Injury prone and regression. Shame his stint with the NT was so short because he had a bit of talent. He was probably the best and most dangerous player in the previous WCQ.

Rama was our best attacking player for the 2014 WC qualifiers. He had talent that we didn't have at the time and still don't have. Very good dribbler and had the ability to beat defenders on a consistent basis, very good at cutting in as well. He's like a bad version of CR 7. Lazy defender though

He hasn't played much at his club this year and his club play has been on the downwards since he left Valladoid. Injuries and commitment seems to be his issue. I think his current club was even trying him out as forward for a while.

Was definitely the best. I remember in one game, i can't remember the exact game maybe Iceland at home, Rama and Kaçe were looking to pass to eachother non stop as nobody in the team was on their level technically. Everytime someone else got the ball it slowed down play and most times they couldn't string two passes together so they just looked for eachother.

That was against Cyprus away and yeah, Rama was a standout attacker throughout those qualifiers. The only one who could create something out of nothing basically.

With Rama and Rashica on the wings, along with Kace in the centre Albania would easily beat Switzerland, not to mention the likes of Hysaj, Cana, Mavraj to help out. Although Rama may not deserve to be called up, if he starts playing regularly he is a much a better candidate then shala and gashi who are slow as f*** and cannot take opponents one on one.

C'mon man we can't easily beat any team in Europe today, except for Andorra and San Marino.

Rama is finished and tbh a huge reason he was a standout during those WC qualifiers was because the likes of Vila, Cani were such anti-footballers that anyone with any semi decent technique looked like Messi compared to them.

But Albania does need wingers who can take on players and make things happen on their own. With our bunker style of play we need the offensive players to go into beast mode here and there, otherwise the team will be extremely easy to defend like it is right now. Why is Roshi so useful? He's an awful player in reality but he's fast and sometimes he has a few of those moments where he can create a bit of space.. Imagine if we had an upgrade over Roshi.
