Johan Bruyneel Strong Quotations

I feel like with have a really strong team but without Lance, it's going to take some time and some races to get used to him not being here. It will be big challenge for me. I think in a few years we will have another strong leader at the head of this team and I think we have a few that are here now and are ready to step up into that role.

Lance is confident he has a strong team and now it's up to him to be ready. His form is coming.

We didn't really look for somebody to replace him. For one there is nobody, not a strong leader like he was. Without him we have a very good team . . . but not the favorites.

We attacked all the time and I think we have to accept we were beaten by a very solid Landis. Floyd was just strong than we expected.

Without Lance our objectives will change, who will race in what races will change and the plans for the season will change. But we still have a very strong team without him. If you look at our 2005 season and take out what Lance accomplished, basically his Tour victory, this team had an amazing season. It was a season that any team would sign up for before it started.
