But Taufik has improved in his performance after he has departed from PBSI, hasn't he?

IMHO, Taufik is now much more relaxed without PBSI. I would also think that LCW would be more relaxed without BAM.

I believe Taufik would advise LCW to go independent.

I posted this in another thread;

Why players shine?

IMHO, players shine because their coaches/associations make sure that they enjoy their sports (in training and at tournaments).

As soon as players feel that their effort (to perform well) is not appreciated by their fans/coaches/associations, they will find themselves having extra obstacles standing in their way to shine.

Chris-ccc,
You are LCW's #3 fan if not the #1 or #2 fan, for all the things you do for him. Keep it up.

I am a fan of Badminton in general, not just for LCW.

Regarding Mens Singles players, we are always returning to LCW, LD, TH and PG most of the time.

Can't be helped; Because these 4 are still our top MS players.

.

**LD rules!** · 01-31-2011, 09:23 AM

Sort of on topic, but I read a while ago on the Internet (just after OG08) that Peter Gade intended to retire before OG12. Is he still planning on competing in London, or is he retireing before hand ?

LCW will probably remain in the top 2 before OG12, it depends on how many tournaments China enter. And how many WO LD has to give in order to get Chen Long and Chen Jin into the top 4.

LCW played in 3 tournaments in January 2011 and yet he was able to give a good account of himself by reaching the final of the 2011 KO SS. His opponent LD was quite fresh and played only 7 matches in January (2 in Malaysia and 5 in Korea) and thus had a longer rest interval. LCW had to fly to Seoul in the night of 23 January straight after the 2011 MO.
Moreover, LD had 2 Chinese coaches to help him in Korea but LCW did not have MS. Who knows what would have happened if MS was in Korea to guide LCW.

Agree.

LCW has been over-worked.

Also agree that if Misbun Sidek was there, LCW could have won. But it's history now.

I shall be following LCW's (and LD's) matches in his next tournament (the 2011 AE)

The PM's wife and 3rd, the MAS supporters. That would push chris-ccc down to 4th. I forgot about george.

Definitely not pralinescream; after creating a thread to say that LCW is unprofessional.

.

**george@chongwei** · 01-31-2011, 09:02 PM

Mainly because he cares for LCW

... Don't forget about that.

Seriously, we should give LCW recognition for being World No.1 for so long.

BTW, this year (2011), LCW will be trying to become the Malaysian national champion for a 9th consecutive time.

The Malaysian National Championships will be held at the Stadium Negeri (Kuala Terrengannu) from 18-Feb to 21-Feb.
