Granollers/Lopez v Stepanek/Berdych

thought the Dutch big one drank when playing, is he still around?

winstanley is only 30

can you believe it??

painter is much older than him

well... they have to drink as their hands would shake, of course they drink a lot but not much beer probably at this age... its a pub sport and u starting at pub

Do not know too much about doubles, but it seems Lopez , Grannolers are different class...
For me it seems free mummy, but no bet for me doubles...

yeah both looks like brothers tbh

ehrm. not the legend i thought he was... Barneveld i believe? he had to drink for that reason too i think, even in finals and such

farki, i wonder what their future is. if Lopez even improves on serve could be bright

barney is playing

he's back to good days this year

he was very bad last year

okay nice, felt really old there for a bit

time to break old alien stepman

just keep hitting into Berdy's body. Lendl grinding his teeth. oh sweet irony 

there is only one dutch, MVG


barney doesnt look like drinking anymore , but tbh everybody enjoy one or two not a big deal

kist is also good

3-5 hours on court for berdshyte and stepmug before tomorrow's deciders

big mistake from CZ coach

MVG, that's rather scary looking one right, bouncer with a mean strike type

a set from Czech would be great

yeah, bald dude

czech win this 3-1

it's called aftertiming

superb poibnt

hobbit gonna destroy big mugs alone

if so wrong aftertiming imho more like Spain 3-1
or 3-0 off course

anyone please provide some links for the match?

yeah the eggheaded mean machine superstar of darts from netherlands

Granola **** it up, eh? My stream conveniently died too

lets see if this set will change anything

not that the spaniards are always cruising through their matches.... rather scraping wins so all bread for those two guys ...only thing is the atmosphere ,maybe too big for loppy but granny knows how to cope with it

Navratil's magical mystical mullet inspiring sexyneck and the bird.

and i thought Suarez was going to be the next big thing coming from the low lands 

Somehow I feel the Czechs were VERY fortunate to win the second set. Let's see what comes next...

doubt they will cruise it yes

not sure vasek.

for a long time, they have needed to treat lopez like the bitch he is rather than giving him too much respect.

i suspect a stern word from Captain Mullet was enough to remind them.

barneveld vs. kist today

that would be very interesting match

a lot of 180s probably

hope that this is the time for lopez that he can feel to be like nadal in his country for a short while

suarez done his bit here already hehe


mofo destroyed poland single handily last wednesday

speaking about darts, free money hammer time now?

sry didn't know. at the time thought liverpool got the sweetest transfer of the season and ajax was hustled big time. he was so awesome when he played there, sometimes biting the opponents and everything. much less diving too from what i read recently

That's true, they need to play it on Lopez all the time. But Granollers was simply too good for most of the two sets that he even 'stole' some play from Lopez. Spaniards stronger on the net. I feel Granollers needs to be average for them to win it. Not that I would want that as I have backed Czech Republic in this market as well as outright.

25mil where fcking carrol was 50!*

dont like people getting on lopez just because he isnt successful, clearly u can see he is skillful man and all the spaniards including rafa appreciate that by connecting with small guy

they'll continue to break lopez and that's all they need to do.

should be easy from here

on serve they have one where czech have two liabilities, Spain win

market was so in love with CZ and now they don't trust them

they're higher than SP

noobs again, Marin?

finally market learn something, give people some credit

i think that they're wrong again

cz should be lower

much less diving???

what the fck he did in netherlands? Sidewinding like snake instead of walking and runing?

*http://www.kidzone.ws/lw/snakes/facts04.htm

ahh ok sorry i misread that he dives less here than in eredivise

he's a small guy with good technique

i think spain would suit suarez more than England

my boy, got the whole of english soccerbal watchers against me already. at Ajax he was the nizzle of shizzle i tell ye, then that thing at the world cup and he never got back from the darkside IMHO

you can't compare quality of the defence in england with quality of the defence in NEDs

no doubt, lopez is a very good doubles player ;[p, but he's out of his depth against the weight of shot berdych is capable of.

my comment was really about the czech's needing to remind themselves that they need to play the match their way and to their strengths, not the spaniards'.

much agreed jinkazz, if suarez was playing in a technical type of side he would be considered a great player and wouldn't pull of this bs imho

of=all*

he was playing very good in last games of liverpool

he created a lot of chances for his partners but he's playing with some mugs

this guy shelvey, yeah? roflmao. big mug

i like him very much nofix i known him before liverpoon ,mainly from worldcup but was astonished hte price they paid for this guy and how underestimated he was early days,but he proved straight away hes top class ,still to this day here on betfair they think he is average,where hes one of the cream of football and has own style of play, top shelf player he was and he is.only this racist slur against him destroyed his progress a bit but hes back on track big time atm

they need to break lopez now and job's done

cheers, excellent write up
yup Ajax were mugged as per usual educating talent then can't keep them and then they go to Spain or UK for bargain prices, PSV used to be much better at that selling Brazilians

no worries dstyle i said in general because its true that he is underestimated,also by myself but technically and vision of mathc he is very good must say,true is that top player as berdy is too much for him at times(but as for all dbls players tbh),but  as i said rafa was trying to lure him for olimpic and he established himself so far,so there is more about him that we can taste on telly im sure of that, looks like vital part of this team anyways... maybe he sucks great i don know

I hope Granola doesnt fark it all up again

... and he is doing it FFS

they just need to break hobbit now

berdshyte don't be shyte again ffs

again 7-5?

probably

drawing of the tiger is on stepmug's t-shirt

he likes tigers

he had a lot of tiger stuff

deja vu

yeahoo

hobbit won't be lord of the rings

market was wrong again :)

Well at least the Spaniards are sharing responsibilities.

ffs as i plated my quetionable reputation for him life is unfair

clearly pressure of the stake and hostility of the crowd is so far big deal for marc lopez

Granola **** up the 2nd set

time for a Czech to mock up one

yeah, life sux

ooooweeee, just come in.  Are the Spaniards going to lose ?

could be. love games no df's wuz happening please

Step pissed off at crowd for sitting there

time to lay cz?

it's pretty low i suppose but said earlier they wouldn't cruise then they started breezing through their service games so no more predictions

3x 7-5 always break on Lopez serv :D

good jinx

it was granny bfore and againt, but it will be always lopez innit

bullies

gran pissed now, very smallish hope

The crowd appear to think this is their local football match .... disgusting

great result. don't think the Czechs would have won both singles if they'd lost this. Makes tomorrow v interesting. Could really go either way

thats normal davis cup atmosphere

impressive display of vintage mullets from both team benches!

lol spain's faith will rest in the hands of el pequeno Mug

on sunday i mean. not lopez

This could be Pyrrhic victory though, fresh Ferrer and Almagro against these two could take both matches.

tomorrow ganna be wild

funny linesman

berdy has to win over ferrer tomorrow , another long tough match for czech  couple will be funny. prices on spain players looking huge tommorow

nice climax at the en btw

3-1 as i predicted :) tomorrow i can see Stepanek beat Almagro, Berdych will be hard

stepanek with llodra style lol not easy

no way mugro will lose to step,easy match

well called suxor

ich bin ein noob but Spain still wins
GL all with the fussyball darts curling and whatnot

Fatigue shouldn't be a key issue for Berdych and Stepanek. They are likely to be immune to it in matches of such importance after they have won this. This will inspire them.

although i cheer czechy here, but spanish grinder against berdy who looking vulnerable  a bit and ferrer has his numbers over him

mugro mentally stronger than ever doesnt care about crowd only weird umpiring situations can get to him but he looked very well yesterday,operating form deep of the court will be quite easy for him to pass aggressive stepanek especially when he can drop a set or two in 5 setter and backhand is unreadable. this will be vile match if decider but can see easily mugro stepping to the plate much more than people expect of him,hes crazy mug but ambitious so it looks like time for him to be a hero and he can take it

but we will see how it goes step by stem,long matches lots of opportunities to be good whatever is happening at the end

mugro gonna win against step

and ferrer should win against berdy

CZ TERMINATORS?????

You are saying they are terminators, not me. Just saying that in a match of this magnitude fatigue is easier to shake off than in an ordinary ATP tournament.
