you can watch videos (links at the bottom). Sastre explains why CSC didn't chase earlier.

Is there any doubt, however, that Riis is the best manager? When you compare CSC's fortunes to Discovery's.

Why do you say that? What has CSC done? They have Sastre and a stage winner in Schleck. Discovery has a stage winner but nobody that has shown the form of sastre. Johann may be overrated in the same way Phil Jackson is overrated, but Riis isn't showing me anything that makes me think he is clearly better. Indeed, what about today? CSC waited far too long to chase Landis, eh? I'm not convinced Riis is any better than anyone else.
