I don't really want this thread to descend into a Safinator v TGFR fight  As Dee & Nicki have already said, the different boards exist for different types of fans to express their different perspectives & opinions of Marat. Wherever you feel comfortable, you should be allowed to post  *LOL* I was just talking mentally , honest! ;D Maybe it's a kind of 'I'll never forgive myself for losing that match...! Why couldn't I win? Why can't I play? What is so wrong with me?' attitude  (BTW, that's just my guess - I've no idea what the guy is thinking!) Pointless observation > S&M is Marat's intials backwards ......  Nicki >> you've posted some incredibly eloquent messages since I last visited and I just wanted to thank you for them  You were spot-on about some fans living vicariously through Marat; it would certainly explain a lot of things..... Dee >> Nice to see you around these parts again  I know not everyone is like that on Safinator, unfortunately, some of the most negative also seem to be the loudest voices at the moment. Hopefully, fans like you can redress the balance Teresa >> Wow, thanks for such a lovely message, although I wish I was as serene and wise as the person you described *LOL*!! But my sincerest thanks for having such faith in me OK, pardon the diversion - I'll try and get back on topic now!! Re: Article: Are we finally seeing some much needed honesty from Marat?! Call me perverse, but I found this interview quite encouraging...he's not trying to kid himself, or pretend it doesn't hurt or it doesn't matter. This is hopeful.... this is something Peter can probably work with! Denying there's a problem has been underlining his recent interviews and he won't fix what he thinks is working ok. But this honesty made me feel things can get better...!! (OK, maybe I'm surgically attached to my rose-tinted glasses, I know...) - Marat, what’s your feeling after this loss?
I have to admit that I am terribly disappointed. I really am. I had a lot of expectations for the tournament. I feel bad, yeah. To be honest, I'm feeling not really happy with myself. But it's already past, so I cannot change it. I have to see what’s positive in it.
- According to you, was this defeat your fault or Enqvist fault?
If I would lie to myself, I would say it's Thomas' fault. But I don't want to lie to myself. A huge part of it is my fault, because I let him play well. He took the chance I gave him and he’s experimented enough to use it.
- You say it’s your fault but on what level?
The level of confidence! The best result I made during the American tour is a quarterfinal in Cincinnati. That’s not enough to arrive at the US Open and to hope you’ll beat a guy like Enqvist in the first round. I've not got enough confidence to beat these guys at the moment, coming to a tournament like this without any confidence is a little bit tough. |
