If that really is the formation then it is getting worse by the game. Kaçe being the only midfielder not to start at the Euros is unbelievable. Ohh myyy if Kukeli starts again at CM, he was atrocious, him and Roshi rivaled eachother for worst player on the pitch.

Seems like he will use Lila to bunker and hold tight the 0:0 draw . Ajeti is good in air , i'm more worried getting goals from open play as they will be raping Agolli's flank with Payet . Kace and Roshi on bench are a good choice , Roshi had a very low accuracy against the Swiss and Ukraine . He isn't the player he used to be for us , def out of fit. Kace would be out of place with Pogba winning 100% of the areal duels , should bring him and Xhaka at the Romania match. Xhaka was left out for disciplinary reasons.

I don't understand why he brings Ajeti and Veseli if he's just going to start kukeli. I don't have a problem with it as such but at least leave another defender at home and bring another attacker. We could of used Avdijaj ot Rashica here.

What disciplinary reasons because he got upset when he was taken off ?

Sadiku



Makes much more sense than the previous rumored one with Kace-Memushaj playing together. That would've been suicide vs France and GDB does not take risks like that at friendlies nevermind at this stage lol.

Of course I hate Lila at that position but Roshi is more suited to come from the bench.

Gashi needs to be Sadiku's sub IMO. They both make runs trying to beat the offside trap which is our highest chance of scoring from open play. In this system maybe they are more suited than a stiff like Cikalleshi.

I'm guessing Xhaka is getting "punished" for his reaction after getting subbed out. You know how De Biasi is but maybe he's resting him for Romania too. Kace doesn't appear to be fit but I'd rather have him play against Romania

I'm scared of Ajeti but he has performed well for the NT before. This time he needs to have the performance of his life because he will be tested.
Same line up as the one when we played them in 2014 for 1-1 draw. Don't think we will be as lucky this time tho I am expecting a 2-0 or 3-0 loss.

He gave Sadiku the assist vs. Ukraine, and created 1-2 good chances vs. Switzerland. In both of those games, we were on the offensive. Ukraine was parking, while Switzerland scored early and we had to bring the game to them.

Roshi plays on the counter. He thrives on games like France. That's the whole point of bringing him here. Pairing him against a slow ass grandpa Evra would be a brilliant move because it highlights his pace/physicality, but too bad DB is too stupid to realize that.

Supposedly that article states that France is going to rest Pogba and Griezmann vs us. This could actually be our chance if true. Cana is a hero for all that he's done but this point in his career is replaceable talent wise. If we can just replicate the defensive performance we had vs Switzerland then I think this can be a very favorable result for us. This time we'll be playing with a full squad so I hope the team stays strong and resilient and more importantly convert the chances they get!

Yeah they are taking out Pogba and Griezman for Matrial and Conman and shifting Payet to number 10. That is much worse for us as now they have more dribblers and faster players on the pitch. Martial and Conman will run at the defence like Joshua King did.

Kukeli at CM again after his abysmal performance against Swiss is unbelievable.

Do u think Rashica will still comitte to Albania, considering that he was dropped and now has the option to chose between Albania and Kosova

Djimsiti and Rrahmani may stick with us. While Rashica hasn't posted a single picture with Albania's icon yet.
