I still think Vanmarcke is a proper talent, he's been the strongest rider in the final of Paris-Roubaix at least twice, and was the last person to be dropped by Sagan at Flanders last year. He lacked support at LottoNL-Jumbo, so I thought he'd go to a team where he would have that in the final 20 kms of Flanders and Roubaix. Instead he picked Cannondale.

I think phinney is different, he was young when it happened and was just coming into the good years when he's blossom. Not like the others there, he's far far more talented.
I hope he finds some success in the coming years. I really admire him.
Shame he didn't go to dimension data, he might have got on well there.
But yeah, cannondale are a bit of a laughing stock. I guess that's what having a small budget does, when bigger teams can buy up all the talent.
