Martial of Man Utd is just as lethal as Benzema. Personally I would drop Shala, Lila and Veseli. In Shala position, Rashica and Lenjani can play, in Lillas position Hysaj and Djimsiti can play in that role as evident against Denmark, same goes with Veseli.

Rashica is definitely in the extended squad. I just spoke to Altin Lala aswell and he confirmed this. He said it is now up to De Biasi if he makes him part of the official squad.

The extended squad play the friendlies so Rashica can make an impression in training and the games, he will show vs Qatar when we attack non stop how much better then Roshi he is.

I also spoke to one of Rashica's mates a few days ago and he confirmed Rashica will remain with Albania. We have a really good player mentally and physically for our future.

As for the list posted by asport i think it is legit. Veseli, Kukeli and (logically) one of the strikers should be dropped. We play a formation with one foward, so there is no need for us to call up three out and out strikers and Gashi who can also play there. Kukeli, Veseli and Shala could also be another option as we all know De Biasi won't use Shala. Kukeli, Veseli and Aliji(Agolli for me) would be the last option, as we have Lenjani who can play LB.

As for other options, wherever i wrote Kukeli replace with Basha. Now as for Lila, he is a solid player and you should take two players in each position so he is one of the 2 RB's. People need to stop judging him for playing RM as De Biasi puts him there, at RB he has always been solid. Plus we are not gonna drop a player who did what he did in serbia and who has been part of the team for so long, plus he is still a good player.

Yeah dude i mean who else was he gonna get in the extension list... This list was pretty obvious to predict. The 23 men squad tho its unpredictable. I think zeneli has no chance unless we get 3 injuries.

Hopefully Rashica gets more playing time in the friendlies then he did against Luxbourg

Lila is an utility man and who doesn't see this is blind

The lad gives his all at every game of the kombetare and is a good defender
He can play as RB,LB,DMF,CM, RM
Don't judge him judge the coach he makes the tactics he chooses players positions

Basha on the other hand is dead meat his career finished after his bad injury at Torino
Now a bench warmer at a Serie C level team
Is Lilaj worse than him?

Don't judge players by how they used to play but from how they actually play
For example Yaya Toure was a beast a couple of seasons ago but. now.....fff l would choose Kukeli over him

After the euros, the likes of Lila. Basha. Kukeli. Agolli and Balaj shouldn't be called up anymore. We need new blood in the national team e.g Uysal, Avdijaj and Manaj

R these guys for real?

Zeneli? Zeneli who?

The guy first of all has not committed himself at any NT yet
Second he has not an Alb passport
And last but not least Rashica(maybe Alb footballer of the year) has not a guaranteed place at the 23 of GDB and Avdijaj a guy with big potential and a huge buy-out clause(40m) is licking De Biasis ass for a 1 month to take him with zero chances Not to mention Manaj who thinks he still has hopes

So yes Zeneli will not be at the list he will start every single game of the competition cause he's extraordinary

Holy shit my bad dude i ment veseli smh. I cant believe i didnt read wat i wrote hahaha but i was refering to veseli

Lila has deserved his place since Belgrade. So has Balaj. I don't give two shits about how shitty they play.
