He already knew he had lost her. As the answer was from Tutberidze Team themselves, they must have been aware of his maneuvers, with full details, by Alina Zagitova herself. It cannot be idle speculation.

“After her short program in the Grand Prix finals, I will miss her at the Russian championship, but I understand how hard it was for her - I too competed in the Russian and Grand Prix championships after the Olympics. And here we have a little girl, she did fail at the Russian championship after the Olympics, but became the World champion later, she really is a star, she's tough, but she is exhausted, she needs a rest."
“So there’s no need to read the tea leaves - whether she'll return or not, if she will return - she will calmly skate then, if she won't - it’s also ok. She worked so hard, she was always on the podium, plus growing up, plus these girls with their quadruple jumps. So we should try to understand her, and I’m on her side. Moreover, she found the strength to admit that she was tired, declare it publicly, which others usually do not do, she rose in my opinion even more, not everyone is capable of it" - said Trankov in his interview to TASS.
Gee jazz you let nothing slip by! You really are fact news based not fake news based.No, when you're a tv commenter, you have to forget about your favourites. Plus, she did an exceptionally crap job of commenting, wailing "I don't want the little one to win!" hysterically after Alina's win, instead of congratulating her on the well deserved victory.
That's absolutely not true.
No one in their right mind cares what this disgusting hypocrite says.
Again, not true at all.
it says the page isn't available. Server overload or removed?
Alinas post wasnt available for me either through the link, so I went to her instagram page and it was there.
well... I'm sad for her ... I think she didn't have a choice except to quit ... probably eteri didn't let her change coach's ( she is the reigning olympic and world champion) and her didn't have the courage to change ( she looks the kind of person that would never go to another coach without the consent of te previous)... her jumps are there .. I don't know if she could learn a 4 or not but if she landed everything her PCS would be high ...
Thank you! I fixed it. I'm going to say this again to try and speak it into existence - Skate the Cleopatra program! It has the perfect pre-hockey vibe! Either that or Survivor. Save Me Voy and Outros for Art on Ice.

Like I said, after Alina's OG win TAT made comments that I DO NOT agree with. But lets not forget she is a sport commentator not a robot, and, like any normal human being she had a favorite, was rooting for her and when she didn't win she was upset. Could she had handled it better? ABSOLUTELY!
Look, time has passed, opinions change and feelings subside.
Again, to my knowledge after all the Olympic season drama passed ( I do not speak russian, so I'm based of interview/comments that have been tranlated) she's been a lot more complementary towards Alina and has said good things about her.
Good things were rare and reluctant, bad things/criticism continued to come in spades. (I speak Russian)
I am glad that someone finally stood up to that bully (it was not only Alina who was under her fire).
She's entitled to have her opinion, which could be told in a way more polite manner. But as a commentator she is not allowed to be so blatantly biased, it's unprofessional.

You might not care about "what that disgusting hypocrite has to say" but a lot of ppl do, she is a decorated Russian coach with many achievements; her job is to comment on FS matters, so she did. There is no need to be disrespectful.
Anyway, with the recent developments, I'm just happy to hear Alina clarify that she is really just taking a break and not retiring. I hope she comes back strong like we all know she can! She skates beautiful and deserves her achievements.

If/when Alina is dethroned as OGM in 2022, my hope is that she will have established herself securely enough that her popularity will maintain its level solely on her own merits. She has enough going for her to sustain a career separate from any of her athletic achievements. Even if that is what initially opened the door, it won't be what keeps it open.
