I think it is good to have a performance slump, it make them to do some soul searching. It work for lcw... The key is peaking at the right time, for LD, it's august 2008
TH comes to China NOT to give LD and the other chinesse players reasons to celebrate in front of their own supporters and watch them enjoyin the "party".... a Semi Final slot is most likely at the pocket of TH and he will be happily waiting for LD there....However, I personally doubt that LD will reach the Semi Final...perhaps BAO will defeat LD in the quarter final... Anyhow...Bao or LD does not make any difference at all for TH... TH is ready to make them knee down
This thread is about LinDan or a different Lindan. No need to mention about TH. I'm sure everyone knows TH is the best.. especially for Indra.
No, I think TH is relevant to this thread. I think LYB says this LD is different in the sense that he will whip TH 's ass twice as harder
We can only judge "a different LD" if LD meets LCW in the semi-final. For now, lets hope both of them sail into the Semi... It will be really a exciting match by the time....
LD coming good is really wonderful news. And so, if LCW beats him, LYB and die-hard fans would have to eat humble pies. Bring them on ! LCW is ready !
A different LD? How much can a man change in a relatively short time like just perhaps two SS apart? LCW has changed in his mental approach it does seem and this seems to have reduced his 'negative' stress level and make him more relaxed. It took him some time to resolve his 'emotional' baggage. TH is as cool as ever, but many would know that underneath that "tidak apa" demeanour remains a ferocious tiger ever eager to pounce on any unsuspecting encroacher. But how would LD be different? To his fans and supporters, to the spectators and most importantly, to his foes? Could LD have matured in such a short while?
i think TH'll not hv full concentrate to play in this tournament,as his wife will hv their 1st child soon...
The fact that his wife will give birth to a baby has strongly motivated him to win the SS China open...the prize money is real good.... At present: Simon vs Chen Yu = CY wins CY - Sony = Sony wins Sony vs PG = PG wins PG vs Chen Jin = CJ wins CJ vs Bao = Bao wins Bao vs Bonsaak = Bonsaak wins Bonsaak vs CH = CH wins CH vs LD = LD wins LD vs LCW = LCW wins LCW vs TH = Taufik wins...
FAIR? You call this fair when TH is given "byes" all the way to the Finals? Never happened before. But then Indra is the Referee and nobody can dispute with and eject him!
I think you are wrong (especially as Chen Yu is out ) /Twobeer hmm... A "new" Lin Dan? No back-pain?? More motivated?? or??
