My knock re Nadal is 13 of his 20 slams are on clay..also I find his antics irritating on court, the other two don't have ocd or his perceived by some opponents "gamesmanship" tactics.Great player and a warrior of a competitor no doubt.
One certainty there will never be 3 players as talented in the same era again.

Another Ruskie Andrey Rublev will be mixing it next year too i reckon is nearly 2 years younger and not as consistent just yet.
Skill level aside dont think I'll ever be a big fan of Medvedev but might gravitate towards Rublev to become the 2020's version of Marat Safin
One sure thing russian men's tennis is in bloody good shape.
Agree with Thiem but he has definitely improved a fair amount in the last two years or so, is at least right there with the other two who are their own worst enemies with inconsistency.
