Aliji is slow as a snail.

I really like his composure on the ball. He looks comfortable but physically he's so slow and weak.

That's odd because Aliji is noted for to be somewhat pacey...

That's the assumption because he's small so in theory he should be fast but he's even slower than Agolli.

Our fullbacks in general are not fast. Hysaj is not fast either.

To me Hysaj has good recovery speed. I've noticed a few times for the NT he was caught way too far up the field and was able to catch up to the attacker on the counter.

But as for Aliji maybe I'm wrong but I remember being impressed with his speed in the France game

Nah, Hysaj is slow. I remember Ljajic (who doesn't seem that fast) running with the ball faster than Hysaj without, both at Napoli and the NT game. He has good stamina and runs a lot, which is crucial for a fullback, but his acceleration is trash.

As for Aliji, I don't remember anything about his speed, but he struck me as better defensively than Agolli.

Yeah Aliji is pretty fast its just that hes not very strong for a fullback. I thought he played well in all his matches with us so far.

Salihi has said he wants to go to the Euros.

He deserves it after all this year if he had score against Portugal instead of that donkey that you hear more about his relationships rather than his goals he would be there for sure

How does he deserve it though?

Best Albanian goal scorer this season Croatia league = Albanian league + Dinamo Zagreb

I'm sure that Skenderbeu is at the same level as Rijeka and our saviors (Balaj,Roshi) aren't even starters there

Salihi has confidence and different characteristics from Cika who should be our starter for Euro

After France l don't wanna see anyone of them anymore cause l wait Rey,Donis, Ajeti jr and Rashica to step up

This might be the right moment for Salihi, Agolli , Cana and Bulku to say goodbye to the National team Not sure all the kids you mentioned are ready though.
