Road to Russia WC 2018 !

With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!

No way Macedonia is slightly above us. We would crush them.

You never know.If we play against them as favorites and somehow won't win,you'll see people here trashtalking the NT because they'd have lost or have a draw as well.

I used think think like that too but this team has been able to manage to get results now against poorer teams. 10 years ago I'd have said we'd be losing against Macedonia. But the ball is round so you're right in that respect, you never know.

Macedonia is basically Armenia from the last qualifiers. Some nice attacking players but lacking that core and defensive stability. I think Albania will win against them.

Well I don't think that the point is to focus on winning FYR,but how we'll manage to get results from Spain/Italy.Taking into account that more or less Spain and Italy we'll have some draws when they'll play each other,we firstly need to pull a good fight in our home court against Italy.Considering the fact that only one team will qualify automatically,this time chances are limited-non-existent I would say-,even if we make it to the playoffs which is rather than impossible.People don't need to overreact when this happens,and got mind-blinding.The real power of this team is the 4th place,ranking with the player's quality or 3rd if we upset Israel.

Wtf 4th place? Israel isn't some world class side buddy. We can definitely beat them.

De Biasi is interested in Lorenc Trashi.

He's pretty much the typical De Biasi player. No technique, warrior spirit, "bulldog".

Valon Berisha mentioned Trashi as the player who impressed him the most during the CL qualifiers.
