I really don't know at this point...Now it begins to look like a huge unrealised potential he has irks people more than his in/out execution of his programs - the execution, pops, stepouts and jumping problems became already his kind of thing we expect from Mikhail and him lucking out when the field is not doing well - but how about making the logic the other way, to expect realizing his quality in action consistently, no matter what field does? I do wonder if he already accepted the fact he's headcasing his jumps, because his body looks ready while his entrances are getting longer and longer - he overthinks what he's doing on ice instead of just doing it. And his remorseful stare, expressionless and blank, at the end of such skate won't help.
He looks like to have the support, still, despite being in and out, but he does nothing to make the support worth it at this point. It just does not feel confident and top class seeing him, his uncertain approach towards his skating. No doubt he is talented, skilful, has lovely qualities, but when the full potential of all of this will be realized, giving him (and us) some satisfaction?

S: He's here, well, it's a storm of feeling, Oda said as well, what do you think?
Y: Well, Somehow, the result can be called a No-miss performance, I think. So I'm a little relieved.
S: You are relieved, but there were no misses and in points this is a world record, in your heart, aren't you happy, I'm happy!
Y: Well, today, from the point of preparation, there were points of regret, like for the 6 minute warm up, or before that, how I spent time, there was a lot of uncertainty. But I feel relief that it was done.
S: After Finland you said you wanted a Perfect Package, I feel that with this Short program, you can lead towards it. What do you think?
Y: Well, this time, in myself, I can't say it's perfect. I'd like to reflect on those points and use them going forward to tomorrow.
S:Tomorrow is the Free, and it's Russia. Along with the Music, I feel you have strong thoughts on this, please tell us about it.
Y: First, I'd like to say that Tatiana Tarasova, who choreographed the program Otonal, which I admired, was watching today in the commentators area, and during my stepsequence, stood up, I have thankful feelings towards them, next, tomorrow, I want to do my best for Plushenko.
Maybe be just needs more time? Brezina has always been a super-nervous type of skater too, and seemed to give up on his programs after the first couple of mistakes, but now he seems to have calmed down a lot...
But Brezina doesn't have any domestic competition, nor does he risk being shamed into retirement by his federation.
I need some Ted Barton, positivity now.
I'm ready to suffer
No one loves Voronov. >.<
Well, Yuzuru is the greatest after all.
I have recorded this event on TV. Should I or should I not watch the whole Men SP? Or I watch only top3?

Just the top 3. Or even better, just Yuzuru. If you're feeling generous I recommend watching Kazuki as well, he's in 4th.
