This era is not same as Fed's time. Djokovic look like slipping up more than Fed in slams. Back then is mostly straight sets and too easy for the body.
Unless Djokovic wins the next five or six in a row, you feel Murray as next in line is bound to snatch at least one. Probably at Wimbledon where he enjoys home support.
Something some people don't seem to understand~ everybody says djockovic is old and is going to decline so Murray will get his chance. BUT MURRAY IS OLDER THAN HIM!!! He is going to decline at the same time if not faster than Djokovic. So my vote is for Murray to stay on 2
He can win more because he's world no.2 and performing consistently right now. Also, at the moment it doesn't look like the competition is getting any better from other serious contenders, only weaker. So I would say that another slam is quite likely the way things are going. A lot really depends on Djokovic but I think Murray is going to get to close more often than the other players, which gives him a strong chance.
I can't see him winning another slam unless he someone manages to get Lendl back. The main reason he won those slams was Lendl's ability to get him playing above himself. For that year from Wimbledon 2012 to Wimbledon 2013, Murray was like a new player that we'd never seen before and will probably never see again. He'll need something to fall for him like a Berydch or Tsonga in the Final, and that just doesn't happen to Murray. He'll play Djokovic in every Final he reaches then the one slam he has a shock early defeat, Djokovic will lose the next round and Simon will win the slam.
Unless Djokovic injured himself or lost before the final murray will have to stay on 2 slams until he retires, and of course there is no reason to suggest murray will make the final in every slam anyway.
Might win one more, but it seems he can't go the extra mile anymore. Maximum 4 slams and that's being generous. Sad, because he's capable of more.
