Omg cobbs you sound like ten years old Pokemon.
Contador is stage racer, not sprinter, not northern classics rider, maybe he can ride Liege or Amstel, but only maybe.
You say he just doesnt show his sprint ability,
man, i really cant imagine him winning from bunch or even from less bigger group.
Cancellara is the best all-arounder for now, but i think in years Boasson Hagen will be the best all rounder, he will has more experience on cobbles. Maybe he will be a better climber and if you sum their TT and sprint skills its equal(Cancellara beter ttrialer and Hagen better sprinter)
And Arvesen isnt great in even one of points, but he is better then average in all.

Contador is a better TT than Cancellara and Cancellara isn't a good climber or sprinter i reckon Contador would beat Cancellara in a sprint |

I hope your not serious now? Contador's sprint suck, and Cancellara is the best time triallist in the world. |

If he is the best TT in the world why did he get his ass handed to him by contador in TT in tour de France and in Paris Nice last stage It came down to a sprint between F Schleck Colom and Contador who started sprinting very late and allmost got colom on the line who isnt the worst sprinter in the peleton |

True. He's not the worst. I think he's the third worst.

Because the time trial came late in the race, and that benefits Contador because of his ability to recover, and get his ass handed to him? Dude, we're taking about a three seconds deficit.
and in Paris Nice last stage It came down to a sprint between F Schleck Colom and Contador who started sprinting very late and allmost got colom on the line who isnt the worst sprinter in the peleton
So you say Contador is a better sprinter than Cancellara because he outsprinted Fränk Schleck, one of the worst sprinters in the peloton? 
If you have problems recalling, Cancellara beat a whole bunch of sprinters on the third stage of the Tour 2007. |

If you have read what i wrote before i said hes doped
So, Contador is doped too.
and he got away he didnt stay in the peleton waiting for the sprint
True. But that still shows far better sprinting ability than losing a sprint to Colom. |

Contador isn't doped and if he tried he could get away from the peleton too but he reserves himself for the mountains and he would have won but he left it to late

If Cobbs writes another stupid replay then I'll add Contador suck's to my signature.
So ypu'll probably see it tomorrow.
My explanation why Contador sucks: Cobbs is his fan

And what makes you think that? Normally they try to TT their way to the line if they break away and Contador is a better TT than Cancellara |

Is taking it easy because you're recovering from an injury now classified as sucking? I wouldn't say a man who has had high placings in Paris-Roubaix and won it once suck because of one bad placing due to injury.

No he's not. And when guys breaks free from the pack, it's their ability to generate an awful lot of watts and their strenght that count. Contadors tiny legs aren't strong enough for such efforts. |

His tiny legs do a pretty good job climbing mountains and riding TT's if you ask me so why not staying away to the finish |
