Yes i think so!
Vishwanathan Anand

Who knows? But I wouldn't be surprised if he qualifies again to a WC match.
No one ever recaptured the title at such an age except for Botvinnik, and he did it thanks to automatic rematches.

Anand is in good form, and will perform strongly, but I honestly believe he is past his peak already.
Any serious challenge that Carlsen will face will be from one of the younger generation players imho.
Vishy is great at the moment while Carlsen just had his worst tournament ever.
The only real challenge from the younger generation is Wei Yi, everybody else, nah.
Carlsen's best challengers will probably stay being people from his generation or from a older generation for at least 2025
Vishy has perfomed very well and played some extra ordinary exchange sacrifices in shamkir and norway tournament.Is that the sign of going to recapture his world championship title?
