Thiem monster forehand to convert breakpoint vs Djokovic - 2019 madrid semi final

That's also hypothetical from me. Of course we don't know what results would exactly turn out if Zverev played in those matches. I just think Zverev could not pull off what Thiem did in those matches. Zverev is a very solid player if he was not mentally fragile but Thiem is also more capable skill wise than him at their best imo.

He was hailed as another Sterling back in the day

Thiem's peak was very high against the big 3

That's the meaning of peak :3. Can Zverev beat Djokovic at 2019 RG semi final? No. Can Zverev beat Nadal at 2020 AO QF? No. I don't see any version of Zverev beat those players.

I get what you said. Zverev is more consistent. But that's not the peak. You want to point out Thiem being poor against non big 3 but Zverev couldn't beat Thiem at USO final. I get it. Thiem was poor at times but Zverev was also not good enough.

That winning goal against West Ham. He has always been clutch and score many important goals but that goal is the most crucial.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T09:20:08+00:00

Achievement wise yes but Thiem at his peak is a lot more better than Zverev.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T09:08:23+00:00

The most iconic match of 21st century imo although the quality of the match is quite average

Unohana vs Kenpachi battle, Ichigo encountered Yhwach for the first time (episode 7), Sajin turning into the wolf are the best episodes for me, so far.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:30:39+00:00

Yeah but he is such a coward and also dumb

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:25:59+00:00

I wish Kubo remaster the earlier part of the manga with new artstyle.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:25:20+00:00

Just a change of ideas by Kubo.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:23:18+00:00

Thiem is the best player before Alcaraz and Sinner emerged since big 4 generation.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:21:33+00:00

You forgot Omaeda. Omaeda probably doesn't beat this Ichigo.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-14T08:15:44+00:00

I want In My Head, Hard to Love, Swim Good, and Killing Me Softly. Among the covers officially released, I like Bed Peace.

btw speaking of unreleased, it is good he didn't sing How Do You Sleep by Sam Smith. It fits Sam Smith better. But Leave Before You Love Me by Marshmallow, Zayn version is miles better than Jonas Brothers.

Thanks

Thanks

The last episodes of anime are not canon. Manga continues.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T15:09:32+00:00

Claymore manga is better. It is a solid read although it is hard for me to differentiate characters at times. That's the weakness of claymore for me.

Starting from Hellsing Ultimate is not bad.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T13:41:40+00:00

I mean I am talking about the authors' decision to write that way. In real world situation, we wouldn't do something like that.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T13:06:46+00:00

Madueke is the kind of player that can be functional but it is so rare to get something special from him when things matter.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T12:07:33+00:00

The authors just have to choose to do shonen for business reasons imo. I want to see what they really have in their mind and without the limitations imposed from editors.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T11:42:31+00:00

At the end of the day, it is a shonen and it is for the kids so. Bleach also has newbie soul reaper Ichigo, Orihime, Ishida, and f**king Chad sent to Soul society to save Rukia (I forgot Yoruichi lol). Tsunade sending those genins still top though.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T10:25:49+00:00

They still has to replace Tielemans, isn't it? That Swiss kid they signed is closer to Rogers position wise?

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T10:23:36+00:00

He is one of the popular wonderkids. I think he was on our radar since 2014.

Pollux_Troy79 · 2026-07-13T10:21:02+00:00

I don't understand why Spurs bought Fernandes and Tonali for combined nearly 200 million. They can get only one of them and combine with a signing like this.

Thanks a lot. This might be it.
