Stay at the front of peloton, hard at the start?

It seems to me that as your riders are placed randomly at the start, its hard to get the guy you want in the breakaway because is your guy is at the rear of the peloton he misses the break.

What is the best way to organise riders to get to the front/get in the break. I hate how my team spreads out in the peloton and doesnt group together.

No chance. Dot 99 and pray.

Take a suited guy close to the front, or hope your designated break rider makes it past the bunch in time to catch up with whoever already attacked.

I find putting them on relay gets them to the front easier than dot. This also chases down breaks if the guy from your team isn't the right guy on the front, or atleast makes the gap bridgeable.

Yeh generally i'll relay a guy to get him to the front, but as soon as you set keep position he drifts back, would i need to increase his effort to stay there?

I find it hard to get say 5 of my riders in a bunch like Team Sky does. Do I need to relay them all?

I set my riders to 85 effort and relay. Then when they reach the front, I tell them to stay where they are (the button next to the dot) and they always stay near the front until the pace is too much, but they would fall back anyway.

They should bunch together near the front then, but if you want to be the very head of the peloton you will need to relay.
