Introducing “young talents” got us a superb 2-2 draw against Andorra a short while back, among many other promising results these past few years.

To put things into perspective, the last time the robust NT of andorra scored 2 goals was in a 2-0 win over San Marino in February of 2017. Before that, the second to last time they managed this feat was 18 years ago in a 2-0 win over Albania in April of 2002... The moral of the story here is that our “young talents” couldnt beat my local bin men, and a valiant effort from veteran players will be needed to best even the weakest of opponents.

Unlike Kosovo and North Macedonia who are trending up, Albania has been on a nose dive and no victory is guaranteed at this point, as our previous results have shown.

Lol, Albania might actually even have a chance to qualify for a WC during our lifetime now. And you will love Kosovo beating Greece.

You can’t qualify to WC through nations league , that’s why Dallku is right....we could use it only for going up in our league or test all youngsters...

It is linked to the WC a little bit but no where near the level of the Euros . I’d hate for us to qualify for 2022 anyway as it’s in Qatar .

Like I said this competition doesn’t matter and I’d rather us be in group c as when it is linked to euro 2024 we get an easy group like Kosove did so that’s why I say play youngsters and treat it like Friendlies
