Like Liqui with Nibali, Lampre - Scarponi and Cancellara the last couple of years :rolleyes:

You're smart enough to realize you just mentioned 3 Italians. Yeah, Cancellara is a half Italian.

Besides, Liqui have Sagan who has a genuine chance to win this.

I know Hushovd's main objective is Roubaix, but I could have sworn I heard something that he was also aiming for MSR.

he should now that Phil is ill...:)
If he and Phil were planning on working together they would probably do well.....well, maybe. Things haven't been going so smoothly for them yet.

Van Avermaet has pulled out of the tirreno tt because he has a sore heel. FFS, BMC are falling to pieces.

Dont worry, its just a precaution for MSR. When it comes to the big races, BMC know what to do. We shall be patient until Saturday and just wait for their big performance.

Let's look at the evidence.

Gilbert- Finished
Hushovd- Finished
Evans- Finished
Van Garderen- Flatters to deceive
Phinney- Massively overrated
Ballan- Not the force of old

On the plus side though, Van Avermart may win a race or two this season. Hardly a justification for the massive outlay BMC have made over the winter.

By "finished" I thought he meant they only finished the race without doing anything. If he meant the other "finished" well I totally agree with you.

Sore heel is a bit of an understatement.

Its one of the big 2 he want to win, but not the ones he is specifically peaking for, those being obviously the ardennes.

I wouldnt call that evidence rather a biased opinion.
