Or will he crash and burn soon? Surely even Federer isn't super human.

Even the Mighty Fed will succumb to physical and mental strain. Look what it has done to the players of the past bjorn borg finshed his career at such a young age and sampras fell over time as well. I do believe that if he continues until hes into his 30's like agassi he can maintain within the top 10 rankings but not the no.1 spot.

Federers' game is actually quite a classical style. he has loads of power but also great acuracy and stroke production. I feel his game is an example of a blend of modern and older styles.
Federer is quite like Pete Sampras although id say Federer is quicker around the court and slightly more wristy.
I dont see why he cant stay at the top for another 5 years if he stays injury free

Yes, I think he's only going to get better. Nadal's form since Wimbledon makes me wonder if he'll be a long term rival for Federer, or whether one of the others in that agegroup will make a breakthrough, eg Djokovic, Gasquet or even Murray!

Roger is magic, saw him at the Madrid tournament. I think he will carry on for a couple of years, and then retire whilst he is still at the top.
His natural successor is Nadal but he has a way to go yet.
Don't think Roger will burn out, he can afford to pick and choose the matches he wants to play.

If he isn't Super human he sure do come close. He has only missed one final this year and only lost to two players. I still think he can improve his wolley!

If he remains free of injuries we will see more of him in the years to come.
