I think part of their problem is that they don't know their best team. The Giro team this year significantly outperformed the Tour team, as every rider looked to be in good form and, tactically, they barely put a foot wrong all race. The same happened last year.
If I were Brailsford, I'd be trying to work out what they did right and replicate that for the Tour team next year. He promised a change in tactics for the Tour this year, but they reverted to the tactics of old, which clearly weren't going to trouble UAE and Pogacar.

You make good points but I just don't think there is room for then in their the best team. Unless Thomas wants to be a superdom
