Best team for Kreuziger?

Since Astana screwed up again Kreuziger is free to leave ....

Should he stay with Astana and risk the no PorTour and no TDF selections?

Perhaps what would be the best team for him right now?

Kreuziger should either go to the Luxembourg project, or to the Pegasus team. Astana will screw him over.
With the Schlecklets, he could perform well in races like Romandie, where he would be leader, and perhaps the Giro.
Pegasus / Fly V need a GC contender, and I think that if they get some solid domestiques, they could make sure Kreuziger lands a good finish in one of the GT's.

no point in signing kreuziger than.
What are their options? Kreuziger? Thomas Dekker....?

If I were Kreuziger I'd wait to see how the whole Contador thing unfolds. If Astana's situation is fixed soon enough, good for him. If not, he has the whole month to do something about it.

Swap Vuelta and Tour de Suisse for Giro, and he'd get the same in Liquigas.

Come to Pegasus and be the sole climber left anytime it goes uphill! :p

Kreuziger for the tour down under, we know how tough that is, a debut win for pegasus in australia would really boost the confidence :D

That doesn't matter, Kreuziger was sick of Liquigas and the fact that he had to contend with both Basso and Nibali. He didn't like the Vuelta either, if I can remember correctly....

He didn't have a stellar season, otherwise he'd been given more prominence. And I doubt Basso or Nibali will focus on the Vuelta next year.

IMHO he should leave Astana because I do not see any invites for Vino & his gang without having Pistolero on this team. Any team with ProTour license is better than Astana.....geeez what was he thinking :eek:

The most *** comment of the day. They got Vino, Gasparoto, Iglinsky, Kreuziger. And as we have seen in this season Vino has been outstanding. They will get invites.
 
you shouldn't bother replying to that.peppe martinelli will have in le tour 2011 probably one of the three strongest teams.kreuziger,tiralongo,petrov,di gregorio and maybe we got to watch out for kessiakoff and simon clarke.vino will have a good team,you'll see.at the end of 2011 season,astana will be at the top of the standings.
