MALAYSIA should win the semis.. IF chong wei can overcome his presure and perform well.. then hafiz can get another point, he is always giving suprise to us.. maybe kuan beng hong can play well too.. or malaysia second doubles will take on.. (i hope so) malaysia BOLEH!! Bawalah piala thomas balik!!
Don't think CTF/LWW can play 1st doubles unless CCM/KKK not playing together. Even with WCH playing 2nd Single, Denmark still will win 2nd single and 1st and 2nd doubles to make it 1 - 3 for Denmark.
Hehehhe.......... I would say it is 50:50 for both team even without WCH. It's depend on players performance, form and even luck. With extreme luck, you could win with walkover
I personally like Beng Hong, he is fast and sharp but need alot more international experiences. Future player ! as usual lately Malaysia and Indonesia players are few years behind Chinese.
I must admit that even if i want my countrymen to win i dont believe in them this time. Yes our doubles are good, but how good are Mogensen/boe under pressure, they never been in this situation before and against CTF/LWW i believe they are underdogs. Same for Peter Gade, he finds it hard playing against LTW, even if its over one and a half year since they met its still LTW who has the psycilogical aspect. Kenneth-hafiz is a 50/50 and if KKK/CCM delivers its 50/50... i believe MAS has the best team so far inthe last 10 years and that its their chance to take the cup this year. Even with WCH out, the good with having WCH was Hafiz as 3rd single as Hafiz is as strong as WCH.. but Malaysia has stronger doubles imo than China
It was really disappointing to see WCH getting injured. I cud see he was in top form as his sideline smashes were sharp and accurate. Too bad he was injured (sigh). Now our chances are slimmer but I hope the players. esp KKK/CCm and also KBH will rise to the occassion to prove themselves and take MAS into the final. MAS to win 3-2 !!!!! win 2 MS and 1 MD .....that's our target (doesnt matter which MS or MD )....
everybody who support Malaysia also sad about WCH's injury.... but what to do........ Malaysia has to face the challenge......... After this game versus Denmark........ if Malaysia can get through..... sure this thomas cup belong to Malaysia........
everybody who has a good sense of sportsmanship should feel bad for WCH's injury. we want to see a good match fought with each country's full ability. unfortunately WCH injury prevents us from seeing a full match up. and aside from feeling sad for Wong himself, i feel sad for badminton fans for the missed opportunity.
like every msian fans, yes I am disappointed with WCH's injury but still, the excitement is rolling!! The Malaysian team will be fighting till the end for their captain and Denmark will be all fired up to win the cup for the first time for their country. So, chances are still there for both countries to enter the finals, although there is a slight advantage to Denmark due to their strong doubles. Even with WCH playing, he is also not a clear favourite to win since Kenneth is also dangerous, therefore, hope is still not lost for malaysia because we still have Hafiz and Kuan Beng Hong to battle in the 3rd singles. Another 50-50 match in the third singles if the game is dragged on until that far.
For me... Mas 0 Den 1 Mas 0 Den 2 Mas 1 Den 2 Mas 2 Den 2 Mas 3 Den 2 KMH...my hero!! Ole Malaysia Team!! My good news for me .. tomolo half day leave already okay...hehehehe..
i tot LWW/CTF cant play for 1st doubles? i tot is according to IBF ranking? hah. but i believe that LWW/CTF will be able to get a pt off denmark's 2nd doubles! feel so glad that MAS have a reliable 2nd. =)
Hey Koo, why are you predicting that you'll lose tomorrow match? So much unnecessary pressure on Hafiz .... ... Go practice, and don't play the fool on court.
KMH?? Hehehe...ok, we knew u meant KBH...Yr prediction means a dangerous living for MAS to lose the 1st 2 matches.....but if it comes true, it will be sweet, sweet victory. Malaysia Boleh!!
I think LCW could beat PG. LCW really great with his form now. He is on fire !!! As Li Mao said, LCW could beat anyone now in this TC.
i think i should start a rule forbidding using a real player's name as username in BC... unless of course if they can verify to me that they are indeed the person.
It is true, that WCH and Hafiz are about equal, and both have equal chances against KJ. But with WCH around, if it goes down to the last match, then I have more confidence in Hafiz to finish the job rather than KBH. To me, that is the only difference when we don't have WCH. If it comes to the final against China, at 2-2, KBH is doomed while I feel Hafiz has a fighting chance. Against Indonesia, too, I think Hafiz could beat Simon, but I think KBH will lose.
I agree with your observation 100%, hcyong. BTW does anyone know the statistics of the head to head meetings between Hafiz and kj??
