A Classic for LCW

[samuel882]

Many thanks, sonnymak.
Appreciate the details, the tactics esp. cos I haven't developed the analytical speed for that but I can see the big picture,the overall impression.
Am afraid have to disagree on the impression about LCW's 'weak moments'.Every player suffers from that; it's a matter of frequency.All top players are mentally strong.LCW's key problem is in his tactics but that's because he has so many weapons.The possible permutations of his play means he will have so many options it's hard for him to make the best decision; this leads to the impression of his 'faltering' moments.It has taken him a long while to get a good grip on his tactics and FO probably signifies that he has reached his tactics threshold.This means he is confident of his tactics.It seemed he experimented rather well in FO to the extent that most of his smashes were inside the court;no need to go for the lines, making him line judge-proof (useful in CO and HKO)but not the sj or umpire yet.But I could be wrong since it's an overall impression.
By the way,why does LD always need 3 games to defeat LCW?

That's so true, while LCW managed to defeat LD in straight sets for many occasions...

LD took 3 games to down LCW in their previous matches when LD won is because LCW always play best when he is the underdog and LD had to dig into his reserves to overcome LCW.

At crucial moments LCW lost a bit focus and that is lethal when LD is on fire.

Whenever LCW meet LD one can say LCW is more consistent with his standard and LD won because he has to put in extra focus and speed than LCW.

When LD beats LCW, LD had to play 110%,and he has tat extra 10%. But you cant bring out all the reserves all the time cause sooner or later your ability to bring the reserves out go down with time.

When LD is not focussing well, LCW always win because LCW's level of play against LD has been consistent. LD has said that he must always push himself to the limits in training because LCW Peter Gade and TH are the ones who can push him to the limits.
