Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[Vino attacks everyone]

Now that would be the worst possible scenario for me. I'd rather see him go to a new team set up by JB with LA as DS.

Majka will continue to progress and will become the new Alberto. I know it. I just feel it.

Really, you wouldn't like to see a Vino as DS commanding AC and Nibbles to attack Quintana, Pinot and Froome up the very last mountainsage of the 2015 tdf in a desperate atempt to stop the 3 year Froome dominance? An attack that would be remembered to be more lethal than both WWs combined

No because I think Nibali is overrated. I wouldn't like to see Alberto slave for an overrated rider. Majka can still progress a lot so could become a complete beast just like Alberto was 2 yaers ago. Again not saying Nibali isn't a good cyclist, just that he's overrated.

And of course Alberto doesn't really like Nibali and Nibali doesn't really like Alberto so Alberto would never work for Nibali.

Btw nice joke about WWI and WWII. I laughed really hard.

No offence, but Majka is also overrated (by you).

We cannot decide on that just yet. We have to wait a few more years.

Alberto working for a teammate in order to help him win Paris-Nice? Sure why not.

Alberto working for someone he doesn't like in order to help him reach podium in TDF. Why the hell would he do that?

Your new signature should be "Majka is like Nibali, good but way overrated"

This will be mine: Majka is like an underrated Nibali

Majka is a one-dimensional rider. The complete opposite of Nibali.

EDIT: Not that it makes him bad, it's just who he is. Like Anton/Pinot/Rujano etc.

You didn't get it did you.

At least he's not overrated.

Give the kid some time to develop please.

The powers that be (mods and admins) will have a meeting and decide whether to give him time or not, susan will get back to you and let you know.

Where do you get the notion that Contador doesn't like Nibali?

 

[Carols]

IMO Alberto as domestique for anyone is unthinkable. He should retire as a winner and become a DS, training under Vino

Well judging by Nibali's comments I don't think they're best friends

what if he never wins something again? He should retire already?

 

[Carols]

He will win again, have faith He might be in decline but he has the spirit and savvy of a winner. I think you will see something closer to the old Alberto very soon

 

[LaFlorecita]

I'm not saying he'll never win something again, just asking what you think he should do if he'd never win something again.

What comments?

 

[Carols]

I think I answered that; become a DS working for Vino. He is to classy to become a domestique for anyone!!!

He will know when the power is gone, get in a nice 1 week win and retire from riding.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Ok I will be awaiting her answer

 

[airstream]

Oh, it's so sad we don't have possibility to take Froome of 12, Contador of 09 and Andy of 10 to see what will happen. I'm sure 2 of 3 will strongly disappoint

Why working for Vino? working for Bjarne, that would be awesome. Btw I think he said once that he wouldn't want a job in cycling after retiring

 

[Red Rick]

Even if he's stops winning he's got such a mark on his back that every gt stage explodes when The Great One attacks

 

[LaFlorecita]

What comments?

Several comments over the years, giro 2011 for example

Okay working for Bjarne, that is even better

What would he do if he doesn't stay in cycling? He is basically uneducated, yes? Open a restaurant?

Nibali is quite respectful towards Contador. He for example said in the tour of 2012 that there's only guy he can't beat in a GT and that's Contador (it was something like that).

 

[LaFlorecita]

I agree

How should I know? Perhaps he'll get educated. Or perhaps he'll sit on his *** all day.

Open a restaurant?

This just asks for a steak house joke lol

That doesn't say anything, Chris Horner of all people said something along those lines a while back
