Kosova National Team [General topic]

[Dallku]

Would switch Veseli anyday for Rrahmani or Rashica.

Rashica yes.

Not gonna lie, Rashica looked good against both Croatia and Ukraine(although wasn't perfect and defensively he sucks). He was a constant threat when he had the ball though.

Rrahmani on the other hand is a disaster. No thanks.

Gdb totally burned Kosova by capping Veseli. He could've been a good addition.

Loret Sadiku seemed promising, whatever happened to him.

Ardian Ismajli is a cb that plays in Croatia for Hajduk Split.

Sadiku is good and solid and is part of the team, but apparently was injured so he couldn't play against the Croats and Ukrainians. Now if they manage to get Hadergjonaj that's amazing for the team. Rrahmani can play well with Sadiku I think and the last thing we need is a better left back than Paçarada. Oh yeah, a better keeper than Ujkani too, but that's not going to happen... I don't think there's any decent Albanian keepers which I know off in Europe.

Albania and Gjimshiti got burned worse by that callup.

Gjimshiti yes. Albania long term? Don't think so! Maybe at the moment Veseli won't contribute for Albania as he would for Kosova. He has always been rated highly though and to me he has a higher ceiling compared to Gjim or Ajeti. Veseli can play in each of the back four positions, has speed and is very good with the ball.

He's at a very good club now, where he can grow as a defender. Hopefully he won't turn out to be a jack of all trades, but masters as a cb at Empoli.

I got a feeling Had is waiting for a Swiss call. Ujkani is a liability, but there's no one better right now.

And who's idea was to ignore Fatos Beciraj should be fired.

[Migjeni]

I don't think he's got a chance as of right now, so it'll probably be the same story as with Abrashi for him.

I've never understood the Beciraj-thing. Was he ever approached by the Albanian FA? And if not - why didn't Kosova's FA approach him?

- But still, watching him play for those Serbs today made me feel sick. Montenegro is almost the same shit as Serbia. He's a good player, but it's annoying that he would ever accept to represent them. Oh well.
Probably they thought Besart Berisha was enough. Lol.

Albania at the Euros too. Veseli lost Griezman in the first France goal.

Rashica is not 18. He is 20.

Someone said soon Kosova will have Avdijaj, really? 6-0 and 3-0 in the space of four days. You think players are gonna keep coming. Do you remember what was happeing when Albania was a poor side? Yeah, Kosova are finished with their 'strong recruiting'.

Now when a player makes the 'tough decision' of whether to play for the country they were raised in or for their atdhe, the decision making process has changed. Say an Albanian raised in London from Prishtinë. He has the choice to play for England, or go to the atdhe side. He chooses go to the atdhe side. Now he looks at the two options, Albania has a strong team and is actually winning games like never before, Kosova is being treated like Luxemburg as it is bottom of its group and conceded 9 goals and scored none last week. Now also this kid by picking Albania would play for the Albanian flag, anthem, and would represent Albanians world wide. This kid would also know that all Albanians from Kosovë would support him regardless of who he choose so why not choose the more successful team? This decision is no longer hard, it was hard when they said Kosova was getting Xhaka, Shaqiri, Januzaj ect and also the poor results also make it easier. The blue kit and lara lara flag also make it easier.

[Leandro]

they will lock them up from their mother's tit. ingenius callup tactic

on a more serious side, i dont think kosova is finished. some kosovars do not feel very albanian. or some might go to kosova thinking they'd get more playing time and they could develop later to better players than what albania has. take migjeni here for example, you think he'd play for kosova or albania?

Beqiraj was offered to Teuta Durres but they don't wanted to even test him, Bylis wanted him but player not wanted to live in Ballsh. He never was valued even in his home city. He had troubles at Besa Peje when he moved from Shqiponja ( ekipi i fshatareve) because most of coaches was qytetar and even players didn't passed him ball because most of them was also qytetar. It is easy to judge but he was playing for 500 euros a month and Montenegro offered him possibility to play with players with Jovetic, Savic and launched him in international football.

Thanks for clearing that up. As I mentioned, I've never known what happened with him. And maybe I'm talking from the comfort of not being in difficult circumstances, but I wouldn't have played for the Serbs (Montenegro). But yeah, they're probably the reason he's done well.
