Roger Federer

[Sorin Blaj]

Inseamna ca Nadal isi va mari diferenta in meciurile directe, iar Federer va avea ocazia sa fie si el numarul doi.

[vassy]

Federer a fost deja numarul 2 vreo 2 luni prin 2003 asa ca nu cred ca este atat de entuziasmat sa testeze si pozitia asta, desi nu mai e mult pana sa ajunga acolo

[praf_de_stele]

orice ar face nadal, cel putin in viziunea mea, nu`l va putea egala vreodata pe roger...chiar daca castiga in continuare, chiar daca il va egala la turnee castigate, chiar daca ii va lua locul in clasament, nadal nu va putea fi ce a fost federer...folosesc "ce a fost" pt ca e clar ca elvetianul a scazut mult fata de anii lui de glorie...poate ca i se intampla ceva, nu stiu care`i treaba, dar eu sper ca`si va reveni, poate nu la nivelul cu care ne`a obisnuit, macar aproape, incat sa mai poata castiga gs`uri si turnee importante...
acum observ ca toti il lauda pe nadal ca e regele sau mai stiu eu ce..adevarul e ca au de ce sa`l laude, nu zic nu, dar se pare ca pe federer l`au cam lasat in umbra...momentan, incepe sa se uite ce a fost elvetianul(in cazul in care nu va mai putea reveni la nivelul lui obisnuit)...acum nadal e in rolul principal, iar federer e doar un jucator ca oricare altul...am vazut fel de fel de stiri prin ziare sau pe net in care nadal este marele erou, este laudat cum nu se poate mai bine, iar federer parca nici n`ar fi atat de important...stirile astea au aparut mai ales dupa ce nadal a castigat wimbledonul...acum federer nu mai e maestrul, nu mai e extraterestrul, nu mai e fedexpress, nu mai e masinaria de tenis(etc), acum e doar un jucator de tenis...
cu toate astea, pt mine el ramane un idol si cel mai bun, atat prin caracter, eleganta, talent, inteligenta, cat si prin tenisul de inalta clasa pe care l`a aratat pana acum...pt mine federer=tenis

[vassy]

Ramane de vazut, momentan si eu sunt de parerea ca e de neinlocuit, Federer>=tenis

[Sorin Blaj]

Toti sunt de inlocuit, inclusiv Federer. Intotdeauna vine unul mai bun care iti ia locul. Recordurile sunt facute ca sa fie batute, mai devreme sau mai tarziu.

[vassy]

nu e vorba doar ca are recorduri, dar daca nu il admiri e mai greu sa intelegi

[Sorin Blaj]

Momentan nu are atat de multe recorduri.

[Primus Hawaii]

Federer a intrat în ultima fază a carierei. După 4 ani de dominaţie aproape nemaivăzută în era Open. Cum va arăta oare sfârşitul? Un final abrupt, gen Bjorn Borg? Unul lin ca al lui Sampras? Sau poate va găsi, ca Agassi, maturitatea necesară câştigării unui Roland Garros?

Ultima varianta pare cea mai buna.

[sp00q]

Intre el si Nadal nu exista comparatie pentru mine .

Nadal îl respectă pe Federer, chiar dacă se luptă de atâţia ani să îi ia locul. Chiar acum, când e evident că va reuşi, are modestia de a nu se considera inca no. 1: "I feel I am in semifinal of Toronto. Here is very good tournament, no? I feel I want to play very good match tomorrow for have chance for win another title here in Canada, no? So that's my goal right now. The ranking says I'm the No. 2, so I feel the No. 2" a spus Nadal înainte de meciul cu Murray.

[adi_sampon]

sp00z nu am spus ca nu exista fair-play intre cei 2 ,este ceva normal intre oricare sportivi ,mai ales intre cei mai buni la tenis . Pnentru mine nu exista comparatie intre Nadal si Federer ,il respect pe Nadal joaca bine dar pe mine nu ma prea incanta. Toti cei pe care ii cunosc il adora pe Nadal pentur ca are muschi si vine cu niste pantaloni care ii sunt stramti pe fund si toti : 'Vai Nadal ,moor cand il vad " . Poate trebuie sa-mi schimb prietenii .Pentru mine Feder va ramane o statuie pentur ca eu am vazut tenis cand juca el ,practic am copilarit uitandu-ma la Federer .Imi place Feder si imi va placea Federer

tu iti alegi prietenii in functie de preferintele in sport?(sau ma rog, motivele ce au dus la respectivele preferinte) si te referi la prieteni sau prietene? daca e prima varianta atunci sa ai grija

eu unul nu il ador pe nadal, doar il consider un jucator exceptional, cu un joc superb. la fel si in cazul lui federer, numai ca acesta imi este profund antipatic.

asta este....regele a murit, traiasca regele, nu-i asa?

[Optimistul]

nu e vorba doar ca are recorduri, dar daca nu il admiri e mai greu sa intelegi

Exact, tehnica lui de lovire a schimbat pt. totdeauna istoria tenisului - nimeni n-a reusit vreodata sa aduca atatea elemente noi .
indiferent de rezultatele sale viitoare ,pt. specialisti Federer e unic ,pt. amatori doar un jucator care va disparea ca si ceilalti de pe locul 1 .

[printulmiskin]

Federer nu cred ca a revolutionat tenisul prin aducerea vreunui element tehnic nou..A adus tehnica de lovire a mingiei aproape de perfectiune ,si a reusit asta datorita calitatilor fizice si mentale iesite din comun:echilibru perfect,miscare eficienta pe teren,timing perfect,simt tactic genial,eleganta de dansator,mental de killer..

[vassy]

90% in urmatoarele saptamani Nadal va trece pe locul 1, lucru care nu prea ma intereseaza, ceea ce vreau este ca Federer sa isi revina la jocul sau normal, de "extraterestru", daca acest lucru se va intampla nu va avea probleme sa revina pe prima pozitie. Federer nu e terminat, cum il declara unii, si cand joaca destul de prost e totusi locul 2 in lume.

[Cristi]

Decaderea lui Federer e un fenomen mai complex. Si el joaca mai prost si ceilalti jucatori din top 10 sunt mai buni (in special Nadal, dar si altii pot sa ii puna probleme acum, de exemplu Djokovic).

Eu as aduce in discutie un amanunt care zic eu ca "atarna" destul de greu: fratilor, voi nu vedeti ca Federer e burtos ??? O fi de vina varsta sau vacile elvetiene (i-o place prea mult Mi?ka), nu stiu. Cert e ca de la o vreme a luat proportii. La inceput am zis ca mi s-a parut, apoi am urmarit fenomenul si verdictul e clar: burta. Dovada este greutatea data de atptennis: 88 de kilograme la 1.85!!! Tin minte ca acum cativa ani avea in jur de 80 kg, ceea ce se si explica pt ca e un tip relativ filiform, fara prea multa masa musculara. 88 de kilograme este enorm pentru constitutia lui.

Oricare ar fi motivul, asta denota delasare, suficienta, numiti-o cum vreti. Ma face sa pun la indoiala cheful lui de tenis. Sa stii ca esti obligat sa joci pana la 30 de ani, ai chef sau nu, din cauza sponsorilor, nu cred ca ajuta. Daca nu reuseste sa-si recapete placerea de a juca tenis (cata placere o fi avut) risca sa aiba probleme si mai mari.

[vassy]

De pe la mijlocul lui 2007 a inceput sa prinda greutate... Probabil sa para Mirka mai slaba

[Sorin Blaj]

Cele mai multe turnee de MS.
Cei mai multi ani numarul 1.

Nu prea inteleg cei de ras.Federer=talent Nadal=muncitor Pentru a-l compara pe Federer cu Nadal trebuie ca Nadal cel putin sa-i egaleze performantele iar asta nu se va intampla niciodata.

Niciodata sa nu spui niciodata.
