I read a lot of people thinking Pogacar'season is not that great due to missing some major wins.
Indeed, stats wise, it is not the best one.
But what matter a lot for a rider's legacy is the impression he made on watchers.
For me, even though he lost in the TDF, in MSR and in RVV, he was the most memorable rider in those races, or at least on par with the winner.
Agreed.
Which is also why I think Sagan is a lot bigger than "five major wins".
