Verdasco is attacking like a mad man, it's served him good so far.
Big break from Murray now, I still don't see him winning the match though.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Verdascollapse on the way
Looks that way sadly. It will never be said he collapsed though, Murray will have fought a stunning comeback with some big and brave shots. He was magical blah blah blah.
Totally agree. Completely bizarre performance.
ONO is only jealous that Murray has a shot at sharing the champions dance with Lisicki.
Utterly magical break from Murray.
Well if he does make a comeback then he'll deservedly get a lot of praise for it. I don't see what would wrong with that. Any big player would receive praise if they made a comeback, so why should it be different for Murray?
Murray just turned up.
No chance, Djokovic will smash Murray based on this performance, I'll be surprised if Del Potro makes it to his SF match with Djokovic.Oh feck off Verdasco, he's not even trying anymore.
He's been so much better this set though. Much more aggressive and showing that he's the much better player by actually taking control and dominating Verdasco. Hopefully he'll keep this up. It's a good sign that he isn't simply going to collapse though.
I will never figure out the fascination with Andy Murray's missus.
cnut gets a standing ovation.

Yeah, based on this performance. Throughout the rest of the tournament though, Murray hadn't been much worse than Djokovic. He's been fantastic this game though. Every player can have a bad match or two that they have to struggle through. It hardly means he has no chance of beating Djokovic.
Because there's a difference, Verdasco has just lost his head now and let Murray into it, it's not as if Murray has went up a gear and outmatched the in form Verdasco. He's just playing better now because Verdasco is playing shite now. It's strange. They both of them don't seem to be able to play the top of their game against each other, one on form, the other is off.
The problem with praising Murray over a comeback is as always, too much media pressure for Murray. He'll think he's better than he is, fact is, he's made this hard work for himself by serving like a 5 year old on his second serves.
SAF is getting more TV time than Murray's girlfriend
How is Fergie looking?
Is he happy?
Is he happy?
Vidic went to see Djokovic's match
I know who I'd rather see!
Commentators are comparing United's comebacks with murray now.
Verdasco has been much poorer but Murray has undoubtedly played so much better now as well. Part of Verdasco struggling has been down to the fact that he was taking advantage of a tentative, defensive Murray, but that was gone as soon as Murray started playing more aggressive tennis in this set.
The media praise is inevitable anyway. Nothing you can do to stop it and Murray is professional enough to not let it get to his head. His mentality problems stem for himself, not from the media making him think he's better than he is.
Verdasco will bottle it, just like he did against Nadal at the AO 2009.
Yeah just had a look myself, what the feck is all that about?
fecking shit from Murray. Needs to hold this game.
Managed to hold there which will give him some confidence. Brilliant final rally.
I hope Verdasco smashes him.
Verdasco needs to close it in 4, I think there is very little chance of Murray losing the fifth set if it goes there
What a winner!!!
My boy Jerzy in the semi.
I wouldn't back Murray to win a tie break.
Such an ugly cnut, that mother. Ugly fistpump face.
Has anyone shouted 'Come on Tim!' yet?
Scrappy as feck, but he's hanging in there.
Fair play to him, cos he really aint ticking.

This spaniard hits them hard
Oh feck. And these commentators make it worse.
He's Spanish number nine? Is he playing out of his skin then?
He's been in the top 10 before and is a very good player who should probably be better than his ranking, but he still has played very well. Hasn't helped that Murray was so defensive in the first two sets though and really played a style that suited Verdasco perfectly.
