I wouldn't say they're that similar
I'd say LLS is a slightly better climber, and Hivert a bit faster. Aside from that, they're quite comparable, I think
Good on shorter climbs and quick in smaller groups

I think Isso was talking because LLS was a good TT'er while Hivert not that much. |

Also, LLS is a way more agressive rider, of course 
At least I don't see Hivert doing a solo win from far out, like the Tour of Belgium one from LLS.

Disagreed a bit.
Lulu is kind of rider that won and is capable of delivering highest wins possible i.e. big classics or Tour stage win.
Hivert is not, he might be good in smaller races, but when it comes to Tour or such, he usually disappears.

He said that because you where Boo Belkin.
Altough, if they fired him in May, why didn't they fire him back then? |

But I booed Belkin for terminating his contract back in May giving him all the 2nd part of the season to find a team?

I guess that's the drawback of not having worked with pretty much every Spanish doping doctor, Ferrari and who knows who else.

Jan Hirt to Eitxx-Ihned
Good move, I think. He should be their leader in the next season and he will likely earn a pro contract in OPQS for 2015.

No Frenchman ever rode for Rabobank by the way, at least if you can trust PCS.

Entirely not surprised, if he keeps on going like this, he shall earn a spot with the other Czech guy whose name I can't spell that rode for them this season. |

Ohnoes, I just read that LLS leaves Belkin. To bad, I'm a huge fan of LLS. So probably I will become a fan of the team LLS joins^^

I think Hivert in uncomparable to LLS, just because what a best LLS always was in that long range attacks, able to score multiple stage wins in the GT. Dont see Hivert outsmarting and pawning Sagan in tdF stage, like LLS did.

Vakoč? Not much hard to spell, just leave that mark upon c out, like all the foreigners do.

Do you know what kind of rider Vakoc is? As an OPQS fan, I would really like to know it |

Not Avin ( I am sure he knows more about him as a rider ), but Vakoc is a very solid puncheur/climber with a kick. I think it would be hard to stay whether he'll become one or other, but his results convey he should become a good puncheur in few years time for sure.

Mostly good punchy rider with a great kick as Alakagom said. This year he was really impressive with his progress and I think he is capable of doing at least decent results in punchy classics. But still - I am mad at Lefevre, that he had left Senechal to go...

Roubaix-Lille Metropole announce some new signgings. The most recent is Baptiste Planckaert, who is a bit of a puncheur with a strong finishing kick and will be a great signing for them. Other names include:
Timothy Dupont - another similar rider but perhaps not quite as good.
Romain Pillon
Jimmy Turgis
Ruby Barbier
I don't know much about these last three.
