This is the problem with people who don't know a lot about cyclocross 
At this type of race, hard underground (light mud) and lots of corners, high speed race, Albert (and a fit Nys) are normally superior to everyone. Nys wasn't fit, so it was an easy one for Albert.

Every year it's the same, they start very early in Czech and rule in the first few crosses. And then they get tired and suck when Koppenberg starts. In december they get better again and at the worlds they have their new peak |

Did you ever tried to think about what you're saying? Everybody would benefit from it. |

Damit, my opinnion was outnumbered...
Å tybar really isn't the good one, if i'm talking about czechs, BÃna is the best, but he had only a few opinions to prove it. But according to his announcements, this year he tries to have shape quite later. Only good results he has done this year were those on Wereldbekers, so I really don't know what should I think of him. |

Why do you think Stybar is not the good one? I agree that Bina is a talented guy, but so is Stybar, and unlike Bina he came to live and train here and worked hard to improve, while Bina had some mental problems(?) or wasnt motivated to train harder or was interested in other things.
And Stybar is also younger and has won more. |

By the way, Boom said in an interview after the race, that he is at only 75% of his maximum. As much as I like Boom, I don't believe that. I can believe he is not in top shape yet, but 75%? Yeah right... sure Lars! Whatever. |

Boom is usually not arrogant though. Not like Albert, who claims he was the best or with the best nearly every race, even when he isn't. Horrible, he's Boonen ²
Loved it when he was sure he would win the worlds U23 2 years ago and got his ass kicked horribly by Boom in Hooglede-Gits. |

Yeah Albert is a bit of a bad loser, but that's what makes him a winner imo

I know you don't want to hear that, but actuall hot favourite in Pijnacker is Joachim Parbo and of course Magnus Darvell.
I would wonder if they won't get lapped. |
