Post-Transfers DB and Training List should almost certainly come sometime Monday.
Just finished applying all the new training, and there's certainly been some interesting choices.
It looks to be the year of hill training. 6 80+ riders have been trained, including 3 new 83 hill riders. There are 4 new 80 hill riders, and 4 new 79 hill riders.

Not a bad time to have the worst ever hilly squad in PT team i guess

Jeez. Was expecting more training than normal as not too many trades in the main window, but still - think quite a few of that total could be in PCT, not just PT (and no, not me ).
Wonder if this balances out the hill rider declines (and also same on the other terrains) that took place this season? Felt like there were quite a few of those. Would be interesting if we are at the stage where a balance is occuring in the matrix.
EDIT: And of course, post-transfers DB and training release incoming HYPE!

Not so!
2015: 64,625,000
2016: 66,675,000
2017: 67,025,000
2018: 59,550,000
2019: 61,725,000
With it having been higher than that before Transfer Tax came in

I'm going to try guess them all Some of them are already "public", some of them are obvious, others are just guesses and a few are long shots
The 3 new 83's are going to be Sagan, Mohoric and Lutsenko
The other 3 80+ trained will be Kinoshita, Izagirre and McCarthy
The new 80 will be Prevar, Haugard Jensen, Paulinho and Chaves
The new 79 will be Herklotz. Yates, Borges and Edmondson

My competitors are spending big money on training, and I still can't even field a top 20 team or pass a single goal.

+2 Hill for a newly promoted team to PT. I wish I had an extra 3.7mil lying around when I promoted to PT back in the day
That said, I hope its correct, I'd much rather it be him, than lets say...Kelderman

Why does everyone presume I'm training riders? Even with my original budget plus money from sales I wouldn't have had enough to train any of my leaders except Yates |

He is refering to the other Yates that put up to 79

Must say I am really bad in train my riders.
Since I went big on Keizer couple of years ago, I basically just were able to +1 De Bie and Olivier while other managers surely had been able to +3 or +4 them by now.
Having all those new 83 hill puncheurs surely is not ideal for me as this moves De Bie from potential podium rider in many races to potential top5 or even top8 rider only. Can`t say I like this a lot.
So once more can only hope that the depth works better than the individual quality for my riders making them overperform here and there. |

This is the first year I train one of my riders. in previous years I was only able to train those with a difference greater than 10.
I hope this training makes a difference, otherwise it will have been millions, thrown in the trash

Interesting developments. Nice guess there Aquarius. Not quite there for Borges, but 9/14 is pretty solid.
Can't wait for the final list and DB
