If we had Strakosha we would have been 0-0 at least. :x

I think Uzuni has been playing well.

We play better once we conceed but with this Turkish backline we should’ve done more. That Balaj goal against Walles is hurting us. Manaj is a must in front if Sadiku isn’t avaiable. At least Manaj can play with his feet and take defenders 1on 1.

I think Uzuni has been playing decently, at least his advances into the final third have been positive.
Decent half but one goal down, as we usually find ourselves through profiligacy.

Albania is definitely finishing this game with 10 men. lol

It's a struggle but the formation was shit to begin with. Memushaj is beyond washed, Ozuni is trying but he's not in the form he previously was, he;s making a lot of mistakes. Balaj is obviously a donkey up front with no skill or goal scoring threat.

Veseli, Gjimshiti, and Berisha are playing like Serie C players. Xhaka and Abrashi are fighting but very limited and bad on the ball.

It's a fucking joke.
It happens every time.
We play him once and he scores either a penalty or a fluke, then we play him for the next six months and he does absolutely shit. Just like Portugal hurt us for WCQ Wales is hurting us now.
Manaj is actually playing decently near the top of the Spanish Second. Would have been good to have him in. At least he's better than Balaj.

Uzuni is our only threat up front but bless the guy for at least having the energy and getting into the box. Really need Sadiku to save us right now.

He never got the credit he deserved on this forum at times imo.
He does a hard job with this sort of team, feeding on scraps constantly.
With the sort of chances we are creating right now he would be perfect for this game.
We focus too much on the new Hykas. Kosova too. Guys who can dribble, look flashy, create some cool looking half-assed chances, but have 0 end product.

What we need is dudes who come in clutch, in crucial, high pressure moments. Even if they're grimy and not flashy. Salihi and Sadiku have given more to this team than people realize.
It's not true, in Kosovo people are more focused in their players performances than in name of club which they play. Aliti and Rrahmani are playing in shitty clubs compare to others but if they play well everyone gives credit.
