Mervyn King spending another day at Wimbledon, I see. Has the Bank of England relocated to SW19 or something?
No he doesn't.Congrats to Djokovic, he gets a lot of stick
That's why I've been waiting for reallyNow for the main event - mixed doubles final
Congrats to Djokovic, he gets a lot of stick but I feel most of it is undeserved. He has a very, very bright future.
That's the problem. I said this pre French open as well but Djokovic has really gotten into Nadal's head.Rafa to Mcenroe : "Losing the 4 matches this year affected me more than it should"
Fed is the one who can stop him.Great performance Djokovic, amazing year so far. Hes gonna be hard to stop at the US.
Great player. Nice guy. Shame his box is full of cnuts.
Yeah, how dare they celebrate their boy winning his first wimbledon final so passionately.Congrats Djoko, youre the best in the world but youre entourage are a bunch of bastards.

Djokovic gets a lot of stick now? How
Well he's certainly had a lot of stick throughout his career - much more than most other top tennis players. I assume you're pointing to the fact that it's his entourage that get the stick, but it really isn't/hasn't been just them. It's died down a little since he's really taken off, but I get the impression that a lot of people hear others criticising him and calling him arrogant and take it as gospel, without actually seeing it for themselves. He comes across really well in interviews but I think his passion, ambition and often elaborate celebrations have contributed towards a pretty false image of him.No he doesn't.
No. Its just that RF's game matches up to Djokovic's more than Nadal's does.Federer being the best chance to stop Novak is just being built out of thin year. Just because he is the only one to beat him this year.
Their head to head record is 14-9 in favour of RF. In that too Federer won the first 4 encounters when the Serb was in his late teens. And before the french semi, Novak had won his last 3 matches with Federer.
What a glory hunter. He's a Milan fan!
If Fed had beaten Tsonga I'm sure he would have beaten Djokovic and I think Nadal would have beaten Fed.Federer is a better match up against Djokovic because he is more aggressive than Nadal and has a better serve and a better volley. Nadal beats Federer because of the high balls to the one-handed backhand. All 3 of them have different strengths which makes it interesting. I think if Roger hadn't let Tsonga come back Roger would have beaten Novak and possibly won because I don't think Nadal is as invincible as he used to be. Anyway I'm glad Djokovic won as I don't want Rafa to catch Roger's 16 titles!!
I honestly think Roger would have had a chance this time against Nadal as I don't think Rafa is playing as well as he used to. I don't see Rafa lasting and being a force in the game when he is 29/30 like Roger still is as Rafa's style of play is killing him.If Fed had beaten Tsonga I'm sure he would have beaten Djokovic and I think Nadal would have beaten Fed.
That's why I was supporting Federer in his match vs Tsonga
I agree although Del Potro may have a say there. I also think Roger will be close as always and Nadal will also be there so there will be 4 of them with a good shot at it. I just don't see Murray in the mix as I just don't think he is aggressive enough.Great performance Djokovic, amazing year so far. Hes gonna be hard to stop at the US.
He'll never be better than them but he can win a grand-slam. It's not as if ability wise he's incapable of beating them. Tsonga just beat Federer. Shit happens. If he can sort himself out mentally he has a grand slam in him.There is no way Murray is ever going to win a grand slam if Novak, Nadal and Federer are in the last four. He cannot beat any of them. He is such a hyped up, piece of shit player.
So much bollox.There is no way Murray is ever going to win a grand slam if Novak, Nadal and Federer are in the last four. He cannot beat any of them. He is such a hyped up, piece of shit player.
Very balanced assessment. A lot of the stuff was his own fault, such as issues over his fitness and pulling out of matches. Maybe some of the rest of it was judging him by unfair standards.Well done Djokovic! Great performance, and a deserved victory.
He has had a lot of stick, 'Choke-a-vitch', 'Joke-a-vitch' etc. So whoever brought that up was right - a lot of that was bought on to himself, but also some of it was undeserved.
That's all irrelevant now, because since the Davis Cup win for Serbia, he has been a complete machine. I would have him as favourite for the US, and I think he will win it.
Who said that? His game is better equipped to take him on is what most have said.Sorry Federer game being more suited to Novak than Nadal does not transalte as him beating the Serb when he is such a superlative form. Yes it happened in French but in Australian Novak beat him as well. If anyone saw Djokovic against Tsonga, they won't be saying Federer would have beaten him. Tsonga actually played better in semi than in his match against Federer, Djokovic was just that good to beat him in 4.
Not what you'd expect from the Bias Serb right?Very balanced assessment. A lot of the stuff was his own fault, such as issues over his fitness and pulling out of matches. Maybe some of the rest of it was judging him by unfair standards.
But he's the best player in the world at the mo so there's nothing negative you could really say about his game.
