Not me? Right?
I mean, Greipel is most likely hungry for a point jersey or a stage win right? So theirfor i belive that he will start the Vuelta 
Agree?

a not so good TDF?
is 5 stage wins not good enough for you then?
also, after a no-show at the TDF (for health reasons) i would think that Kirchen would be a good GC contender for the VaE (health permitting)

I doubt that kirchen will reach his old level again, ever.
That thought, however, makes me really sad :'(

For me the greatest thing of this year's Vuelta is absence of Valverde, he was the reason i hated the last year edition
So this year looking for Frank, Menchov, Anton and young Liquigas duo battle
Mosquera is great climber but he will probably loose a ton of time in long TT and something in TTT (Menchov will be 5 minutes better)
Go Roman!

Sanchez won't ride and Menchov won't win (tour took too much out of them both)
Expect a fresher man to win. Anton, F.Schleck, Mosquera, Nibali, etc...
I suppose you are right.
In that case I think maybe Nibali could win. |

He probably did read your post. Hence the confusion.

Yeah it looked like you meant that Cav had a bad tour, and as such Griepel (or Ciolek as you corrected it to) will be hungry for something because Cav isn't at the top of his form. |

Andy Schleck is going to the Vuelta but not racing anything else in the meantime.
Expect the same as last year: awful performance followed by retirement.

Fränk said he'll help his brother in the Vuelta. I fail at seeing how to help someone to do nothing, though. |

Again? Pauwels was choosen in the Tour insteed of him. And Pauwels didn't do squat! The Sky managment most be high or something. Arvesen is such a better rider then Pauwels.....!

I ment because of Cioleks bad TDF, he would be hungry in the Vuelta.
