Is he just another Tim Henman. Oh soo nearly but not quite.
I have an opinion on murray that he is already a global star in the game and he's won nothing of note. Even del Potro and Djokovic have managed to win a grand slam. Why does he get so much press and hype when he's clearly failed to live up to expectations everytime. You hear pro's say, Oh he gonna win a slam because he's so good". But is he really any good. Played an ageing federer in australia and he was well beaten and then decided to cry about it. Do i have this wrong?

I think he's better than Henman was, a more complete player but he really needs to step up. He seems to lack a bit of bottle in my opinion, doesn't seem mentally stable in a game sense. He needs the right coach and then he'll be in with a chance. I do hope he doesn't just end up the same though.

Think his game play is better than Tim's. His attitude is all wrong do. He can't seem to control his anger.
I personally think that he will win nothing, yet again the English press will destroy him. From a young age he has been over ratted and hailed as England hope when really he has only matured as a tennis player in the last 1-2 years.

I think saying "even Djokovic" has won a grand slam is a tad harsh. I like Novak, he's a brilliant laugh and a good tennis player.
But yeah, Murray needs to win a grand slam in the next two years or faces his career turning into what might have been. He still has the potential to be a really dominant force but does need that first win.

The problem with him is his attitude not in terms of anger but his inability to play aggressive tennis when he needs to.. In terms of defense, I think he is second only to Nadal but when playing against the likes of Federer, he simply cannot afford to wait for the opponent to make mistakes and win by virtue of that.. Last years US open final, this year Aus Open final and Wimbledon semis all come to mind.. He needs to make that mental adjustment soon enough or become the next Henman..
