Why are you so obsessed with Pog? You seem to have a problem about him and other posters more than anything else here.
We are only talking about Ayuso in here and his actions. You are trying to make it about something else and going at other posters for absolutely no reason.
Ayuso let his team and teammates down in the Tour last year. They were visibly frustrated with him in Almeida case. Objectively this is what transpired.
Ayuso is a young and very talented rider. Of course he will get more opportunities to redeem himself. His ceiling is still high and he has currently a few years left on his contract with the team, unless something happens. Unless they have a big fallout... he will continue with them and they will work on things.
Did they know Pogacar didn't participate in the Giro?
He's not responsible for what happens to Ayuso in the races he's not in.
As I said before, rather than supporting Ayuso, many people use him as a weapon againts Pogacar. That's the saddest thing; it's not even a real suppor for Ayuso; he's being used to attack other rider.
Pogacar's problem is being a good cyclist and having beaten other fans' favorites.
Ayuso's situation is a new way of attacking him.
No former teammate criticizes him as a teammate; everyone has spoken highly of him. Even Hirschi, who wanted his space, spoke good of him as a teammate when he left the team.
It makes no sense to continue involving Pogacar in Ayuso's problems with the team. Pogacar is not responsible for Ayuso's situation.
And he's not responsible for Ayuso's schedule either. Pogacar is the best cyclist in the world. If Ayuso doesn't want to be his domestique, he knows he won't be the leader in races where someone better than him is competing in the same team. That would happen on any team.
But LR (Visma workers) and some fans say that's why Pogacar is hurting him. Pogacar doesn´t ban him; Ayuso went to the 2024 Tour, Canada,.. Pogacar isn't responsible for Ayuso having a contract with his team and not being able to lead the Tour because Ayuso isn't the best on that team.
What should he do, give up his place?
In FW thread, I read a comment on the forum calling Pogacar selfish because he wanted to win and wouldn't let Christen do it.
Is Remco going to be domestique for Landa in Lieje? Anyone who wants to share a team with those riders knows what to expect.
Ayuso's problem is that, being on the same team as someone who is superior to him, but that is not Pogacar's fault.
They don't know what to criticize anymore.
Now they've seized on Ayuso's situation to vent their frustration at Pogacar. It's so obvious they're doing it for that reason that it's absurd.
They don't care about Ayuso, he's their new weapon against Pogacar, it's so obvious that LR is using him for that reason that it's ethically questionable since they have interests with Visma.
