    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Well i will like to respond about Pog but apparently I will be banned if i carry on this discussion.

    Pogacar v Merckx

    What I don’t get about those who say Pogacar is better, or the goat, is their almost rabid desire for it to be true. He hasn’t done anything unprecedented (yet) and his palmares so far do not reflect goat status. We could assume if he stays on his current form he can more or less equal Merckx ...
