Hopefully a new young sprinter...

[joy118118]

Anyway, I composed a list of young sprinters who might one day be able to threaten Cavendish. Ofcourse, most are a long shot, but have shown promising things already.
The first 2 are obvious ones but look like not enough of a pure sprinter. The rest of the list are all wild guesses really. They are all fast, but will they ever make it?

-Edvald Boasson Hagen (Sky)
-Gerald Ciolek (Milram)
-Matthew Goss (Team HTC-Columbia)
-Jens Keukeleire (Cofidis)
-Kris Boeckmans (Topsport Vlaanderen)
-Jacopo Guarnieri (Liquigas)
-Fabio Sabatini (Liquigas)
-Kristof Goddaert (AG2R)
-Ben Swift (Katusha)
-Michael Matthews (Jayco)
-Sacha Modolo (Colnago)
-Boy van Poppel (Rabobank CT)

Like EBH, Goss is more for classics.

Hopefully the rumours of Ciolek moving back to HTC are not true. Huge backward step in my opinion

Think it could be a good move for Ciolek. As Milram are having difficulty with sponsorship it looks like he has to go somewhere. He's had a crack at the other top guys and hasn't set the world on fire. I think Cav actually thought he'd be faster when he left Columbia too.

He could take on the Greipel role and mop up a few wins surely?
