@talkaboutlufcv2 They got 10pts from the absolutely shite bottom 3 last season too. Could've easily got less than 38 if the worst teams were more competitive.

Spurs in the last two seasons have been a club in disarray, and this might be the season that they pay for it.
In the last two seasons they’ve earned 69 pts from 71 games and lost 38, a whole seasons worth of games 🤯
Really don’t see how they get out of this. #LUFC

@talkaboutlufcv2 @OptaAnalyst Get super Archie Gray back in

Back when Strade parcours were utter perfection.

This will always be the greatest top 7 in the history of Strade Bianche. #StradeBianche

We played Man City, Villa, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Newcastle at SJP in the last 8. We played Liverpool and Man U in the 2 games before that and we STILL stayed out of the relegation zone. These games below now coming up too. But whatever makes you guys feel better, I guess
Central@WestHam_Central
West Ham have a better record over the past 8 games than all of our relegation rivals.

@friebos Honestly think it’s best chance to win a monument vs Pog, because it’s more likely to have other race dynamics than Liege or Lombardy (where he’s guaranteed to be 1v1 on a hill).
Eg. Stuyven-style while Pog looks at VDP.
English
Remco & Sanremo. Someone explain to me why he‘s never done it & why it wouldn‘t work.
English
@Watts_Occurring gents. Similar vein to your last pod so wondered what you think…
I reckon 3 people managed to beat Pog Mano a Mano in a road race last year: Van der Poel (MSR, P-R & TdF S2), Skjelmose (AGR) & Van Aert (TdF S21).
Who d’you think could manage it this year?

@Uber
Why don’t you atleast tell me that my taxi is not coming so I can arrange something else ?????????

@friebos I don’t think there are legions of pole-vault fans out there, but yes they are definitely bored
English
Semi-serious question: are there legions of pole-vault fans out there complaining that Mondo Duplantis's domination is boring?

@nedboulting Was looking at road races/stages & GCs that he had actually tried to win in the last 2 years and I make it:
56 races, 12 failures & 44 successes - a 79% win rate
…
4x Alpecin wins, 2x Quebec, 4x TdF stages, 1x Giro stage, 1x Catalunya stage
That’s IT!
English
@CafeRoubaix 2024/25 races/stages/GCs that Pog has tried to win:
Tried 56 times, failed 12 times (79% win)
Exclude MSR/PR/Montreal, where he’s not the favourite (so actually worth watching):
Tried 51, failed 7 (86% win)
If it’s a race that suits him, it’s just not worth watching.
English
@tomdanielson Personally don’t find that interesting but even if you do - once he’s done his risky attack, the remainder of the race is simply not worth watching.
I’ve wasted hours of my life watching Pogacar ride solo in the hope that something interesting might happen
English
You do realize he literally risked it on the downhill so much that the riders behind him gave him a gap to be safe. This is how he got the initial gap. So yes, he puts on a show by taking risks, and he definitely doesn’t have to.
Kristian Holgersen@KristianHolger1
@tomdanielson Going solo minimizes the risk of crashing and makes you less vulnerable to mechanicals. In a sprint, he could be boxed in. When you are able to just ride away from everyone, attacking is not a particularly risky option.
English
@faustocoppi60 He’s the greatest cyclist of all time, obviously his competitors aren’t going to work with him or try to beat him at his own game
English
Tadej Pogacar on Eurosport: "I was thinking that maybe Jonas wanted to win this stage also but he was just holding to my wheel." 💁♂️

Insaaaaane amount of adverts on @ITV Tour de France coverage 👎

@SkyBet literally can’t even open a list of tennis matches on your new app 👍

That is why there is no footage of Vingegaard crashing at Paris-Nice. Because he didnt. He foresaw he'd need to go above Z3 so he abandoned the race instead.
He only goes Z4 at the bottom of Hautacam whilst Pogi was busy racing some random classics.
Elias@Elias_TVL
@EchelonsHub Exactly, Tadej has been tiring himself out the past year, Jonas has not entered Z3 once in order to build his base.
English
@Narvaezismo @wielervrspllng Just like MVDP & Philipsen last year- if both Pog & Narvaez make it over the Poggio, then Pog should work for Narváez.
Not sure how happy Pog would be with that though!!
English
@wielervrspllng @JamesAnthoney3 Narvaez beat the man with the chance. Why couldn't he?🤣
English
#MilanoSanRemo Wonder what UAE will do in terms of roles of the riders. Personally I would stick with Wellens as lead out. Leave Narvaez at home. UAE needs a strong rouleur between Cipressa and Poggio to keep the pace going. That will be hard after a hard Cipressa…..
