Bring back Brailsford. Not sure what issue is now but the DS are very weak and appear not to be able to manage people very well like Brailsford could and get the best from the team . Me thinks Ineos may jump ship with sponsorship.
Cant help but think Hayter will be a misfit wherever he goes. I can see the annoyed with him statements from Patrick already. As for INEOS well who knows what's going on - they appear rudderless without leadership.
Narvarez, Hayter out.......Jungels, Langellotti in. Even a blind man can see Ineos are going one way and i`ts not up.
I don't think they are on the up! More flat-lining I would say. Naravez a loss yes but how do you compete with UAE money? Hayter no big loss, had a poor last two years. One or two younger talents in the squad such as Tarling and August but they need two or three years more to have any chance of challenging for a GT again.
Think they need to invest in youth. Would you look at any British talents like Poole, olney or Blackmore?
Rumour has it that they will sign Sam Watson 22 from FDJ. They also have a couple of young Danish 18 year olds coming . they already have AJ August who looks like the real dea;. What they don't have is a rider to challenge Pog, Jonas and Remco so it might take a few years! They signed Leo hayter 23 off the back of his baby Giro win but he has not developed and even gone backwards.
Yeah I agree, Leo has not been brilliant. Probably should have gone for gloag, lenny or Cian to be fair. I think Bigham is now leaving aswell due to lack of leadership and direction, that tells you a lot. Recent signings of oscar and foss also tell you not many believe in the project now. Real shame. Not really sure what we can do?
Seems fair enough. Ethan needs a fresh start and a hard DS who won't allow him to ride at the back. I think he would make a great mid mountain support rider though. No real loss to INEOS but maybe a great pickup for Soudal.
