Well as expected the british media has been working overtime to hype Murray up.
He is a good player no doubt but I would like to see some good results to actually show he is deserving of all the praise.
One win over a tired Federer and I remember they acted like he was the greatest thing ever.
However Brad Gilbert is a good coach and it will be interesting to see how his Australian Open goes.

I think the way murray plays he is going to need to be as fit as someone like nadal if he wants to get into the top 5 which i reckon he can acheive if he puts the work in which he is doing now no doubt.

What I cant work out about Murray is he looks fit and strong and he certainly doesent look like a weakling physically, but he is unfit in the sense he cant last the distance in long 5 set matches sometimes :(

I'm not sure why because he looks fit enough!

It's easy to look fit at that age, when you're a young guy with a slim build. A good comparison is Wayne Ferreira, he not only looked fit, but he was and he stayed like that for many years.

I think Andy needs to bulk up a bit aswell which maybe will improve his serve aswell to get stronger in the legs.

Murray needs to work on his shot selection, first and foremost. Those loopy dropshots have to be controlled.

The biggest things that i feel he should improve is his fitness and his First and second serve.

Good lord yes!

The fact that he can win as much as he does with his lousy first-serve percentage is quite remarkable in itself ... :yikes:

What is it the ball toss or what when he gets good days on it he seems unbreakable though.
