who here thinks that sagan is racing more than he should?

he showed (at 21) he can win MSR, RVV, and today he murdered gilbert in the cauberg, after a failed attack with voeckler.

nibali (an amazing rider) is costing him better results. he didn't help win when he needed in MSR, arguably costing him a victory, and today.. well...

is it time for sagan to move? witch team? isn't he overdoing it (races he always tries to win.. not walks like andy).

no doubt an even more unnecessary reply.

at least he posts a valid question; who here thinks that sagan is racing more than he should? Probably could have been posted in one of the other sagan threads, still better then half the stupid poll topics.

all in all, maybe he is racing a little too much but the results he have are pretty good, not a lot to regret in that regard, hopefully he doesn't burn out.

now this is really interesting...

i only fear one thing about liquigas. are they going to make him rider the tour? that would be so useless. a guy like peter should race all 5 monuments, lots of classics and the worlds. anything else just to warm up and get stage wins.. a tour would destroy a potentially phenomenal season.

don't you have this feeling that we found our "kelly", the same feeling with VDB...
finally we have a phenomenal rider that isn't here to forget everything and go for le tour..

i don't know how to explain.

sagan is an amazing talent. I don't see any problem with his schedule. He is going to rest now until i think the tour of california and than doing the tour de france and the olympic games. I'm very impressed by this young kid!

one thing is astana making an offer. the other is nibali actually going. 2 very different things and that link gives no kind of confirmation about the second. so you are still the only person talking like if it is a done deal.

Did you read it at all :rolleyes:

'According to the Australian newspaper Nibali has already signed a two-year contract with Astana'
