I am 100% sure you didn't mean Vanmarcke there

I guess Adamou and Tamayo Martinez will leave without to much fuzz, while I expect to be a big fight over Vanmarcke. Just got a message regarding stat-increase for Vanmarcke. Currently unsure whether to train him as climberV1 or TimeTrial...
Good luck with your new venture, great jersey and looks like another great team to follow Vanmarcke will definitely prove to be a sizeable asset for you, I expect many coming for him. I suggest you sell him off to PT though, I'd make life easier for Baugnies next year

I'm not sure if he goes to PT. Without training, he might not be worth it.
Especially when many teams are interested -> potentially high fee, making him even less valuable with an already rather low points per € ratio.

Hehe, it was a joke
But yes, he is eligible for stat raise, and will be 79 Cobble and 76 flat after this season iirc

Well, thanks a lot for the kind words mate!
Yeah, luckily he will bring in some very much needed cash. Right now I am waiting and waiting too see what Meiji and Oz will do with their current roster. We're definitely interested in a lot of their riders.

3 Mongolians for Vanmarcke? 
He's a very interesting rider. Should Bpost promote he would be a huge asset in the PCT |

If I get a team next season I would be interested in Dylan Girdlestone.

I will be going in for Lo Cicero if he becomes available and i'm still PCT which is getting more unlikely to be honest though. |

There will be enough takers I'd guess. Pray for my survival and I'll take him

Hehe, yes, he could probably be to more use to managers who don't waste his race days in Volta a Portugal
If he is leaving for a transfer, or actually in any circumstance, I'll do my utmost to reduce his ridiculous wage bill

Yes, Lo Cicero can be interesting for many teams, if being cut on salary.

Only saw your post regarding new sponsors and riders' statuses now! 
All the Africans (Grmay, Chaabane, Abraha and especially Girdlestone) are of interest. Perhaps some buy in bulk and save deal is in order? Can't wait until transfer season!

The only riders I would have been interested in are top of your unavailable list, and judging by your new change of focus it looks like we might end up clashing again this transfer season.
Hopefully not too much but good luck with the new focus either way.

Aidan: There are some more managers interested in the Africans mentioned; however, I could be tempted to let them all leave together, just for the sake of the... coolness
That is however if the profits for selling them individually won't be that much higher, but of course there will be some kind of price reduce for a package deal.
Sammy: There are absolutely no chance whatsoever (of course money solves everything) that we forego our best asian riders to a rival. And yeah, I'm sure we'll meet quite a lot during the transfer season, but we'll also look at some middle eastern that may suit our new (secret) focus. Good luck to you as well, and hopefully you'll stick to those malayans and leave us alone with eastern asia |

It's mainly your 2 Indonesians that interest me, due to them being Sout East Asian and of the right ability for my squad.

Yeah, I do understand that, however, they've actually been two of my better performers this year and won't leave. I am still very sad when I realized Alizadeh joined your team last year, so as a revenge, I will be targeting all the best South East Asian riders as well 
(Actually I might target some of them, but obviously not because of revenge )

Wow that jersey is going to look unlike anyone else's, which is always nice. Also I love both the NC jerseys.
