    Shame, as he looked to have got it in the bag earlier.

    Well he had those blisters which has got to be off putting and he seems to be holding the hamstring occasionally as well. Not looking good atm... he'll need some luck now imo. Can't see the no1 giving him any either :(

    More like the old Djokovic returned. He was untouchable from the latter part of the second set.

    Absolutely ridiculously harsh.

    When Djokovic plays at his top level he's unbeatable. Simple as that.

    A bit of both I'd say. Djokovic played better and better as the match went on and Murray lost his rag when things weren't going his way. The body language was awful the last two sets and can only encourage your opponent.

    He's just lost a Final to the best player in the world...no disgrace in that...more grand slam titles to come for Andy, no doubt.

    Wasn't criticising Andy. He was beaten by the better man in the end. But he was negative, as he used to be. Both in his play and his attitude. As I say, reminded me of the old Murray.

    Still, no shame in losing to Djokovic who is an absolute machine.
