    Poor Andy :(

    For some reason, I cannot stand that vile little Spaniard. Maybe it's the hair, maybe it's the face. But I loathe him.

    Rant over!

    I could weep! I'm not even a sports fan much less tennis but you can't help hurting for Andy. He tries so hard and it always eludes him at the last moment. So cruel.

    :) Yes Daisees Andy played out of his skin,but I can't see him ever winning a grad Slam while Raffa is still around.

    Aaron......Raffa is a lovely boy :thumb: :wink:

    Andy was just outplayed, wasn't he? No shame in being beaten by the best. Aaron, one of the commentators said Raffa is a bit of a heart-throb with a large female following!

    He has a large gay following as well but that doesn't mean I have to like him!

    I just look at it this way, who would you expect to be the one that gets all fired up and agressive, a Scot or a Spaniard.
    I've never seen either Nadal or Federa get them selves in quite such a wound up state as Murray.
    His aggression when he wins a point is so overdone its almost unbelivable, and you can see where he gets the mouth thats always wide open from, just look at his Mum.:D

    Murray looks rather like his Mum, doesn't he? They both look as though they got their heads shut in the door jamb at a formative stage of their development. Do you think he is he that aggressive for a top sportsman? They have to want to win, after all. Murray is a positive pudding compared with John McEnroe at the height of his career. Waiting for Mac to throw a complete and utter strop with the umpire was part of the fun of watching: 'You're the pits, man!'.

    Yeah but Mac was fun, Murray is just aggression.

    You need aggression perhaps to be top, but if you cant do the job its wasted.

    Cool and calm, but able to do the job is the best.
    I cant think of any Wimbledon Champ that ever showed the same amout of aggression as Murray.

    Remember Bjorn Borg, he just got on with the job.
