Slim pickings for Fabian?
Was fiddling around with my team for ages until I realised there's almost no point having Cancellara in until stage 20. Even he can't really pull 2 Schlecks to victory in a TTT and the early stages seem to be more suitable for Voeckler/Gilbert types. Or is Fabian a dark horse on the stages everyone expects Gilbert to win?
PS - Galimzyanov & Rojas. You'll thank me later!

First week i'm plumping for sprinters and breakaway specialists. . . . . and then start thinking about GC contenders and climbers in week 2. . . . so Cav will have to wait
I wouldn't rule out Cancellara doing something spectacular in the first week. But there's no getting away from it, he's expensive - I reckon you'll get much more bang for your buck (or oomph for your euro or indeed fizz for your francs) by looking elsewhere.
seems as if u must have seen my team
nope, i'd tend to agree. unless they've done a *lot* of work on their TTT i wouldn't expect leopard trek to be that near the top of the pile. he's very much going to be working for the schleck boys this year i'd say
You are right with Cancellara. I think I take Hesjedal and Boasson Hagen as All-rounders.
Galimzyanov is in my team already. Rojas is a good choice too but too expensive for me.
