Blimey, this thread has exploded a bit since I last checked in. I took @mou's first comments with a pinch of salt but it is pretty clear to me now, he is genuine. @mou have you p*ssed off UAE? You were being followed by Jeroen Swart yesterday and now he has unfollowed :cool:

I think I know who @mou is but don't want to expose his identity if it means he stops posting....
I don't care about the UAE and feel free to say what you think about who I am... you have my permission and even a request to say 😉

OK well I guess you are from a Balkan nation and your posts have British colloquialisms so you have been educated or work in the U.K? And you have worked with UAE, either in the past or presently.

Is this you?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆, no, no one knows who I am, not even the UAE although I found out that Matxin inquired... When the next time he compiled the wrong team in some race for Pog, in my opinion, I will publish another part of Pog's power profile to irritate him as much as possible....
 
These fools from the UAE will never find out because I won't give out my contact and they can't send all the people around Pog to the detector, I've only been asked not to post any more training on the net and I'll respect that and I can talk like this whatever I want to and you can believe it or not, you better believe it because then you will process what follows in Catalonia and the Giro more easily, but I am especially allergic to Matxin and will he continue digging into who is behind @mou because this forum has spies from Visma, you can see that everything reached Bruynel, who asked some of his people about these data and what do you think he published them in one of the most watched podcasts, and that's why Matxin was irritated...but when the next time he puts Ullusi, Covi and Hirschi with Pog to the team for the race that requires Pollit, Bjerg, Morgado, then a new leak of the power profile Pog will follow....😉😉😉

I like reading your post about Pogacar. But at the same time I want Pogacar to win the Tour. And you posting all these files don't help bc Visma are forsure looking also

Who are the spies from Visma on this forum?

I don't know, but as they conveyed to Bruynel, do you think they didn't convey to Visma, who is now with her IT sector trying to read more detailed information from this, believe me that they are currently debating whether this is true or not what was published and what is hidden behind the change of coach San Millan

It wasn't you who gave the data to bruynel?
no, but some people forwarded it to him here from the forum and then further communication continued on X where he asked for some confirmations, of course he only got what you and some more pictures from the TT in Valencia and who was in those pictures, I don't care about Bruynel, of course I won't reveal anything relevant to him
 
it is no longer important because no one can reach Pog's new level, not even Vingo, so there is no fear of that, but the UAE does not like it to go public
Why would it matter to Visma if they get some power data on Pogacar? Basically you can back-calculate what he did on Colle Pinzuto, Le Tolfe, Cipressa and Poggio. I have never really understood why power files should be so secret. What should you do with that info when there are so many other unknowns?

What I would really want to see is the build-up riders like Pog, Van der Poel etc do during off-season and in advance of major races.

and that is exactly what the UAE does not want to be known, I have an insight into the Pog account at the training peaks and I know everything and I tried to open people's eyes here that Pog 2024 compared to 2019-2023 is like Jorgensen Movistar and Jorgensen Visma, but it is difficult for people to accept and understand what's coming next, I wrote about what was being worked on and the correction of mistakes from that San Millan so I don't repeat myself now... the storm is coming

The performance staff of each team can always calculate the data of the rivals based on the performances they do, there's no secrets.

but there is no his performance in training after specific efforts after 4-5 hours of training and believe me these races in 2024 did not require those efforts and numbers that Pog has right now

So what you are saying is that UAE does not want to reveal the build-up program? Makes sense. That I would consider is proprietary and valuable information. We all know it entails some general principles such as z2 volume paired with high intensity stuff (polarization) but exactly how/what/etc is unknown. On the other hand - even if we had 100% transparency - I am not overly convinced that it would change that much. Not even a rider like Vingo can transform himself into a Pogacar. At their level genetics play a significant part.

The ex-post / race data are less controversial? We just have to watch what happened and not much to be gained from that more than realizing that Pog has an extraordinary capacity and that very few riders can follow him.

I think the best signing of the year for the UAE would be Arensman, whose contract expires this year, I would consider him the ideal man for the Pogačar train, ahead of Sivakov and behind Del Toro, an ideal signing

I think Arensman are off to Visma.

UAE are probably going hard for Philipsen and start bringing sprinters together with 3-4 GC riders.

and that's why Matxin has been trying in the last 2 days to find out who is behind this account @mou, if he's reading this now, the message is for him to be a little more careful about who he puts on the team with Pog and to put Ayuso down a bit, otherwise there could be big riots if it's published complete Pog plan of preparation for the winter and before the races and 😘😘
