Federer interview - Credit Suisse

[sureshs]

My boy hit with Fed today in Dubai. Said it was fun. Said Fed is healthy and hungry.

He won't be able to win against the top players of today

 

[Sentinel]

LMAO. Nice one !

So Federer is not one of the top players of today but still reached the coveted WTF even reaching the semifinal.

I'll write that down!

Fed will say he is healthy until he loses then his back will start playing up again.

 

[Alchemist]

It's always good to be in competition rather than tanking 7 months
to protect mental edge/stupid H2H.

 

[clayqueen]

You're very naive if you think Ralph's 6 month break was due to an "injury".

You must be naïve if you believe that Roger had mono and still carried on playing never missing a match.

Roger is the King of excuses. He can always fall back on his back........excuse the pun.

A past prime player talking about his injury/illnesses is 'excuse'.
A perfectly fit and young player bringing up injury year after year after year throughout his career for a decade is ??? Let me guess ...lying ?

 

[MachiA.]

Since a year Fed is only talking about his back.

Nadal could talk his whole career about his chronic knee. He does not.

Sampras could have talked his whole career about his Anemia. He did not.
When he talked about his vomit it was because everybody could see it anyway on the court.

Blah blah blah.

I do so miss the days when using a computer corresponded with education and intelligence.

Roger didn't say that you dodo...Learn to read.

LMAO! A past his prime player who has played 1100+ matches compared to a player in his prime who has played 800 or so matches... :lol:

So Mirka had his share of eggs and bacon again !
No wonder Fred's performance has gone down since marriage.

Funny how Federer had a prime that only lasted three years but somehow Nadal's prime has lasted for ten years and is still going strong.

Stop lying...Show me one poster that said his prime was three years...Federer's peak was three years...His prime was from 2004 to 2009.

So you tell me what was Nadal's prime? Because I get different answers from his fans.

A player ranked #6 is not a top player.

Federer's peak was 4 years from 2004-2007. Prime probably from 2003-2010 (beginning). That's pretty much 8 years. So why do Nadal fans make up lies about what Fed fans say?

 

[kOaMaster]

A player ranked #6 is not a top player.

must be an awesome year for you since nadal two slams AND the real one.

 

[Deuirej]

Dollars, exactly. Never seen such a greedy player before. Maybe his wife, who knows.

KR

Pretty sure he played those clay tournies for points and to get matches with the bigger frame...

 

[MachiA.]

He asked for DOUBLING his signing bonuses for swiss tournaments.

A true patriot.

I bet Fed thinks he's still in his prime.

 

[Goosehead]

"I carry the vomit in my pocket"...wow, didn't remember that one from Pete....or was that Eminem?

"I kind of carry the vomit in my pocket..i explode it"

carrying puke in his pocket is bad enough but why try to make it explode ?. :twisted:

 

[sunof tennis]

A player ranked #6 is not a top player.

So a player ranked in the top ten of all the pros in the world is not a "top player"? What a crazy definition of "top player" you have.

 

[Egoista]

Feds the man at least honest

 

[cjs]

The interview reeks of post-hoc excuses. Its the stench of "mono" all over again.

If you are injured, then rest, e.g. Murray, Nadal.

 

[TMF]

^
Posters who are amused of Roger's mono, I like to see how they feel when they catch mono themselves and other people entertain their suffering.

I've had it. That's why I know its a lame excuse for an entire year of poor form.

 

[TheF1Bob]

I honestly don't see Fed winning a grand slam ever again.

 

[Backspin1183]

Oh c'mon Fed! stop blaming your injuries for your failures. At least be original, man.

 

[Egoista]

lets see if nadal wins a GS at feds age let alone play

 

[Backspin1183]

lets see if nadal wins a GS at feds age let alone play

Let's hope he does.

 

[Federer20042006]

When Federer takes at least 6 months off with injury, then we are talking. He dined out on his 'mono' for years but never missed a match.

Excuses, or what?

When Federer takes at least 6 months off with an injury, we'll know he's playing mind games like your boy.

Same.

you might not see it happening
Doesn't mean it won't

Some Fed fans are just so entertaining...

not a compliment by the way.
