Albania vs France (Match Thread)

Where is Sadiku and Kace? Our two best attackers..... I guess we can bunker against France and have Balaj get a volley again idk.

Sadiku just had his presentation at Malaga lol.
I'm assuming they just left him out because he wouldn't miss the NT for a new club press conference

Actually excited for this one. Our team is complete and utter trash, but I like watching us vs. France! A lot of the time it's 1-2 goal difference.

What's up with our managers these past 3 years making the same mistakes in their lineup choices. How many times are we gonna put Balaj and Cikaleshi out there and realize that they aren't good enough. At this point I think someone like Shkrutaj from Kukesi will be a better call up then Balaj.

I like playing with three in the back because it suits our best position and our future players (since we seem to have decent CB's coming up). But when we play with three in the back and with three pitbulls in the midfield we need to have pacey players in the final third as our only decent chance at scoring will be on counters and a way to relive pressure defensively, we're gonna be bunkered in our goal early and often if there's no outlets to release pressure.

With that current lineup the only way Balaj and Cika can score is on point blank headers and we simply won't have the ability to control the ball or to get in perfect crosses for them to score. The only player who'll be able to put in a cross will be Lenjani and he may not even start. Is Reja really trying to build a team around whipping in crosses? This is a match for guys like Roshi, Uzuini, and Lenjani. Playing with Balaj and Cika is like playing with 9 men.

Where the hell is Roshi.

The best Albania match I've ever watched is France 1-1 Albania a couple years ago. I believe Mavraj scored on that one.

But that was one of the few times Albania played absolutely fearless. It was like they were angry and didn't respect France. That was a better match than the actual victory over France in Elbasan imo.

One of the few times we actually played good teams and treated them like real humans rather than treating them like a team of genetically modified 7 foot tall robots who play football perfectly

This is gonna get ugly 4-0 France.

[Dallku]

Balaj, Ramadani, Bare all starting

In Reja i trust, we might lose but we will have decent game.
