Hmm, I'm wondering whether KKK/TBH read this thread..so many harsh comments for them...no matter what, they have made Malaysian proud in numerous occassions before..and I believe they have inspired other younger players to be among the best of MD players in the world..give them more chances..giving constructive comments won't kill us.
BOTH Fuzzy & KKK/TBH are being sent to same number of tourneys, Fuzzy more actually - both are the elit pairs. This year, only Fuzzy & KKK/TBH got to go Denmark & France SS. And Fuzzy was 1st Msia MD in the rankings for a while, looks like it's interchanged between these 2. The rest are elit back-up(Gan/Lin, TBS/KCC, Hoon/Ong, Razif/TWK, LKW/CPS) or back-up(should be Goh/Ong, Poh/Chow, Mak/Teo).
No racism here please...This is badminton thread so we should judge the players by their skills and ability.Hehe...
I just watched the semi final of Hong Kong Open and now i am really angry about Koo's and Tan's arrogance I cant believe their facial expressions and their body language. i had the impression koo kien keat didnt want to move... i hope they will change...
i have watched MD sf Hong Kong SS. I think there must be something going on with TBH. He didn't look like he wanted to play. I just noticed usually KKK leave the court first before KKK, but on that day TBH left first. I still think that KKK/TBH more skillfull than fuzzy. They won because kkk/tbh diddnt have desire to play at all.
Your last line is confounding! KKK/TBH didn't have the desire to play at all??? To be fair, Fairuzizuan and Zakry showed themselves to be the better pair. Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong have only themselves to blame for losing. The 'more experienced' pair appeared to be passive all through the match. A passive game doesn't help to win men's doubles matches
yes, u are right.. kkk/tbh should always use the attacking style in their game just like the koreans.. if u compare their style of play with the fuzzy pair, u can see so much difference actually.. take kkk/tbh vs jjs/lyd and fuzzy vs jjs/lyd match as example.. by looking at the score, we should be able to see so much difference from this 2 mas pair already actually. always when kkk/tbh vs the korean pair, they keep defending and defending.. thats why when these 2 pairs play together every time,they doesnt improve much.. if we compare it with fuzzy pair, they like to attack and attack and attack.. even their defense sometimes works very well too
just because they make so much errors in the match, doesnt mean that they are the one who supposed to be blamed.no one is perfect in this world, even the SUPER'DAN'...p/s this is the final stage and vs the mighty korean pair summore, of cure they are a little bit tense i suppose. of course they go out there and fight and fight, not so fast giving up./ thats the attitude supposed to have in every badminton players.. not when trailing so much behind already only want to smash and starting to earn point..
Let me point one thing: IMHO, it's too early to say fuzzy can match up with jjs/lyd since lyd is a very brilliant "learning" player. He always experience difficulties when playing against new faces but once he gets to know the playing style of his opponents, he tends to become very unbeatable. He moves knowing his opponents' moves in advance. That's my observation from watching his matches for the last two years. Today lyd's surely got to know the style of fuzzy and what and how much care he has to put in the next match with them. (I just wanted to mention it's not just the problem between koo/tan and fuzzy.)
well, based on your posting, maybe yesterday match was just a good luck to the koreans and bad luck to the malaysian well, actually malaysia yesterday had leading trhe 3rd set all the way untill the final match point korean snatach it and wins the match.. thats a great luck to korean sides too.. its just lucks not on our malaysian sides. anyway, lets just see whats the final results again if this 2 pairs meet again possibility the ss final in KK.. seems u say that lyd is a 'very brilliant learning player,.. lets just see he learn this match untill where

At the rate of their progress, they will be out of Top10 soon. Hope they can put in more effort and produce some good results. Gambate, KKK/TBH.
