First it is a matter of time... even Sampras acknowledges that.
Second at least he has reached the final three times of roland garros, Sampras hasn't even reached the final
Third nadal has won 11 to 6 for federer, 9 of the 11 of Nadal's were on clay... if anything, that shows how competitive Fed is on clay, while Nadal not much on other surfaces...
When greats like Borg, Sampras, etc. refer to Federer is the history's greatest, who are you and I to judge?
