Why would sanchez want to he a support rider.
Because he's a long way past his peak and no longer capable of competing with the best?

Btw. I think Belkin needs a sprinter. A young dutch sorinter like bos or van hummel would be good. Or degenkobl or kittel. I think degenkold would be hapoy o leave skil and became a leading sprinter and not lead out to kittel.
Why wouldn't Degenkolb be happy? At Argos, he gets to lead basically wherever he wants (bar some of Kittel's goals). I can't think of many other WT teams that could give him the same freedom.
EDIT: In short, what Spilak said

Either way. Belkin need a sprinter. Argos is probably becoming one of the strongest sprinting teams. They beat cavenfish and greupul quite a few times in the tour. Including champs elysees  |

Agreed, Argos has a strong sprinting team.
Argos' problem though is that they don't have other strenghts, mostly sprinting(some hills & TT maybe).
They'll have a huge amount of talent next year(this year already) though.

Haga, Craddock & Olivier, all big talents, will join them next season.
They already have Dumoulin, Sinkeldam, Barguil, Ludvigsson & Arndt, so, a lot of talent.
Cav is at Omega-Pharma

I dont think going to sky was very smart from cavendish. I think Goss and Kittel are better than graypul and cavendiah. Even sagan is better in my opinion. Akd sagan can climb a bit as well thats why he won green. |

Goss? Show me 2 results of this season that Goss is (still) among the 3 best sprinters of the world. Just 2, shouldn't be too hard for you if he's that good
Nah, Goss isn't really good anymore for some reason. He wouldn't make the Top 7 on a best-sprinters list, to me. (No, I won't make a list for you )
Cav & Greipel are still among the best 3(along with Kittel), though which sequence can be argued.

Farrar? Have you watched any races during the past two years? 
Watching the Tour proved that Cav, Greipel, Kittel and (to an extent) Sagan are a long way ahead of everyone else.

The days when petachi, farrar, freire, hushovd (not sure, about him now?) were good days.
And what has happened to Matti Breschel? What team is he in? |

Graypul and Cavendiah? Are you the Cyanide-employee who gives those names for the official release?

Decent. Was very good last year, now still okay, just wasn't as strong in the cobbled this year as Roubaix last year. Still at Belkin.
You know what?
Here, it's a very useful site for you, you can search for results and teams of every (professional) rider in the world.

One transfer that has been disappointing is Mark Renshaw. I thought he would managae victories in the gts as he was up there with Cavendish when he was lead out man. |

I'm still curious to see how the three young French sprinters (Bouhanni, Démare, Coquard) perform against those three or four you mentioned.
Coquard came second to Cav in Denmark, Démare hasn't sprinted against any of those this season (I think ?), Bouhanni started from too far at the first (was it the 2nd ?) Giro stage and did nothing during the rest of his Giro and his Tour.
Since Démare beat Greipel and a hanful of second tier sprinters in Hamburg last year, and Cavendish seems to have lost some speed, at least relatively, I'd say they should be rather close to Cav/Greipel/Kittle. Degenkolb belongs there too, I reckon. |

BMC will have insane TTT lineup with possibly riders like TVG, Phinney, Velits and others.
Peter Velits confirmed that Martin won't join BMC |
