Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

[mou]

you call out the haters, they come out like an army, it's terrible how Plugge trained them, like obedient dogs, so who in their right mind can sympathize an uncharismatic Dane next to the icon of fans,Pogačar, I don't understand that at all, the fisherman is so uninteresting and uncharismatic that even Froome is for him an idol to the French fans who spilled urine on him...

Is Plugge with us in this room right now?

 

[Taxus4a]

They are lucky the wind will be very soft in the last part of the stage, and more or less headwind, maybe crosswind, but soft, becouse that part is really open. Road quite wide, but in other circunstances echelons would have been a treath.
And in the previous part the same..favulous day here in Spain for cycling..so maybe I take my bike before the finish

Somehow it feels like I'm in a cartoon right now.

There are NEW Looney Tunes?

 

[Froome]

my thinking about Vingo being superior to pogi is evolving because of your well thought out comparison assessments.

Thank you!

@mou knows that, but he is too proud to admit it.

He's also better in how he recovers. Even froome with 38 years recovers more faster. He is already getting the hard miles one week after the fracture of the wrist on TA, the slovenian pozzato couldn't do that last year.

Pog's injury was much severe than yours.

So if I understand correctly - Froome is more better than Pog? 😮

 

[Extinction]

Probably not, if Pog goes all out. But if it's too early,like for example on Stockeau, I think Remco will come back, and in that scenario I would give an advantage to Remco.
I think Pogacar should wait, at least for Redoute. Even there I wouldn't go all out, but save the bomb for RaF.If he breaks Remco there, there's no coming back...

Good analysis, but we have to wait for how Remco shows up. Evenepoel, like all the competition, needs to up his game. Youth and talent are on his side. Let's see.

There needs to be a fantasy island splinter thread too. Because there are some dudes in here who hear tattoo in their head to get on de plane

 

[RedheadDane]

people are generally angry because @mou has all the verified information about Pog and they don't have it about the fisherman from Denmark, and because I'm rubbing it all in their face, I think that's essentially a problem and this one of mine 😘 for the army of haters, it annoys them. ..

"Verified"... sure...
But to be fair, it doesn't matter that none of us have verified numbers for Pogacar, or Vingegaard.
It's still the racing that's gonna determine who wins.

Poggi isn't that much older, and we shouldn't talk about talent.

I know, but what do you mean about not talking about talent?

 

[mou]

I have to inform you that as of tomorrow we are no longer hanging out, the annual vacation is over, so we have to bring this good banter to an end, we will hear from each other from time to time during Giro, bye to all true fans of Pog 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Who's most talented , Pog or Remco?
That's a debate for the ages.

exactly.

its silly pog and vinge is as irrelevant as mvdp and wva disussion..go to 2021 and see how their did head 2 head equal footing theres nothing to talk about if vingegaard beat a beaten up injured Pog doesnt change the simple fact its just the same guys for whatever reason are emotional invested thinking it actually is on them and they benefit somehow if their rider win hehe...Its dumb vingegaard isnt close to pogacar and hes only way of beating him is if pogacar is injured with almost no training in advance or giro tour double if not its 2021 all over again its not rocket science to judge who is the strongest all the fiction narrative you put in your head doesnt change that fact. Facts are still facts vingegaard has never in his ccareer beaten pogacar if hes not injured or whatever so what are you really even trying to defend like its somehow you or ur father were talking about its absurd..

Like its still ppl here i read that argue that wva is better than MVDP in monuments despite the fact that wva never beaten him in a monumental one throughout their careers same ppl are drawing narratives here which is just not align with simple facts its straight up wierd or sad whatever way you wanne see it.. the same ppl are doing that other stuff too and sure did some on remco its sad.

I rode a ride with probably vingegaard best friend from peleton and he even said vingegaard best chance of beating pogacar is like everyone else says'' he needs to be not at full strenght'' viola everyone knows this in the peleton you wanne know how and why? cause its never happened its really simple stuff guys when you think about it. but go ahead if its fun for you by all means keep going at wva is a better monumental rider than mvdp too if it gets you excited and throw in remco in that somehow in whatever fashion youd liked if that gets you excited too

Have fun guys.

Thanks for giving hope. But the Vingo faithful still think Jonas is superior on long hard climbs and at over 2,000 metres. Then there is the small matter of the Giro in May before we even get to July.

Wow, just wow! Pogi is a better all-round racer than Vingo, I'll grant you that.

This might be goodbye, but not farewell!

See you soon.

I honestly think the Tour de France is gonna depend so much on where the TT + sprint balance falls in that it depends on who is forced to attack.

There's no really great stages for Vingegaard IMO. Plateau de Beille is a super hard stage, but the final climb comes after a plateau and it requires Vingegaard to attack relatively early on the climb. Bonnette is just not a climb at all where Pogacar is gonna crack.

Skeletor will show the world who's the strongest in Nice! Not nice! (for his rivals)
