All it misses is a leader

Pretty much.

 

[Thibaut Pinot]

Garmin-Sharp could also be an option for Langeveld, knowing that his manager already has a lot of "his" riders in that team.

Oh, and I just see that another one of that manager's riders goes to Garmin: TJ Slagter.

 

[b.broadhurst]

Who's contracts are up this year at Sky?

 

[Wigwan]

How does Slagter fits with Garmin? With Martin and Hesjedal for the Ardennes...

EBH has one more year, right? or is it ending in this season?

they don't have 1 manager..

SEG Cycling has multiple. Berkhout brothers + Nico Mattan

Hesjay replacement maybe? most people coming in to Garmin do so as an understudy, not a star.

Excited to hear though, great rider for my favorite team

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

doubt it, they have signed Rasch for another year, so ebh is not leaving

Stannard (rumoured to be joining OPQS), Rowe and Hayman are yet to renew. I would also put a question mark over Eisel's future after he was left out of the Tour team, though he does have a contract to 2015.

 

[JRanton]

Garmin-Sharp could also be an option for Langeveld, knowing that his manager already has a lot of "his" riders in that team.

Good point. Things tend to work like that. A lot of Andrew McQuaid's riders are with Sky for instance. Philip Deignan (rumoured to Sky) is managed by McQuaid.

 

[JRanton]

doubt it, they have signed Rasch for another year, so ebh is not leaving

It was either that or sign another Noggie because EBH has it written into his contract that he must have a fellow countryman on the team (incredible I know but apparently true).

They did go after Kristoff.

 

[JRanton]

They did go after Kristoff.

True but he renewed with Katusha before the Tour. I guess the only other realistic option would be the youngster Holst Enger although he's rumoured to be joining Belkin.

 

[JRanton]

EBH has one more year, right? or is it ending in this season?

Yes, he has one more year with Sky. He's on nearly 2 million euros per year and I doubt any other team would be willing to match that considering the races that he can realistically win (ie none of the major classics).

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Yes, he has one more year with Sky. He's on nearly 2 million euros per year and I doubt any other team would be willing to match that considering the races that he can realistically win (ie none of the major classics).

I really don´t believe ebh is making 2 million euros a year unless you can give me a source.

 

[JRanton]

Maltiv is the source. I think it was all but confirmed in the Norweigan media. Close to 2 million euros, so could be 1.75m for instance. Sky resigned him after the 2011 season, when he'd just won 2 stages in the Tour, Eneco, Vattenfall and finished highly in the world tour rankings. They obviously thought he had the potential to win MSR, Flanders and Roubaix. Remember even at that stage the likes of Bruyneel was saying if he could sign one rider from another team it would be EBH.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

duarte has been very unhappy with corti since quite a while and he will 100% leave

well if maltiv is the souce I ball bs. no rider almost anywhere makes 2 million a year. for instance valverde makes just that

Valverde in 2009 had 3,8 million per year.I don't think he has less now.

yes he is. that's why quintana will now make 2 million. he wanted at leats same as valverde

 

[karlboss]

2 million or even close to it is too much for EBH, probably double what he's worth.
