But you are reminding me on myself in 2006-2007 time when I was confidently deluded expecting Fed vs Nadal clay matches . Today always laughing at myself how silly I was, you'll feel the same in 5-6 years time if you'll remember those silly times
I am very worried about this match, I'm not gonna lie. Would have preferred Djokovic here. But still, I'm always optimistic about Roger, and fortunately he very often proves me right. If you think clowns like Certinfy who enjoy gloating about my wrong predictions will make me stop, think again. Being wrong about a prediction is absolutely the last thing I would ever be ashamed about. There are some other fans (ones of Federer included) who doubt him every time like you, and I personally just don't see the point. How many times do you think I've seen LinkMage or any other douche say crap like "Oh here is another BP for Fed to waste? Pathetic.
The courts are actually in favor of Roger. If he can raise his game agains he has a chance. He is already serving better. Now he just needs to make less UE's off the ground.
Fed would stand better chance if he had to face Nole. Most of post peak jesus delivering appearances were against Nole, on the other side against Murray he played some worst matches
Well, he's played some real stinkers against Nole as well. In fact quite a few at the AO, and most recently at the FO this year where he was manhandled with ease. Now it's arguable if Murray employs some of Nadal's strategy more often than Nole, and whether that tendency to employ them, troubles Federer more than Nole's approach of playing all out aggressive tennis. Thanks for reminding me of how much Nadal has owned Federer over the years just by playing more patient and smarter tennis!
As devastating as it would be, I think Andrew Murray takes this. Let's all hope not. But Roger needs to show me something I haven't seen these last couple months.
If you are realistic, you know - the most probable scenario is Andy in 2. Though noone ever beated GOAT at WTF in straights, he always either won or pushed opponent to the limits. He won`t go as much to the net tomorrow as he did today, but another problem - Andy will return all his 1st serves using simple block deep. Still hope it will be Rogie to rise in the final. I`m sure that if he goes past Murray he will win the trophy.

Simon is a pusher, Murray is boring, or at I think so, others like him and that's just fine, :angel: but he is not a pusher, even if he sometimes plays too defensively when he shouldn't. Murray in 3 long, defensive sets. Roger will bring the entertainment, but Murray's defense will eventually prevail with Roger in is his current form. I hope I am wrong though.
Murray will win, it will be close but either Murray in 3 or very close 2 sets. Roger is making to many errors and his form really isn´t so good. I mean Murray is just to solid guy from baseline with supreme deffense skills, you can´t make stupid erros, Roger sometimes looked out there like he is playing baseball with some of his OUTS. Murray knows how to play vs Roger at best of 3. Roger serving well is not key here, it is neccesary for Roger to even have a chance, but Murray is guy who will give you back many 1st serves and really from the ground Roger is not looking good. So Murray 7-5,6-4 is my pick.
Bingo. Fed ran out of fuel after Cincy. He got beat by Berdych easily, and then he got beat by Del Po in his home town. His Olympics final was shit. Murray is no longer slightly afraid of Roger. This is going to be a beat down, 6-2, 6-4, or even worse
With the way Fed has been playing, I have to say Murray in 2. But Murray himself hasn't exactly been sharp in his 3 matches so far. Federer also playing consecutive days while Murray has rested, but you can still never count him out. I know he wasn't 100% focused today, but he was so, so bad.
