Its the next wave of players making it to the top level... Raonic, Nishikori, Cilic, Dimitrov are all less than 25 yrs of age and are capable of beating the Big 3.
Fed is slowly fading and his only chances are at the masters and other lesser tourneys. He won't be a favourite any more at the grand slams. Murray has health issues just like Nadal. Other new comers are also having abundant talent and are making men's tennis more interesting.

Not really. Remember he lost to the eventual Champion Cilic. There was little he could do that day to stop Cilic, who is playing the best tennis of his life right now.
Shows how difficult it is to maintain the stratospheric levels we expect each time from Federer.

May be Cilic is a one slam wonder like his coach Ivanisevic, Warwinka, Del Potro, Jan Kodes, may be Hewitt, Roddick etc. Wait and see.

Cilic is only 25 and still has lots of tennis left in him. He can't be in the same league as Hewitt or Roddick because they have been # 1 sometime in their career. Cilic has the game to become a top 5 player. He only needs proper coaching and he can win few more slams.

I doubt. When Kyrgios beat Nadal. everybody said a new champion is born. Its difficult to say now cilic, warwinka will win another slam.
