Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic recently discussed all things on and off the court over Instagram Live. They answered fan questions and one was for the two to craft their perfect player.

"You can pick yourself as many times as you want. You got serve, return, forehand, backhand, volley, and I just put mentality and physical," Murray told Djokovic.

All players also had to be from the modern era, considering the two have faced them and know their playing styles on a personal level.

For the serve, Djokovic couldn't decide between American John Isner or Aussie Nick Kyrgios. The Serbian said for Kyrgios' height he has the best serve he's ever played against.

"I think I would say the same for that and if you gave Kyrgios, Isner's height I would say he would serve better," Murray said. "I've practiced with him a couple of times and just warming up..."

"He warms up?" Djokovic said laughingly.

Murray continued, "He's done literally nothing for his shoulder or anything and he can serve unbelievable. No problem, such easy power."

For the return, the two didn't hesitate in choosing each other.

"You know obviously playing against you on any surface was always a challenge," Djokovic said. "But out of the three biggest rivals that I have Rafa, Roger and yourself, I found it the hardest to serve against you. You know, it just felt like everything was coming back."

The two friends continued discussing the remaining shots and assets with Nadal and Federer sprinkled heavily. But, what was quite interesting is that neither Murray or Djokovic chose themselves for any of the categories, though that might be because they're too humble.
