    Knowing about the game doesn't make it any easier to guess the winner. Going into this both players were on top form so I'd have said take a punt but it's looking less and less like Murray will do anything <ok>

    I would say Murray to win set 3.

    Needs to break Federer's serve IMO, and unfortunately that doesn't seem likely at the moment.

    Murray looked ****ing average. So many slack shots. For all the medias rimming of federer, it's Murray that's lost this.

    Not for me, it looked like Federer was on top form, some of the shots he was making were excellent. Frankly I think Fed has looked brilliant all tournament, Djokovic's final to lose perhaps but I still think Fed will win.

    I didn't see all the match but what I did see, Murray looked to be throwing everything at it, Federer just had too much for him.

    Sorry you lost your bet Lucaas.

    Feds_3371853a.jpg Na, Federer was top class, both players stats were good enough to win a match on normal day but Federer is at his grass court best at the moment...

    I watched the tennis and cricket at same time.

    Djokovic was average for him and it was too easy.

    Federer was imperious. Just fantastic in every way.

    No ****ing way. Murray played excellent tennis... Federer just owned him because he was in imperious form

    If Fed plays the same on Sunday as today and Novak plays like he did against Gasquet and Anderson, Fed will be Wimbledon Champion, it's that simple

    Djokovic will know this and try to do everything possible to fix the mental and shotmaking problems he's had in time for the final, but it's not like there's a switch you can pull or a button you can press to make it work, tennis players only wish this were the case... there's no other game where form and fortune can swing so quickly on a player as in tennis

    Similarly Fed will just be hoping he can keep playing the same way and this form doesn't go away from him so he can just come out at his highest level and blow Novak away. Fed will want to do him in 3/4 because the longer the match goes on the more fitness will be an issue and Novak is the fittest around pretty much
