I hope Bjarne signs De la Fuente and Cobo, but probably won't have the cash I guess.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

cobo probably to astana. they have the money

 

[Moondance]

Bring Me Cobo

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Astana is most likely, unless Caja Rural or Andalucía suddenly stump up beaucoup money.

Andalucía might need to, cos that's a horrible team right now.

 

[jens_attacks]

astana i hope with matxin and de la fuente

aren't they getting jose belda? I read nothing about it anymore but he's an animal

 

[maltiv]

Well, Sky has two spots open...

 

[Cobblestoned]

I hope he'll join the cirque de soleil.

 

[scullster46]

If Menchov declines Katusha, I wouldn't be too surprised to see them try and get Cobo

Sorry for all the riders and staff.
Not sorry to see the back of Gianetti.

 

[Old School]

Ride on riders....Ride on!


Going to Astana, he is.

 

[ElChingon]

There's always Portugal

 

[Libertine Seguros]

There's always Portugal

But none of the teams down there have any money anymore. The main draw of Portugal in years gone by was that it paid a lot better than the Spanish national scene.

Maybe with a bunch of good riders available on the cheap someone will buy up a random small team and stick some of these guys over the top like Rasmussen did to Stenca last year.

Any room left on the BMC squad?

 

[Eric8-A]

Didn't Bjarne Riis obtain an additional sponsor earlier on?

 

[Ferminal]

Someone give Savio some cash!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Bring Me Cobo

Get lost!

Any room left on the BMC squad?

4 spots.

As long as he gets into a team that will allow him to get into the TDF/ and/ or Vuelta, i am fine.
I think he could go to Astana. ( other possibilities Sky though i doubt it and BMC's super team ). I wish GE could have got him, even Porte would have sufficed.

Vino and Kessiakoff go to the Giro ( then go to the TDF )
Kreuziger is the main GC contender at the TDF, whilst Cobo is free to go up mountains for stages.
At the Vuelta Krueziger works for Cobo.

I wish it could be as simple as that.

 

[Swabian Lass]

Katusha are his most likely destination, I think. Maybe Astana. I'm sure that Saxo would like to sign him, but I don't think they've got the money, ditto Andalucia.

Really can't see Sky being interested.

 

[gustienordic]

Do you think Cobo will bring Duarte or any of the other riders with him to a new team? Or will they all be looking for something new?

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Katusha are his most likely destination, I think. Maybe Astana. I'm sure that Saxo would like to sign him, but I don't think they've got the money, ditto Andalucia.

Really can't see Sky being interested.

Saxo and GreenEdge are the teams that need him, but one doesn't have the money and the other seems to have decided not to bother with GC.

Sky and BMC have the money but already have too many leaders and adding another one would just cause additional friction. Garmin don't have the money and, well, I'm not sure that Cobo would be too keen on the other kind of hurdles they set up. The French teams don't have the money, nor in all probability the interest.

Katusha and Astana seem to be the most likely options. Where Menchov goes might also play a role, as hiring in two GT winners at the last minute could stretch even the sillier budgets in the World Tour.

I would really like him to go to Saxo, as he along with Sanchez and Contador would be great to watch. Any team that signs him will no doubt have increased their GT climbing contention raised.
