He went out in the first round at Queens which was pretty shite and his behaviour in the French Open was very slightly questionable. However that said be very fair to Andy Murray is an awesome Tennis player and seems to be naturally gifted. He doesn't deserve the stick he gets. He is just unfortunate to have to share the stage with three utterly awesome players. People forget how ridiculously good Novak, Federer and Nadal are. It's very hard to win a Grand Slam and these guys just rattle them off. *** Asleep on the radiator Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 25-06-2012 10:42 AM Latex Zebra Registered: Feb 2003 Posts: 8955 - Threads: 217 Location: London 2012 Honourable Mention DJ Winner Flounce Joint Winner Meltdown Winner The Dark Side Quote: Macavity wrote on 25-06-2012 10:42 AM He went out in the first round at Queens which was pretty shite and his behaviour in the French Open was very slightly questionable.

It's very hard to win a Grand Slam and these guys just rattle them off. Novak wasn't though, he started shit and then suddenly came back amazing. Murray could do with learning that lesson. I do agree he is unlucky to be surrounded by three talents like that but he would have always had one or two big players to struggle against no matter what era he played in. I'd like to see him win this or another Grand Slam. I think he deserves it. I think it is fair to say that everyone on the Internet is annoying.

Novak on the other hand wasn't so overcame the mental barrier. *** Asleep on the radiator Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 25-06-2012 10:46 AM Quin. actively apathetic.

I expect him to win something this year. “Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.” ― Albert Camus Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 25-06-2012 10:48 AM ceekay venomous fairy Registered: Feb 2010 Posts: 23043 - Threads: 804 Location: In a wide open space Murray, like the English football team, can be exceptional on a good day, but is overrated and will never be the best in the world. Which is a pity as I would quite like to see him win Wimbledon. Right now however Djokovic and Nadal are in blazing form so this won't be his year, bar a massive shocker from them.

He just isn't capable of beating more than one of them and since he is going to have to face 2 he won't win. However I think he is struggling so can see him going out in the 3rd round. There's nothing wrong with you that reincarnation won't cure. Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 25-06-2012 11:07 AM Quin. actively apathetic.
