Guys, bear in mind though that this is Nadal's worst surface (historically). The fact that he beat Roger in the semis (the same Roger who only gave him 3 games in 2011) and the fact that he went unbeaten in the RR is something positive for him and his fans. I didn't expect him to win today - maybe it's just not meant to be. No worries though, the rest of this year has been awesome for him.
Just because he won 10 trophies doesn't mean the end of the season. Wake the thuck up Nadal!

Yeah man, I'm keeping things in perspective. Disappointed if he loses, but who can complain when he's already had one of the greatest years of all time?
He's clinging on. If he can find something in the next game perhaps there's a glimmer of hope.
I want him to win this because am not going to see any tennis til next year.
That's the point. Take emotion out of it and just enjoy it as a game of tennis.
I'm not a fan of Djokovic or Murray in terms of their style of play but i can watch them beat somebody i like and enjoy it and respect them for their ability.
My boy has been a huge disappointed since US open.
Not uncommon for players given the long hard court season.
In 2011 Fed was fairly average right through to the US Open, afterward he won 6 of the next 8 tournaments including 2 consecutive victories over Nadal including a demolition here (bagal).
