Well, there definitely would not be any leadership issues!

Have you looked at their squad for next season? That could even work with their amount of nice cheap talents, and as long as he falls below 700k wage (with the loan cap he only has to pay 10 riders)...the biggest problem would be the transfer fee.

Maybe. But in terms of viability and likelihood of success, it's about as practical as me wanting Sicard with a PCT cap. |

Oh he would have 38 race days...enough to wreck the division, he could probably get 75% of the points you need to promote alone.

Are you sure it's a good idea to tag the riders in your tweets?

Psst. Don't say anything. Perhaps an incident like Dippofix had repeats ...

That said, this is going to be the last season for team in famous and feared green jersey.
Team, found and built from scratch in 2011, was concentrated mainly on sprints and cobble classics entire period. With moving away from Belgium to Spanish market, it won´t be possible to focus primarily on cobbles anymore. "After disbanding of team Santander, huge gap appeared on Spanish market and we decided to be one of players raising our activity there", GM Beagle said. As a result, Belgian superstar Tom Boonen will be transferred out, most likely together with his main helpers as well. GM also denied ("Never say never, but it´s not topic of the day") all speculations regarding to arrival of Kiwi monster Sam Bewley. On the contrary, after failing in German Championship, signing of few German blood seems to be very likely.
Face of the team will fundamentally change, let´s hope not only towards doom!

Well, well, well. Transfer season wouldn't be any fun without a bidding competitor.

Will be odd to see a peloton without the Pokerstars green, but very cool for such an established team to suddenly switch to a completely different market. Makes a lot of sense of course. Interesting to see how Spanish you can get.
I guess you'd had enough of sprints, and wanted to win some mountainous races instead?

Better concentrate on the Spanish and leave the Germans to other teams.
And trade Boonen to PT please. |

Definitely not. Although without Boonen, I´d like to have strong sprinter team built around Mohs/Degenkolb. Winning of any mountainous race would be cool (and new experience for me), but where to find money for those Spanish beasts? 
However, without outstanding cobble squad, I won´t be podium PT contender anymore. At least not in 2015!

In 2015, teams´ main nationality is still German
Best offer (hopefully from PCT) wins!!!

Well, we will see. How you say - never say never with that Bewley guy. It will be really interesting for me to see what you are going to do with your team.
