Blah blah blah.
AC did his talking in the mountains and the TT's. What more do you want him to do?
If wants to gloat at this point about winning despite his team, then he should go ahead and do so. If he chooses to be less obnoxious about it, then so be it. Good on him either way.
BTW, does anyone know if he's going to defend his Vuelta title this year?
