With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!
In some alternate universe Rashica, Bardhi, Muriqi, Rrahmani are all playing for Albania. But even in that alternate universe the bomberi Bekim Balaj is still starting.
Not only Roshi has played tougher competition but he always scored/assisted in games where Albania needed it the most. He practically qualified Albania to the Euros by starting it in Portugal and finishing it in Armenia.
Rashica scores it Germany because it's end-to end. They give 0 shits about defense there. It's all attack. It makes shit players like him look good.

It was a great assist but that was his only contribution for the entire Euro campaign. Quickly lost his spot to Andi Lila and rode the bench the entire campaign.
And please remind me, didn't Roshi fail in the bundesliga? Surely if it was so easy Roshi would have been made it in Germany but instead he rode the bench in the second bundesliga (not even the top division) just like every club he's been on.

It was a tougher Bundesliga when Roshi played there but it's irrelevant because we're talking about NT contributions and Rashica will never come close to Roshi's productivity for the NT. Roshi is the most clutch player to ever play for Albania. Even when Rashica played for the Alb u-21 he was literally outclassed by Endri Cekici. He continues his lackluster NT career with Kosovo.... Some players are just not meant for international soccer and some are.

Ok, now we're making excuses for Roshi.
And what's this clutch lol? Roshi never became a key contributor for the NT until Panucci was hired and the team was so bad under Panucci that any decent performance by any player made them look twice as good. Roshi for the longest time was considered a headless chicken because he was all pace, he would get by a defender and blast a cross to his garden in Fier (That was literally the meme we'd say about him ). Roshi was so clutch that he let France score on him twice in the first 10 minutes because he felt bad for them
^ from start to finish this last statement is complete bollocks..”Roshi let france score twice on him“ this guy says...hahahahah since when was roshi a defender? There are positions for a reason buddy this isn’t a video game. Roshi is our mvp every time he steps on the pitch and it didn’t just start “when panucci came”. Like dallku said he started it in Portugal and finished it in Armenia...
I feel some are overrating Roshi while others are underrating him. He is what he is, which is very average even for Albania's standards. He'd have his moments like the Portugal game, but would have like 3 straight games where nobody knew what he was actually doing.
And this overdone bias is starting to get annoying btw. Grow up guys lol
