Albania at EURO 2016

I couldn't care less for rashica either. Aliji definitely earned it and it would have been shameful to leave his spot to shala

Wats funny is that he said xhim didnt play enough minutes with his club yet he takes roshi who has playd less mins then xhim. And you cant say well roshi has contributed to the nt and has playd cus hasnt xhim done the same thing?

I have to disagree on Roshi. Roshi runs like a headless chicken but he can be an impact sub. He gave the cross to Balaj in the Portugal and created our best chance vs. Denmark int he away game when he came on. You can count on Roshi to create one or two decent chances from the right when we're countering in the last 15 minutes.

I'm mad about Xhim as he started several games when Mavraj was injured and scored against Armenia. Now Veseli may be better but he has never played for us before. This is the most puzzling part. I'm glad Aliji is in though. Can't be mad about Rashica tbh.

I know i wouldn't drop roshi either no way just his speed alone you cant ignore. I took roshi as an example for what db said about xhims decision. My point is plako that you cant say that i didnt take X player cus he hasnt playd enough mins with his club yet you have other players who dont get any minutes either but you still decide to take them. Either you take every1 who contributed or take the ones that have playd well for their clubs. Simple man thats wat every nt does.

I agree, GDB's keeps using whatever rationale suits him best. I am just hoping this will blow over soon but it definitely left a bitter taste in me.

It'll blow over as soon as the tournament starts. Every NT has a couple of players that many believe deserved to get the call but did not... For instance, Karim freaking Benzema did not get capped for France, for the Euro Cup that will be held IN France (I know there's a different reason why he was kept away, but point is every NT makes decisions and others aren't always happy with the result). From the World Cup 2 years ago, Donovan was left home by Klinsmann who instead carried a couple of guys that had not played any minutes for the USMNT.

You lot who say you do not care about Rashica's are some real dumbasses.

Name me an Albanian who had a better season then him in the WHOLE world? Only Hysaj rivals him. And the priority should be on his competition which are Roshi and Gashi.

The whole logic of who contributed comes goes out the window when Gjm goes out for Veseli. It then changes to the coach called whoever he wanted and him not calling Rashica is the wprst decision he could of made.

[AlMadman]

It's OK guys, we are winning this whole thing.

I felt bad for Gjimi boy, but the coach has the final say, we should respect it. That video was pretty hard to watch. What is the point in sticking a camera and a mic in their faces? We know they are not happy, otherwise they shouldn't/wouldn't be footballers in the first place. Everyone wants to play/take part, especially when your NT makes it to a major tournament for the first time.

If Veseli enter at the 85th and score a goal from a corner kick everybody will praise De Biasi

but we already knew Rashica was out so you can't be mad about his exclusion. Gjimshiti on the other hand is harder to swallow.

People need to separate club from nt. I don't know or care how Rashica does at Vitesse(not that high of a level anyway) but based on his performances for the Albanian u-21 and senior team(although limited) he shouldn't be anywhere near France in June. They should send him to Vushtrri and take away his tv from him so he's not even allowed to watch it, that's how bad he has been in Albanian colors. I compare him to Hyka but at least Hyka was amazing for the Alb u-21.

I still can't believe he would bring Gym over Lila. If Lila is a great locker room guy, then bring him on as an assistant or something.

Lila is absolutely useless and a liability on the field. People only think he's good defensively because he's so shit in offence.
