    I'm not going to get too far ahead of myself here, he took the first set at wimbledon in the final and struggled, it was vital to win it though

    Ya * dancer!!! So many chances but crucially he has the set. Murray's mentality kept him in it.....plus the 34,754 unforced errors.

    Novak will step it up no doubt but personally think Nole will struggle the longer this goes on.

    Come on the Muzza!!!!!!.....

    Good stuff. Now I'm off to bed before I get drawn in to a game that's going to finish at 3 tomorrow.

    well done to murray in that first set, i taught he blew it in the tie braker a few times, keeping the pressure on djokovic will be hard but surly this is his best chance..

    One advantage of living where I do time wise, * for anything happening in the UK but great for anything in the US.

    I truly don't understand why Murray isn't just positive all the time. When he gets on the front foot and plays aggressive he wins pretty much all the time, even allowing for his stupid errors.

    Whenever i've seen him win, it's when he's getting on the front foot. Obviously balance is key but Murray just isn't suited to playing defensively, he gets battered by the better players when he does that. He took the 1st set off Federer in Wimbledon by playing aggresive, and then for some reason just stopped playing.

    How do you know how big I am :bbpd:
