这是万维从哪抄来的报道：

德国乒乓球选手奥恰洛夫和波尔先后在男乒世界杯和德国公开赛上连续击败中国名将，包揽冠亚军。 

德国队主教练、德国乒协体育主管普劳泽说：〝中国队看似马不停蹄地比赛，但却像无头苍蝇，感觉非常不安。〞

普劳泽表示：很多事情在改变，中国队一些重要的基础在丢失，教练和运动员不能完全地投入和发挥就是重要的信号。 

他强调，下半年以来迅勐的上升势头很有可能让奥恰洛夫在积分上完成对男乒的超越，成为世界第一。

YouTube上的采访视频

视频中他提到中国队有麻烦，处在改变的过程，队员不在好的状态。但没具体是什么麻烦。

这是有人的comments，个人觉得说得有道理。当然有人也认为中国对乒乓球的统治时代已经结束，个人不以为然。

It has been quite obvious ML FZD XX was not trying to lose but they were also not motivated to win either, just watch some videos of the WTTC 2017 dusseldorf such as Timo vs Ma Long game, you could see Ma Long Choing or shouting almost every point he won almost like Harimoto, remember how fierce Zhang Jike was when he choed every point, you can see a pattern here, after Liu Guoliang left, they've lost that spirit although they weren't trying to lose either but just didn't seemed important to win anymore. Or they're trying to make a point that Liu Guoliang does make a difference to the mens team
