Finally we got mou esque analysis👏. It seems @mou has left his dna on some

First of all, ewww on the dna comment. lol.

Second of all mou wouldn’t resist taking on entire nations with a post that long

No one had more than one victory (now MVP has 2) and Matthews was very close last year. I think he was the best sprinter.

Matthew’s is the best sprinter with pogi in the race making it much harder on everyone

Probably but I don't believe Milan would be there.

Milan absolutely would be there with no pogi characterizing the race

I don't know. He was easily dropped in Cipressa.

Today is the day he will say if he will race or not PR.

It's high time, MSR was 3 days ago and still no announcement.

They said 2/3 days after MSR. This is the day.

I think other riders are getting the same feeling just like last year. No one is going to stop Pogacar, only a crash.

"He looked like he was riding a motorcycle" - Tadej Pogacar's opponents left speechless after Slovenian's Cipressa raid

Thanks to Tadej Pogacar's raid, the long-standing record on the Cipressa was broken with first-ever ascent under 9 minutes. Two men - Mathieu van der Poel and Filippo Ganna - were able to follow but f...

I don't know. He was easily dropped in Cipressa.

But w/out Pog there wouldn't have been an attack on Cipressa. I do think Milan (if Trek was only working for him, unlikely with Mads) can make it up and over the Poggio with 10-15 seconds gap assuming a strong attack by an Mvdp/Pidcock type. Which I think there would be, no one wants to go to the line with a pure sprinter in MSR.

The notion that MvdP, Pog, Ganna would not get away on a heavy tailwind Poggio is completely hilarious

I didn't say that. I said MVP couldn't drop everyone. Probably Pidcock, Ganna, and other 2 or 3 guys would be with MVP and in this scenario, it is very likely MVP couldn't win.

Hope he wont miss E3 regardless of roubaix participation

I would prefer to see him doing E3, RVV, PR and LBL. E3 is important to prepare RVV.

E3 is in 3 days, surely they have to know already whether he rides that or not.

Well MVDP was unimpressed, he followed doing even more watts.

Last year, Pogi didn't win MSR too. This race doesn't fit in his qualities.

Straight talk. Time for pogi to go to a new team? Managment has apparently promised leadership roles to most decent signees and it’s caused polemics in the team. Every day that clicks by without certainty on what’s happening affirms this isn’t a cold rumor

If Pogi races Roubaix it means that he's the true DS of the team and it makes no sense to go somewhere else.

I was really hoping he’d skip Gent and Amstel instead if he’s riding Roubaix but I guess he really wants to tick off the Ardennes triple that eluded him in 2023.

Pogacar in another team will never happen. Sheik will never allow such a terrible thing to his team.

It’s a question of riding E3, GW, FVV, and P-R. And have the necessary lead out support necessary to ensure he can possibly win all four. And not creating a bus full of bitches too bitter to ride GTs too

Let’s see. What teams might work…

1. Red Bull bora
2. Ineos
3. Jayco
4. Maybe a start up?
5. Astana. Ick no lol
