Considering the above, combined with the statement that nothing could have been gained from him because of the "inevitability" of the outcome, you actually did say it. You said it in other words and in two separate posts, but the idea is clearly visible, hence the summation that I did and the question whether you object against what I wrote.
Anything else that you object against?
Calling one of the best parts of every Fed season "the garbage part of the season".
Please keep misquoting and purposely misunderstanding what I said.
"Would have happened" expresses certainty, and if Federer was going by that logic, he should have not beaten Nadal ever again after 2014. That continues to be the red ribbon that ties up all your posts: put down the great man whenever possible, and especially in scenarios where it is a speculation.
You analysis of Djokovic's Wimbledon performance is, of course, geared towards that, so it comes as no surprise that substantial objectivity is lacking in it: how else would we view the total lack of mentioning of his extremely clutch level of play where it mattered the most or his virtually flawless TBs with no UEs. Oh, how you forgot while explaining that it was a "weaker" version of Djokovic. Don't worry, your cookie cutter analysis is familiar from before.
So, to sum it up nicely, your opinion is that Federer is better off losing in earlier rounds than reaching later rounds of tournaments, because of his supposed "inferiority". Please correct the parts of this sentence that do not reflect what you just said.
He does that on purpose: as though nothing outside of Majors matters. Everything else is a failure etc etc. The populist view currently peddled by every Federer detractor and his dog: in anticipation that Federer will be surpassed. The defeatist mentality (oh, Djokovic is waiting in the final, Fed is doomed) etc etc. Basically making a parody of a fan. Interesting, what exactly he DOES support as a Federer fan? It is not Federer's game, since if it was, he would be happy that Federer just played a good tournament, which he called "garbage". It is not his belief that Federer can beat his biggest opponents, since he states everywhere he can that he doesn't believe that to be the case. It is not Federer's overall success, since titles, unless Majors are irrelevant. Basically his whole point is to distill his position to right where Fed detractors want the fanbase: supposedly being all about the Majors count and supposedly outside of Federer's control. With such "fans" Federer doesn't need detractors.
I give full credit to Djokovic for every win, including those that he won by the skin of his teeth, but after the imperial performance Federer put in that Wimbledon final at 38 years old to continue with the BS how Federer just doesn't have chances vs Novak is out of this world ugly. Ditto for demeaning Federer's successes. The man is pushing boundaries and he deserves all the admiration in the world for being amazing.
Actually, that is not true. You have quite some garbage popular opinions: the ones popular among the Federer's detractors.
Also, it looks that you are done here with that last comment.
Fed can beat Djoker for sure, in fact, I think his WC actually proves that, and next time they meet, I do think Fed has a real good chance. I mean Fed truly was the better player in that match. Djoker has dropped his level more than Fed over the past year.
Yep, Djoker has not looked unbeatable since AO, where Fed has at times. When Fed is on (yes, less often these days), but when he is on, I think he beats Djoker. Simple as that. In fact, I see Fed playing Djoker with a much more care free and aggressive play next time he plays Djoker.
Yep, as bad as WC19 was, it says Fed not only can beat him, if Fed plays a few more crucial points better, he easily can beat him. Even at AO, as Fed has only one less slam...I have been following Federer during all his career from the get go: one of the defining characteristics of his professional attitude is that the man has a rock solid belief that he can beat ANYONE, if he is playing his best tennis. He is also one of the most resilient and capable competitors that sport has ever seen. I think that any Federer fan has by now realised that. There is no reason to start thinking otherwise after the numerous proofs that that is so. On top of that, he is doing amazing things. Amazing.
Have you watched Djoker play since AO? Where do you see him playing incredible levels? I have seen Fed do it several times. Not saying he WILL beat Djoker, but am saying he definitely has a good shot.

No you Fed devotee, stop cheating readers.
But I do. Less stamina. Less engaged. Less offensive. Not as good defensively. Almost everything looks slightly worse. Has shown in results as well.

I have not seen a dominant Djoker since AO. I have seen a dominant Fed on a couple occasions since that time. Yes, Djoker has maybe had an overall better level, but Fed has reached a higher level since AO.
I see your and @AceSalvo 's view.Djokovic might have more ups and downs, but when he dials his game this year, he is every bit as formidable as his 2016 self. He is par for the course for producing a better year than 2016 too, so I tend to agree with AceSalvo that it is splitting hairs when he had better form and results.
When did we get talking about 2016, I am talking about last year to this year. He finished the season with 5 finals and 3 wins to finish the season last year. Not even an option this year.Djokovic might have more ups and downs, but when he dials his game this year, he is every bit as formidable as his 2016 self.

I have no clue what you are trying to say. All I know is that I am not buying that Djoker is playing at an unreal level, and I think Fed CAN beat him.
Is he playing?
oooooh, I get you now.
You're saying, over the past year,:
Fedr improvements > Djokr's decline
I agree.
If you would simply stop replying to all this nonsense or put these people on ignore, it would mercifully end. None of the rest of us on his sub-forum want to wade through this s--t anyway. This is supposed to be about Roger Federer, not petty-assed fighting with strangers on the 'net. The Nadal and Djokovic news forums aren't plagued by this garbage, lucky for them.
How about this, let's agree Fed is awesome and got to 103 today so yay! Cause I don't even know what I am trying to say at this point.
Sorry, BF. I know.
Eating tons of pizza before Paris?
