    You have to change precisely because your old ball has not been accurate. 'Fairly' in our context is not good enough! :rolleyes:

    Would anybody trust his fortune to be read by an unreliable crystal ball gazer? :D:D:D

    Surely you know LD is considered almost a badminton God! Misha should consider himself most privileged to be able to play against present World Champ LD. It must be godsend to him! :p;):D

    Honestly, I really cannot see anyone to win major MS nowsaday other than between LD and LCW, it's hard to choose. I have to sit on the fence on this one.

    LCW's path to final is full of challenges......R3 (NTM, who just beaten him in Singapore Open), QF ( SDK, who beaten him in WC 2007 QF) and SF ( LD, who beaten him in all major events)............:(...What a bad luck for LCW...:(.....:D:D

    As the days get nearer, I am getting more confident that LCW has got it right this time with his preparation.

    His physical condition is gearing up to peak. On the day, anyone playing him would have to be super duper fit else he is very likely to humble them. Therefore, just on physical condition alone, he can 'break' you.

    On skills, he has honed his skills with sharper play - net shots are getting very precise; backcourt shots are deeper and harder to read for the opponent; his smashes are now very threatening (the jumpshot smash can go any eachway-it will be tough for his opponents). He went to Korea to consult Li Mao to get it right - LM knows the chinese strategy having been there and it is quite right to pick LM's mind again. He is leaving no stones unturned.

    Misbun has got LCW tuned to the max. There is nothing that Misbun has not passed to LCW and hence, he too agreed to let LCW consult LM......just to be sure.

    On the optimistic side, I think he would cruise to the Finals with his fitness and skills. The Finals is when he would unleash his awesome power - LD has better be as fit. Hyderabad (the most testing place for any champion) will be bad memories for many but for LCW, it should be good ones only.

    I just hope your crystal ball doesn't cheat you again. :D

    I don't want your hype to result in LCW not even being able to get past the third round! :eek:

    ^^Actually..^^

    ..even if the lips are sealed, the fingers & keyboard on your laptop or PC can still do the "talking"..;)

    Anyway, on LCW, once again, he's put in a sort of precarious position to deliver the long sought after major title, in the form of a MS World Championship title, for M'sia. Pressure will be there and looking at the draw, definitely his road to the Final Rd won't be easy..

    just back from watching his final match at the mini olympic... first set was like a warm up session where he and the log HH were neck to neck up till some point... then 2nd set he's cruising his way to finish line with lotsa smashes... oh, and broke his string once along the way...:D he may pull it off at this year WC, barring any desease/injuries... but to date he looks very fit and ready...

    LCW and LD are not going to meet in the final - they're in the same half of the table.

    1) I'm sure you know LD will meet LCW in Semis, not finals.
    2) You very certain abt LCW's current condition, you went to watch the mini OG is it? :p

    You should have sealed your lips until LCW has won the WC title to do him a great favour! But the damage has been done again and your old crystal ball will suffer more cracks than it deserves. :rolleyes:

    Wah, our boss has a bit of time to sweet talk huh! :p

    If your crystal ball can't even identify which day LCW will meet his public enemy number one, do you still believe in what it has to say after that? The ball is confused! :D:D:D
