Who will replace them, according to you?
Tough to say as Sky have been very quite in their transfer talk.
There's some stories of internal strifes in the team such as Wiggins apparently despite public statements, has not privately thanked any of the riders or staff involved at tour. That stories reportedly led to Vanmarcke and Breschel turning Sky offers down. Rumours of Vuelta squad unhappy that Brailsford has not attended the race. accusation of favouritsm to Wiggins and Cavendish.
So all that influences the situation a lot. Dombrowski and Jungels are good bets to come, at least 1 of them will I think.
Sky will also sign a classic rider or two, to replace Hunt/Flecha. It's a definite, but no idea who that might be. Lars Bak is a decent shout. Tiernan-Locke is another obvious rumour. Brailsford said he wants to win monument and focus on better classics result, so there will be signings directed in that area.
Now we know why they failed. Brailsford didn't bless the team with his awesome powers. 
Yeah, they missed the voodoo-dolls he used to give bad luck to Wiggins' rivals in the Tour.

Just checked the CQ-Transfers and saw that both Breschel and Zaugg was confirmed transfers to Saxo-Tinkoff. No doubt i've heard the rumours before, but i haven't seen them being confirmed... Have i missed something out?

From the Planche de Belles Filles stage, when Van den Broeck punctured at a very bad time:

I don't think Van Den Broeck was the only one. Valverde, Gesink, Leipheimer, etc. who we're victims of the dolls. But they forgot here in the Vuelta. Also, I think they're using it on Cav. |

As expected Erwann Corbel joins Bretagne-Séché as a neo-pro. |

They haven't been confirmed by the teams, so no, you didn't miss anything just yet. |

According to cyclingfever.com, both Marzio Bruseghin and Polish U-23 champion Pawel Poljanski, has signed for Team Saxo Bank
Same with Kreuziger, Breschel, Bennati and Zaugg though, but nothing confirmed yet...
