Shakhriyar Mamedyarov

Does anyone follow this GM often? Is he one of the best attacking players of today? I am looking for newer attacking players and he seems to meet that criteria very well. If not him, then who would you suggest from todays ranks?

carlsen

I've learned that Carlsen wants to just reach a playable middlegame and then beat his opponents from there. He is definately one of the top choices. I'm looking for the slightly less heard of people who contribute a lot to attacking chess so I can have more than just Carlsen to observe. I think that Shak might be just that but I wanted to get some opinions. Carlsen is definately a good choice though.

Shakhriyar Mamedyarov is the best....because of he has a Sumgait school

For me, best newer attacking players are :

Baadur Jobava

Emil Sutovsky

Arkadij Naiditsch

Shakhriyar Mamedyarov

Vadim Zvjaginsev

Shirov
