2005 Fed doesn't compare to 2011 Djoker

[AM95]

It really is pretty sick what Novak did this year, no one ever expected this kind of year from him. But like Rafa said "what you did this year is impossible to repeat no?" Im ready for next year.

agreed. djokovic will give up the #1 ranking before april if he doesn't win the AO. his entire year is riding on that tournament.

Even the WTF final was best of 5 back then and Nole hasnt yet won that either.

He won it in 2008 in Shanghai. Beat Davydenko in the final.

Which should favor Fed.... More sets to win means upsets are fewer, hence he should have more Masters series titles... S:|

whatever dude
your 2011 GOAT season Djoker plays at a level lower than Fed's 2011 "declining" level, lets not even talk about 2005 or even 2006
all tennis fans know it
even djoker knows it
this 2011 season is a joke

Never ending thread: surface homogenization, low level of top 30, etc. , etc.

Djoke's 2011 year is probably>than any of Feds individual years.
Fed's resume is much much more impressive though and Djoke in my opinion won't be able to repeat this years performance to the point that he is comparable to Feds prime time

This pretty much sums it up.

What about 2006 Fed?

Unless Djokovic wins the WTF and 1 of the remaining masters + loses no more than twice this year it's Fed 2006 > Djokovic 2011

this year.......

Oops, my mistake. Sorry!

 

[Magnetite]

Meh .. Fed's awesome but Djoker's season is the best ever right now. Djoker hasn't had nearly as good a career as Fed however. I don't think he will unless he continues his rampage for at least a couple of years.

Unless Djokovic wins the WTF and 1 of the remaining masters + loses no more than twice this year it's Fed 2006 > Djokovic 2011

He's already lost more than twice this year (Federer, Murray and Del Potro) and why would he need to win one more Masters? He already holds the record for Masters won in a single season!

but nothing compares

nothing compares

Because 3 slams and a slam final > 3 slams and a semi
Because undefeated WTF champion > everything else if Djokovic doesn't win or even gets beaten beaten in RR stage and wins the whole thing
Because 92-5 > whatever Djokovic win-loss ratio if he loses more than once (since it's technically impossible for Djokovic to win 92 matches this year, he needs less losses, then)
Because 12 titles > Djokovic if he doesn't win WTF + 1 more Masters which I mentioned earlier

As I said WTF is a must win for Djokovic if he wants to have a shot at 2006 Federer. An additional title would do him good too.

I concur..

Wrong Year

You are comparing the wrong year. Try Federer's 2006.

All of the Grand Slam finals - won 3 - Federer over Djokovic by a tad

Won WTF - Djokovic at best draws level
