Olympic games with those two programs and instead, the Russian fed propped up her young team mate and cost her gold. My guess is that's what led to this dram unfolding today
yeah, I'm not surprised - there a lot of post here last days, so I missed someThis has already been posted
Realistically, who would she train with at Sambo that would be beneficial to her growth as a skater?![]()
Not sure if you know what Med has gone through to come for this decision. Med has stayed with Eteri for 10 years and it might have taken a toll on her emotionally to leave. Many skaters and coaches endure each other for the Olympics and after the Olympics they're done with each other for good.that's it - no one, and I don't think any other coach can be better than Eteri for Zhenya. I guess it's not about growth, it's about emotions. Being person who declared herself as perfectionist under the best coach she have to be 100% Number One next season as fans waiting it, only injury or coach change can excuse her.
damned, I can speculate a lot of stupid thoughts but I still incredibly surprised with this situation - everything looked very well all this years
In the news they said the coach and zhenya relationship was fine. Maybe it was more of an environment thing. And people were right. Eteri's priorities would naturally shift to her younger studentsNot sure if you know what Med has gone through to come for this decision.
