What do people say about Alexie Shirov:
I thought that Kramnik is the best endgame player since Karpov's decline , but after looking at some Shirov's games i kinda changed my mind.
Shirov displays great technique in the opening of the day. You cannot selectively choose the errors of your opponent as the ones you cannot see and your own errors as the ones that are blunders. In most games played by Shirov's opening is sound and solid. He does mighty fine after 14 moves.
What do people say about Gata Kamsky:
His games are something else. Sac, sac, sac, sac, mate. Actually, kamsky isn't so rusty. I admit, he did have a lot to dust off when he first came back to chess but now he's playing at the top level again. Kamsky was brilliant!!!
