@BenjiNaesen Shame we can’t watch the first part of the stage because the break has Armirail, Tuckwell, Johannessen and Martin all with teammates so I don’t think this break gets pulled back, I think GC guys will need to jump across on the climbs mid stage

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen TDF 2020 - Best GC battle I have watched and one of the last times where we had a GC battle where different riders were better each day and we had drama all the way to the final day.

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen Why do you think so many teams are happy to let Vingegaard win today. Surely some teams without a GC rider would want to have a go & some GC teams would want riders ahead. This feels like a day that should get some DS’s fired for terrible tactics that don’t benefit their team

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@RokerReport No without VAR we never get promoted. VAR used correctly is a great thing that prevents games being decided by refereeing mistakes. The problem with VAR is that currently it creates about as many refereeing errors as it prevents. It should still be there but needs big improvement

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen Exactly what Skjelmose deserved, kept pulling despite a teammate behind and stupid enough to let himself get stuck leading out from the front.

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen What do you make of Gregoire and Skjelmose pulling with Remco despite having teammates in group 2

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@faustocoppi60 Riccitello isn’t in the break. There was pictures earlier of the peloton and he was on Seixas’ wheel

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@cyclingmole Hopefully your bookie pays out straight away as he may be in trouble for that move to the right to block the Equipo rider

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@LucGrefte Watson shouldn’t have sat in Ganna’s wheel though while he was doing it. Likely cooked himself and compromised his sprint because he went backwards once he opened up his sprint

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen Peloton lose the moto in front of them and MVDP and Van Aert get a moto and the gap goes out. Motos have played a big role in this chase

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen I think Onley crashed on the descent, hasn’t been on the camera since they got over the top. Svedstad hasn’t dropped back for him if he was just dropped and the splits were too big to have just been bad descending

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@faustocoppi60 Someone’s definitely crashed based on the splits in the GC group

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen Abrahamsen cost us a special finish there. One hard turn for 5-10 seconds and he can get into MVDP’s wheel to get a leadout and potential cost MvDP the win

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen He’s only won a Hungary stage and Luxembourg GC. This is his first world tour win so is by the far the best win

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@Capt_Fishpaste If we pay the option to buy we have in his loan then immediately sell for a profit that would be some good business. Quality player though who has been unlucky not to get a run in the team who is likely to shine when he gets the run in a set position

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@faustocoppi60 Not with these camera bikes pacing Remco

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@BenjiNaesen Had a look at what teams I would select and the rockets are far stronger. I was struggling with Caja to even get a few who would warrant a start at the TDF

Rockets - Groenewegen, Reinders, Kubis, Larsen, Lafay, Poels, Maire & Townsend

Caja - Gaviria, Oldani, Balderstone plus 5

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@ALS_Fanzine Le Bris got this all wrong. 442 has not worked at all, midfield is no existent. Hume and Mundle as the wingers was a terrible decision as they offer nothing going forward and Hume can’t stop making mistakes. Need to Diarra on to go 433 and try to get some control in midfield

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@RokerReport Depends whether Hume is the RWB in a back 5 or Right wing in a 4321. Happy if it’s 4321, disappointed if it’s a 5 back but I have learned to trust Le Bris so if he thinks we need to match their system I back him

[Andrew Kane @ASKBH94]

@cyclingmole It would damage their competitiveness but if their World Tour licence for 2027 is dependent on improving their financial position a big buyout for the Onley could be the difference between keeping the licence or not
