    Whilst we still have the Vuelta to look forward to and the Worlds, pro teams must be eyeing up likely candidates for new signings.

    Cav to OPQ ?

    Nibali to Astana and Roche to Saxo bank so far.

    How about Sky swapping Cav for Boonen ? Plus i think they need another GC rider to go with Wiggo, Froome and possibly Uran.

    What do you reckon ?????????????

    I agree with TERatcliffe,
    I agree with TERatcliffe, Uran has plenty of chance in the current squad and given his and Henao’s team work and encouraging results at this year’s Giro I’m sure they’ll get the nod together for at least one of next year’s Grand Tour’s, either the Giro or the Vuelta depending on profile and what Wiggins wants to do.

    I’m sure that Wiggins will want to race the TdF as defending champion but he may not race to win if the course clearly suits Froome more. If that’s the case he may have eyes for one of the Giro or Vuelta and which he goes for will probably dictate how the rest of the squad plan their season.

    Uran has had chnaces though
    Uran has had chnaces though imo, had his chance at the Giro,a nd gets plenty of chances for classics wins where wiggins and froome never seem to ride (today for example)

    It wouldnt suprise me to see Uran leave tbh, he wont stick around too long if his chances are limited.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if Dombrowski goes to Sky, with him, Uran and Henao they’ll be well set for GC contenders for the next ten years or so.

    It’ll be interesting to see where the next Brit comes from though, surely with Sky’s main focus being getting Brit’s on the top steps of Grand Tour podiums they’ll need to plan ahead for when Froome starts to drop off around 2017. Or now that they’ve acheived their aim of a Brit winning the TdF are they now just another team that’ll take anyone of any nationality and no longer a British team?

    Sky have a dream team; and
    Sky have a dream team; and the loss of any of their top riders would detract from the teams prowess.

    I hope they support Bradley Wiggins in an attempt to win a second Tour de France? Froome needs more experience.

    Sky Team for 2013 tour should be >

    Bradley Wiggins

    Geraint Thomas

    Mark Cavendish

    Ian Stannard

    Swift

    Froome

    AND ??

    EBH should switch solely to
    EBH should switch solely to classics as he has the climbing ability and the sprint. He is a damn good TT’er so has the stamina as well.

    But i agree Sky need another couple of classics riders and another GC rider.

    Id like to see Sky sign Tony Gallopin, along with another Classics specialist as that is where they are lacking
