Man, you can't have an objective conversation when it's about Monfils, so IMO you should shut the fuck up. I do respect him as I respect all players besides Nadal, and kudos for coming back, but I don't like his playing style and his clown-like behavior. That rally was all about massive pushing until the last couple of (Seppi's) shots, and that's just the fact, whether you liked it or not.

Seppi had his results for the very fact that he is passive and very 'tidy/neat' in his game style which is poison for players like Verdasco and Paire. As for the two sets against Djokovic, I think everyone in here agrees on the fact that DJ never looked in trouble and went down mainly beacuse he was missing a lot of shots. Other slams he went out R1 to Gasquet in four sets, R1 Istomin 5 sets (he could have won) and R1 to Robredo in straights sets (...). Not so much impressive if u ask me.
As for Monfils we are saying the same thing, he should have ballbashed since he was quite tired. otherwise running 10km in every point doesn't help at all.

Re: Metz SF : Seppi def. Monfils 3-6 6-1 6-4
The thing is, its not like Monfils cant hit amazing winners, thats the clownish part about it. Kudos for a nice comeback, but hard to feel for the guy when he's trying his best to get injured again.

Too bad, but very succesful comeback nonetheless.
He was so close as well in the final game, just was unlucky.

Monfils was competing well in the 3rd but Seppi was able to serve it out and makes his 3rd final of the year.
Brilliant rally at 30-40 in the final game.

There was two of them one at 30-40 and 40-A, 36 and 34 shots respectively if i remember right.
But come on i don't want to watch this in indoor tournaments.

You could say Seppi was a passive player a couple of years ago, but I would say that's one aspect of his game which he has improved a lot and one of the reasons why he started to get better results. His serve overall improved a lot (gets a lot of free points with 1st, 2nd is not as vulnerable) and he's actually going for winners a lot more than before. Replace passive for patient and you've got a much more accurate description of how he plays, he's not going to hit through players and overpower them consistently but, instead, he's pretty good at constructing points and flattening his shots at right times.

Re: Metz SF : Seppi def. Monfils 3-6 6-1 6-4
Seppi for years was TOP-30 material, but it seems that only this season everything finally is working for him. Great result for guy who 15 monthes ago was one of the best players without a title.
Still great tournament for Monfils, noone could expect more from him a week ago. If only he stays healthy he will be TOP-10 easily once again if now players like Monaco  can do it.

Re: Metz SF : Seppi def. Monfils 3-6 6-1 6-4
Good run by Gael
Still I feel he should have won. Seppi is a solid player, but Monfils is more talented. He just has to avoid pushing and maximize his talent. Defensive rallying will not get him anywhere.
