TTists are the key of the market this year, very inflated.
Not a good year to decide building superb TTT squad, that is what i have tried to do.

I noticed. Tried myself, couldn't get a single TTist I bid on for less than 80k, had to give up 3 of the 6 I wanted to buy. Will need to say goodbye to most of my (easy) goals.

Well, for me it was stressful too, but it looks like Metinvest will have TTT lineup:
82,80,79,77,77,76,76,75 - that is without 79 of Pluchkin.

That's great for PT, with my original plan I would have ended up having 80-79-79-79-78-77-77-77 next year with 80-80-79-79-79-79-78-77 in 2 years. Wasn't even that impossible really, but the prices for some of those got too high and yeah, I had to give up.
Will have to live with something like 80-79-77-77-76-75-71-70 for the current year.

Very rounded looking team fintas, not really looking to McCarthy battling Vogt.
Meanwhile this is my team, pending confirmation of Vanoverschelde, loan of Mullen and hopefully the departure of one or two of the riders I've been plugging in our transfer bank ( check it out! )
Very fine squad indeed. Daniel Martin is probably a bit of signing for the heart but he's also damn strong. It'll be key to send him to the right races with the right competition. In addition to McCarthy, you've got two great scorers. Not so sure about the sprinters. They look like they lack either in SP or ACC.
Yeah, original plan was to get in a sprinter to complement Marquez and McCarthy, I had actually originally enquired about Enger, not Martin, but when the possibility came up that Dan could be available, I simply had to go for it.
And y'alls talking about TTists, have you not noticed the 79 TT I put up for sale?

Basically I have money to throw at riders but I'd rather get one pretty good rider than two eh riders
I'm litterally in the same spot as last year when i threw 850k at Jakub Novak |

It's going to be very strange watching Swift on a different team for sure but he is an obvious points scorer |

Signed Ulissi finally <3
Should be the on par with some of the best puncheurs in the division unless I missed something, looking forward to battle it out against the likes of McCarthy, Froome and Di Maggio!
Also signed Teunissen a few hours ago but he stands no chance against Summerhill anyway

As Dippo did, here's my provisional squad, waiting for Nizzolo's confirmation in 12 hours (likely to happen) and same for Abdallah (could happen, 50%) and Pozzo (25%)

To try and get a rider with a very good fighter stat or not, need to weigh up if it will be worth it.

Fighter stat has exactly 0 influence on gameplay.

Yeah it affects the chances a rider from the AI gets into a break. So has an effect in the MG. |
