Albanian teams on european cups

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!

Its really simple though: zero risks means zero propability of gaining something.

I hate that every albanian on the face of the planet now thinks De Biasis methods are the golden script...
Skenderbeu is actually playing with more balls than De Biasi. They are actually trying to pass the ball around and have gotten themselves into a couple of good situations but end/product/shooting is lacking. The defenders are too weak and stupid though that's why Besiktas could have scored a couple.

We've had part-Romas like Lala and Bushi play for NT. I think Hysaj's dad might also be a magjup. Don't see the problem with Olayinka.

1) Arsenal always chokes after knockout rounds, and only make it there because of good seeding from years back. They got dsq by Monaco ffs.

2) The problem is not so much Arsenal vs. Besiktas, as it is DZ vs. Skenderbeu. The gap between DZ and Skenderbeu is way bigger than the gap between Arsenal and Besiktas.

That's why it is too much of an ask from them. The only "advantage" Skenderbeu has, is that Turkish teams are lethargic in Europe. But they have massive inferiority complex, so they can't take advantage.
These last two years theyve been knocked out by Bayern. Also not by much. Before that they faced Milan (a stronger milan than today) and before that by the best barca ever and possibly best team in history. I would hardly claim they choked. Overall theyve done quite good considering.

My argument is that there is a bigger gap between DZ and Arsenal than there is with Skenderbeu and Besiktas. Im watching the game and you can just see why the turks will never amount to anything. They have quality up to a certain level and that level isnt really that great. Some pressure from skenderbeu made them hoof the ball countless times. Makes you wonder why that is.

Do you really have such inferiority complex that you need to hang on to such stupid things as race? Leave that to the insecure western europeans.


I live with blue eyed blond haired swedes. Whats to envy?? What is it that you think will automatically turn better once our children turn white and pale??
I don't even have inferiority complex towards westerners who mix with yellow/black/brown/red race. I'm racist and nationalistic and sometimes i say things wich is normal to me, don't pay much attention and let's stick back to the topic.

Lol,

Josa should put bigger and stronger bodies in midfield, Skenderbeu's fullback s get beaten most of the time. Berisha and Latifi without running space seem useless.

Completely disagree. As I said, Turkish teams are unmotivated, but on an individual level no. DZ is one of the best talent teams in Europe. Modric, Kovacic, Halilovic, now they have Coric. Skenderbeu doesn't even come close to DZ.

Agreed, they looked better than albania thats for sure. I just meant that besiktas are there for the taking. If we only had more courage.. Olyianka (sp?) is really great up there, and Berisha despite being a complete tool is still a threat. Ive also seen our midfield have some good plays here and there. Im frustrated that they arent in it more.

Also tbh that goal was very weak, even the english commentator said so..

Sadiku, Aliji, Hysaj, Manaj, Curri, Gjasula , Kristi Marku, all have roma or ashkali roots. What to do...

So there is no problem with Olayinka then...He's only 19 too.

Modric is the only proven one out of those mentioned. And you're talking about history which is pretty pointless cause the players arsenal have had are far better than anything DZ ever produced and that includes Modric. But the point is the quality they possess now. The players they have NOW. I watched both our games vs DZ and even though there was a huge gap between these two teams I still thought that DZ would get blown to bits in CL and Im not alone in this opinion. Granted it was only one game vs arsneal, but thats the point. You go for it!
