    Cullen had plenty of chances. Always bottles it. Needs to learn to get over the line in tight games like this. Smith and Wright used to bottle it in the big moments and look how they've progressed. Cullen knows he should have won that and looked distraught at the end. Great match to watch for the neutral.

    I don't understand this anti media/Littler from the older players, comes over to jealous from them. As if they wouldn't want the media attention when performing at that age like Littler does. More media for Littler is more sponsor for him, and by that, less for the others. Imo, Littler deserves all the media attention he receives and if he doesn't complain, why do the others out of his name or apparently for his interest, i don't by that at all.

He's always come across as a well-spoken, respectful lad who doesn't do insulting talk and just gets on with the game at a decent pace. Despite his recent success, I can't see him being a 110+ merchant like Taylor, MVG, Wright, Anderson etc. (aka the elite) but that won't stop him from winning it outright.

      I think he's seen as "not the right sort". His ring entrance is a bit of a buzz kill I'd argue. He's quite flat as a personality and just plays his darts. Has no interest at all in ANY interaction with the crowd. None of that plays well especially well with the Ally Pally crowd, who often, a fair few are up their own arse.
      For me, I really like him and really rate him. The world no 1 right now, but I do get the sense the ally pally going public have made their mind up, they aren't having him and that's the end of it.

    I'm sorry but it comes with the territory, no matter what age you are. The guy's 17 next month, he could wait until he's 18+ to start playing on the tour if he's worried about the press. If his parents are concerned then they should be telling him to wait. The press have a job to do and that job is to sell news. In today's world, that means soundbites, clickbate headlines, and sensationalism. Whether we like that or not, it's how they get the most exposure, attract the most advertising, and thus make the most money. That way of doing things isn't gonna go away so we may as well get used to it and accept it. This very channel has done the same thing: thumbnail of a player using an angry pointing gesture; sensationalist title; capitalising quotes; and using a 16 year-old wonderkid's name. Nothing wrong with that, it's how you get exposure; EVERYONE does it and will continue to do it.

    I have never seen a more luckiest player in this tournament. Luke the fluke has been the luckiest player in this tournament. I hope Chissy can beat this luck the fluke. Because there is nothing worse than a player having all the luck and win. While the best players get knocked out because of luck. Someone tell me if Luke littler and Luke the fluke got to the final. Who deserves to win on performance. I predicting a littler and gerwin final if they don't meet.

      You sound a little bitter, pal. (Aswell as thick as chit)
      "I have never seen a more luckiest player"
      In English, that translates to : "I have never seen a luckier player" Or,
      I have never seen a more lucky player" Or
      "I have never seen anyone so lucky" ..Or a hundred different ways...but you chose "more luckiest" Proper tikasfook.
