    Aren't you tired of trying to diminish Pogacar? He is 27 years old, is way better than Froome, and you are here talking ***, just to show yourself. Stop it.

    Annoys you? Do we look like we care? Merckx would be a meh rider nowadays. Not great to beat MDVP, not great to beat Tadej or Jonas. A glorified WVA. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Merckx rode against semi-pro farmers from 5 countries. Stop it.

    Pogi did a hell of a race. Congrats champ! Puncturing 3 times, changing bikes, even riding a shimano neutral bike, and he got another 2nd. Could not be more proud. Fought like a warrior. Your day will come, just like in MSR.

    Facts? Which facts? Your opinion and point of view don't turn anything into a fact. He crashed and won MSR. Won RVV. Also won Strade. He has won 4 Monuments in a row. But now, forced to chase after a mechanical, tired in the end, he is weaker. Ok, it's your opinion, but a fact? Not true...

    Meltdown here is sad and hilarious to see at the same time. Pogi was a monster, did a fantastic race, got 2nd again in his 2nd trial. He has won 4 Monuments in a row. Come on now. So much drama.

    Yeah, I am tired as well. He just doesn't have what it takes.

    Who is the better Classics cyclist Tadej Pogačar or Mathieu van der Poel?

    Pogacar, of course. MVDP hides from LBL and GdL, so how can this be a real comparison?

    Yes, I agree Rick. But we didn't have a Cipressa attack for 30 years. It wasn't feasible today. And we saw what happened last year. So, they have to try. Even if they fail. they should try something. Because Pogi is not dropping no MVDP whatsoever.

    But Pogacar can only drop MVDP if the latter is tired (Flanders last year as an example). So UAE should try to make the race so hard that when they reach Cipressa, only Del Toro and Pogacar are left. And then Pogacar can try to get some separation and solo to the finish. Is it difficult? Of...

    They will lose a lot of riders anyway on Cipressa. So why they don't take the bull by the horns and try to break the peloton before Cipressa?

    Yes, UAE just need to surprise everyone and nuke the Capos. What can they lose?

    Of course he could not.

    I agree, but it less predictable. Everyone knows they are going to attack on Cipressa, everyone is prepared, so the surprise factor of last year is gone.

    Yes, I feel a Cipressa attack won't be successful this year. They need to attack earlier. Berta is 40km from the finish. Is it difficult? Of course. But he attacked from longer distances, even considering MSR is not hard as the other races, I think this is the best possible strategy, to nuke...
