Will Ferrer bottle even today?

In a period of modest qulaity of clay courters you get what you get and Devid Ferrer might just be the next in line clay specialist after the mighty Nadull.

But when Ferrer will look back at his professional career what will he see?

He will see a Master less player who could play occasionally at a decently high level but invariably choked when it mattered handling over the match to Nadal. Not a great sight.

Will Ferrer want to get his dignity back and fight his way today? Personally I have just little hopes.

nole, the amazing thing is that these v2ers clearly know their stuff, and yet in every round they have made predictions stating that Nadal would lose, firstly against Berd and now against Ferrer. Are they serious or are they trying to annoy you know who?
What is the hatred of Nadal and his fans all about?

Seriously, I have never seen anything like that before on any forum.

rotlas tennis threads are first class and yet he only can get a one star from me. Why? because he always has a little dig/pop at the same old people, and he amazingly manages to do it every time.

Why?

MCS: bottle and choke aren't bed words. It's the reality of the game, tennis is tough, playing at the top in a tb can be even more tough, Most bottle it, just the very few who don't are able to get all the wins.

Instead of talking about me why don;t you find the counter arguments legend?

I have seen enough of Nadal Djoko and Nadal Federer to see that Nadal is actually the player playing with fear.

He always starts badly cause he knows he has no chance when the opponent is still fresh and has an edge. Nadal himself writes that in his book when mentioning his matches versus Federer.

What kind of mental strengths is he showing every beginning and end of season when he is not slam fit? Being bagelled by old Federer and Murray, losing to Mayer, Dodig and other average players.

With Nadal it;s all about his physique. Even versus weaponless Ferrer, it's Ferrer the aggressor.

Nadal is tenacious, I can see that, he fights till the end cause he knows that's his only weapon, his stamina, and that at the end it will make the difference. But he is full of fear and when he sees the opponent doesn't tire, he is crumbles like a castle of cards.

Have you forgotten teh way he surrendered his last AO after being a break up in teh 5th? Have you forgotten how he collapsed again when serving to stay in the set then in the match at Wimbledon? How his fear were so obvious in that IW and Miami finals?

And more recently how he surrendered a 5/2 in teh 3rd versus ......yes Verdasco!

Nadal is only strong mentally as long as he has petrol in his tank and knows that petrol will make the difference.

Unlike you I talk tennis, I don;t criticise posters unless I have too. That's another thing you coudl learn from me.
