I think it would been a problem in Team Astana then but IF all the captains agreed on it. Why not? Schleck is great rider, every team would taken him if they could..

This isn't PCM. Captains want to be captains. Contador almost left when a 37 year-old came back to his team. Think if an up and coming rider that's even younger than Alberto wanted to come back? |

Almost? I think thats just PR bull. He think he was more scared of Levi.
But lets say he come to Astana next year ofcourse.. Lance wont ride? Or will he? I bet he wont win the tour anyway. Then It's Levi, Conta and Andy.. If the tour route got many TT's then Conta takes that one. Andy takes the Giro and Levi will join the tour as help rider. Then he wins the Vuelta.. So easy. No need for PCM to make this work out.
I just joke This wont workxD haha

Okay he can carry water in the tour if that makes him more happy..
Brajko is great. Ok it's no room for Schleck! Atleast not next year.
But why do you allways bring in Lance all the time? We have understood that you hate him.. We all understand why to. I would gone crazy if my Fav rider got beaten so many times in arow..

Andy Schleck in Astana? Never. He is leader in CSC. He hasn't any reason help Contador to Astana.. He can compete with Contador already this year in TdF. He can be winner this edition Tour. Easy. B) |

Losing two riders that haven't even entered the conversation won't help
Listen: Yes Contador means No Schleck. End of discussion. |

By the way!!
The thing I said about Andy coming to Astana was all a JOKE..
But as a Astana fan I really dont want anybody to leave Astana.

Yeah I know I know I know. I Said it was all a joke 3 or 4 times now...
It would be like having Boonen,Cavendish,Petacchi on the same team in the tour..

Sorry, I got confused with the whole "I'm joking" thing and then trying to come up with a new argument. I see now that It was supposed to be an additional "joke." |

Oh well, since we now do have this thread, let's use it for something proper instead of that quite useless discussion above
To avoid getting 'harsh' questions, Astana decided not to arrange any press conference on yesterday's rest day in the Giro.
Not really a good sign |

Remember all the money Bruyneel had guaranteed would be paid by yesterday?
It wasn't.

Nope, they paid a very small part of the debt yesterday.
And your link says the same
