I see VDP being able to compete with him for the next 2-3 years at PR, but I think Pog will smoke him at De Ronde; of course I hope I'm wrong, but Pog is 3.5 years younger than Mathieu and VDP is right at the age where that is going to start to matter when it comes to explosiveness. I just don't see anyone touching this version of Tadej come the last Kwaremont/Paterberg.
Yeah, I agree age is in favour of Pog, but we're just on slightly part of the scale otherwise. I see Pog with basically no chance of dropping VDP at PR (without smth happening to him ofc) the next 2 years, and then give him maybe a 5% chance in the sprint.
