If Djoko wins this in 3 or 4 this could give Federer the confidence to beat Nadal in slams again. Wishful thinking, maybe.

You're the only one in here acting like a 'fanboy' at the moment.
Nah.
Let me put it this way, Nadal will be seen as the best.
Indeed.
Most complete demolition of Nadal I've seen.
He really won't.
How does that work? 8 times out of 10 Nadal will still beat Fed imo. Fed's game just doesn't match up to Nadal's.
Similarly Nadal can't play against Djoko because the latter is a mirror image (a superior one) of Nadal right now.
The best clay courter for sure. I do think he had the Indian sign over Federer for whatever reason and for me Becker, Edberg and Sampras will all go down as better Wimbledon champs than Rafa.
Please.
I like Bernard Tomic, actually. Andy Murray, too.
HTH.
Please what? Your posting stupid green smilies doesn't do anything to aid your cause, and no that doesn't help - you're still acting a clown.

Yup R_Nick was right.
Because confidence plays a massive part. And let's not forget Federer came extremely close to beating "a superior Nadal (right now)" just a few days ago.
Good start - Rafa needed that.
Break. 
NOoooooo
Wind your neck in, UF 101.
Novak has to stay strong now, damn it.
Why is my stream so slow
A break atlast
Some Nole errors as well. Good game.

Absolute bellend.
Nice quick post deletion, UF101.
3-0
What did UF101 say?

It's almost delusional fanboyism for Federer, despite this match having nothing at all to do with the Swiss.
By winning one set?
BP Nadal. Come on!
I thought he won two sets didnt he? Guess not. Either way, I think it could help him a lot to see Nadal isn't invincible in finals.
to be fair lads, it's about 1am in Oz and I've been on the piss.I'm sure I'll awake in the morning with an apology or two to make
Oh and to be really fair, I don't watch a lot of tennis.
To be fair that's pretty fair.
Fed's beaten Nadal in 2 finals himself so I doubt it'll make too much of a difference.
Nadal has a game that can beat everyone but Djokovic right now.
Some of the argument in this thread has been fecking retarded. Firstly people claiming that Nadal would find this final easy, despite it being against an opponent who's already beaten him four times this year.
And then UF 101 wading in, bringing up Federer and then going off on one about fanboys when, as has been said, you're the one acting like a fanboy.
Nadal got completely roasted in that second set, good to see him come back in this set, I want to see 5 sets of high quality tennis.

Yup, but I think 6-7 times out of 10 Fed would beat Djoko.
Nadal's big advantage against Fed is his left handed forehand.
Strange what a short break between sets can do.
Oh and to be really fair, I don't watch a lot of tennis.
Figures.
I think I shall save a read of shame in the morning lads. Apologies to all who habe been offended by this drunken rave!
True. Fed and Del Po imo are the two players who can really take on Djokovic at his game.
But well Nadal's fighting back now so hopefully he can win a set this time!

Nice of Nadal to still try that through the legs shot.
3 players have won a GS final in Open era after 2 sets down, all at Roland Garros: Borg vs Orantes (74), Lendl vs McEnroe (1984) & Agassi vs Medvedev (1999).
