Wowow so much hate, I guess someone had to sleep alone with his right hand in bed tonight. Let me still address that.
- You talk about meaningful statistics, then drop a random number that on its own says nothing. Sense? Thiem won 5 more return points last week, that's not exactly a ton. Although Kohl did have a better ace/df ratio so Thiem returned somewhat better, that is true. Still, Kohli had I think 3bp to extend the match when Thiem served for it so it was as tight as you can get.
- Kohl played 2:14 against Karlovic, which means he was standing and waiting to pick a side for half of the time. Another meaningless stat. Yes, Kohl is also playing his 11th straight day but it's his 39th match of the season and Thiem's 59th. I was referring more to mental fatigue than physical, clearly Thiem is super fit and happy to put in a lot of matches at this point of his career and picking a spot where a player is fatigued is a mug's game. Last week he saved bp vs Youzhny late and won, saved mp vs Fed and won and saved bp late vs Kohl and won. Before that he barely edged the second set vs Goffin where he got outplayed pretty badly. He's played a lot of tight matches recently that are bound to take their toll and I think his concentration in the following weeks might not be as super sharp. Plus I still consider grass his weakest surface.
- Not sure if you're serious with this or just trolling in a poor way. First you quote some ****ty Bet365 line for the win, then I guess you got the line from your local dealer for the set hc? Pinnacle gives 1,38 for +1,5 sets on Kohl. Real numbers please if this is supposed to be a discussion.
- Fair enough, I think odds were wrong last time around as well although this is clearly aftertiming now. I think they are still a bit too high on Kohli and I think he's worthy playing till 1,9. I gave a ton of reasons why I think that's the case.
- I'm happy if I rub you the wrong way cause this means you engage, when I checked you just threw in a bunch of unmotivated lines without any explanation that are completely useless for the average user. Let me check your tips according to your own standards: Real reason? No. Backed up by facts? No. Enlightening? No. In three posts I added more than you did. I'll be happy to post a link to my Bloga if someone is interested in records, however my posts are meant to get users thinking and doing their own research, if someone just blindly follows something without having put in his own thinking then he's not gonna get far either way.
Happy you found a funny gif, now please go back to having a real discussion or let the other do the talking
