As long as Sagan can stay fit this is his for the next x amount of years, but if something were to happen to him who would win Green?

Can't be as straightforward as Kittel can it, as he's more 1 dimensional than Cav was in his pomp.

Greipel? Degenkolb? Kristoff?

    Alaphilippe (assuming of course that he isn't embroiled in a fight for yellow as Carlton would have us expect).

    Groenewegen.

    OK - probably not this year, but before long...

    But he won't be competing in the sprint stages which is a necessity.

    I think Matthews could have a good crack at it.

    +1 for matthews, or caleb ewan or gaviria? all three can sprint well but climbs better than the pure pure sprinters

    I'd class Caleb in the pure sprinter category for now, I don't think there is much evidence of his being able to climb any better than say Kittel.

    Matthews, he's likely to finish the tour where others will drop out in the mountains. (Plus I put my £10 free sky bet on him getting a top 3 in the classification...)

    Matthews will have this as a priority I reckon he's blooming for a move to a bigger team and needs some, bling, to get more attention
    Turned out nice again!
