Rooting for Pouille because of Textreme and the fact that no one seems to want to expose the weaknesses of the old bull for whatever reason.

I fear it will be Nadal in straights, max 4.

I'd love to see Lucas reach his second slam quarterfinal but sadly I just don't think it'll happen at this tournament.

I think Nadal in 4, but I hope Pouille has enough in the tank to make it interesting. I'm not holding my breath, but he is only 21 or 22 right?
Six months younger than Thiem. Pouille is not holding his serve well enough to beat Rafa. I think Pouille will be fresh enough for this match at least for a few sets to show us what he can do against a top player. I'd say he's in over his head in this one, but if Rafa is generous he could steel a set.

Pouille did well to reach the 4th round (his win against Agut was impressive), however I fear he'll only have energy for 2,5 sets. Nadal in 4 sets at most (loses 1st or 2nd set)

Hopefully Davincitrov continues his Renaissance and a certain poaster will have to make the "What happened to Murrayangelo?" thread.
All I see in my head is a tortured man crossing a bridge with a combination of rage and fear in his face...gives me the Munchies every time I think of it!:eek:. Someone was using that look as their avatar as recently as yesterday.

Pouille has come to play but its still 3 sets he needs to win. If he stays at this level, he has a chance. I dont see it happening tho
