boll will face ma long and I dont see any future there, the chinese just know him too well

dima if wins against szocs hunor he will face koki niwa and anything can happen. Dima is also well studied I dont see also any future for him if he sticks to his current play. He still lacks mentality in tough situations and doesnt vary his shots, changing tempo/placement or combined was always a problem for FZD and if dima manages it he will definitely pose a threat but I just dont see it happening


My prediction for the final 8

ma long
timo boll
harimoto tomokazu
LGY

lee sang su

jeong sangeun

niwa koki

FZD

good job there !! talking about multitasking

vladi extremely well prepared and focused for gionis, 4-1 prediction for samsonov...unless he gets tired

ESPN3 here in the states is not as good as the European counterparts...

New interview with table tennis legend Timo Boll after his Round of 32 victory over Jang Woojin at the 2017 World Championships!

Timo Boll talks about his fitness, he answers whether he will retire soon, new coaching website and more!

 

[Garrison]

Dima is arguing too much now, he needs to focus on himself.

 

[TTFrenzy]

classic dima reaction/scenario, choking and not adapting when match goes out of plan. lets see 2-2 so far

 

[The Omega Man]

Dima about to crash and burn like the choker he is

 

[sanavasaraja]

To be fair, Dima usually builds his game on his strong, explosive and reliable backhand to dictate the game. Szocs' backhand is on fire right now, heaps of confidence; Dima can't dominate in that regard and thus can't get into his game too much. If I understood correctly, Rosskopf already told Dima to try to bring more quality into his serves to try to dictate the game right off the first ball, but thus far it hasn't been working too well, since Szocs reads them nicely

 

[Garrison]

This is gonna be a real mindgame now. I think Ovtcharov is stronger when he is confident but if he misses 2 or 3 shots he loses his focus

indeed but my impressions is that he gets "obsessed" with that game plan 9/10 times, outpowering and killing everything has cost him many unforced errors ( always in predictable diagonal attacks) throughout his career, he almost lost a dominating game against boll in CL because of that, variation is always the key, je also mentioned it in his interview but doing it in action is a whole different situation

Come on Dima, you can do it.

Couldn't agree more. This time around, this set, he varied his placements wisely, often placing the first long ball into Szocs' forehand so that he can't immediately go berserk on Dima. Suddenly it almost seemed easy! This should give Dima enough momentum to pull through, I'm guessing... let's see...

 

[Ilia Minkin]

I think that Scosz played a lot of crazy shots in the previous games. Putting all 110% in the strokes that somehow landed. That cannot last for too long.

yeap it was amazing and it seemed easy, because hunor tilted instantly after the change of game plan from dima. Its easy for us to criticize but Im happy he pulled it of in the end. Im sure he is going to win now

 

[TTFrenzy]

that slow BH spinny topspin @ 4-1 was pure art from dima, that is what im talking about, he needs to think about variation all the time. maybe write it down 2500 times per day in a paper and listen to tapes at night like smokers do !

Any update on Gionis - Vladi?
