That's the most annoying part.

If they are dominating or getting close then fair play but Poland hasn't done anything and have 2 goals out of nowhere.

Attack playing good, Cika with a good finish, and Manaj had a couple good shots. They're winning off converting 2 set pieces. That's it. They look terrible compared to how they are usually.

I've said this before, but our offence isn't even the worse part. It was always the midfield that couldn't create anything (and formation wasn't helping).

This game though, defence has shit its pants completely.

He’s having fun before retirement . Year 3 on the job and we still are leaky with a top defence by international standards .

Anyway let’s see if we can do the impossible. Would love to have brought Broja off the bench once the STs get tired but whatever .

Uzuni should def enter and some of the yellow carded midfielders must get subbed. I don’t know if Laçi or Ramadani are in form but eventually even Cekici could be an alternative.

No point in playing defensively anymore. It should be all out attack.

The thing is we didn't play defensively in the first half either

Trashi was better than Hysaj and this says it all. We had amazing start of the game, winning every duel on ground and air and when the team confidence was building up, Hysaj complicates everything by trying to do things that he can never do even for his club. We get two cheap yellow cards and the rest is history.

Our offense has been fine. We scored a goal and nearly scored again with Manaj's shot. What more can you ask when we have Midfield of Abrashi-Gjasula-Bare?

It is the defense that's been the problem. The defense should be our absolute strong point but we look like amateurs, the only shots on target they've had are from pretty far out set pieces, without those free-kicks, we're 1-0 up. They have played very poorly.

This 5 at the back is not helping and only confused our defenders more with tactics, we are getting jumbled up, 4 at the back is better.
