Oleg Tonkov is looking for 2 or 3 and will be dissapointed otherwise but won't kill him :eek: (the truth in mirth ?) I suppose if you pay £ 3 million + for someone you do expect the goods.... Its hard to see Sagan wining 2/3 monuments when you see how strong Ettix Quickstep are and Cancelara ....Stannard, Thomas & Wiggins, and I think John Degenkolb looks incredible Also Kristoff , Haussler Van Avermaet, Boom, Van Summeran, EBH (in the MTN team that are looking to win a classic and are going to dissrupt the status quo) ?? So many good riders...Its hard to guarantee wins these days..alot of pressure on young shoulders ??

To be honest the classics are now a numbers game, you have to have men in breaks, you have to have men protecting your #1 rider so that they arrive at the business end of the race without having wasted any effort. Sagan has the ability to follow Cancellara, Boonen etc but he hasn't the team to protect him and his reserves - look at the way Cancellara just motored away from him at the business end of Flanders last year. The only upside for this season for him is that he's had his horrible bike position sorted out and he's got some people round him that have done well in classics before so he will learn more. Reckon he'll pick up a semi classic or two this season but no monument.
