So much debate over Cikalleshi. Cikalleshi is not the striker to take Albania to the next level, only Broja is. We should be more concerned with how to get the best out of Broja, and not about who partners him. Cika was useful for a while against C level competition but his time is up.

Top 20 scorer in the Turkish league? Is that really that impressive?

Same league where Vedat Muriqi looked like the second coming of Ibrahimovic btw.

But it's ok to admit that players age and aren't as effective. Especially players like Cika who never played in a top league age much worse than others.

Historically Albania always had trouble "letting players go". From Duro, Skela, Lala, to Bulku, Balaj and now Roshi, Cikalleshi, etc...
Cikalleshi is currently having what is arguably the biggest season of his career. Top 20 league scorers, while playing for the 2nd best team, the Cinderella story of the league.

He has benched Ahmed Maghoub, who has a ton of experience in Europe, having played for Olympiakos and some of the strongest Portuguese teams. That guy is no scrub..

Turkey is a retirement league like the MLS. That's where old and washed up top leaguers go to get their last pay check before they call it career.

Being #17 in the top goal scorer list in Turkey is not the brag you think it is.

I still remember the media and FSHF hierarchy revolting when Panucci dropped him. What other country would throw a mutiny for a journeyman in the Turkish first and second divisions? He's got some sway with in FSHF. Maybe they like him because he's a local boy or maybe he's got some friends in high places.

He's the media's favorite guy too.

He was one of the best players according to Panorama. (same rating as Broja and higher than Djimsiti) :lol2:

Balaj scores every ~289 minutes for Albania, Cikalleshi smashes that.

A segment of Albanian fans might find it hard to understand and appreciate the physical aspect of the game. Cikalleshi is a big guy, who may look a bit cumbersome to people, but he is super strong and effective.

Viewers like flashy dribbles and tiki-taka passing..

Only on this forum will you find hate for Cikalleshi.

Pairing with Broja looked physically dominant at Spain. Reminded me a lot of the Lewandowski and Buksa combo that gave us a great deal of problems in qualifiers.

Not true. Cika has been getting praised on this forum for positive performances.

But when he's getting praised for literally just existing we have to call it out. This is the bullshit that got Bekim Balaj playing in the NT for many years undeserved.

This is Broja's performance against Spain. I challenge anyone to find a clip of Cika in this game doing ONE thing right. One duel won, one pass, one time he stole a ball.. and even doing anything basic. Dude is getting praised for just existing.
