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!

I did, that's where I got the 5'8/9 number. 173 is 5'8 because that's what I am.
Friend..
If you are 5’8” and have played any sports, then you should know exactly what I am talking about. When skill level is equal, it is harder to play against taller guys.

Depends on the sport, if its Basketball then yeah its harder lol
But in the real world people are not equal ability, and Bare is just better than these guys you love because they are a few inches taller
In football being too tall can have a negative affect unless you're a defender, gk, or a literal freak of nature like Ibrahimovic, Milinkovic-Savic whose technical ability is so great that they over compensate for agility and speed issues. Those players are very rare though.
Being too short can also be negative like Ergys Kace as we all know.
Bare/Laci/Asllani are definitely short but not to the point that they are complete liabilities physically.

And physicality isn't always a good thing. Give me a technical player over a physical one any day of the week.
All depends on the team..
Physical players Xhaka, Abrashi beat out technical guys like Kace, Lilaj. Skela, Lala were even better on the ball, but could not achieve a fraction of that De Biasi success.
For an underdog like Albania, the physical players will always be more important. A superior country like Spain, who holds the ball all game, would make better use of those technical players.

You need a mix of profiles.
You can't have all pitbulls because someone needs to carry the ball and make plays. You can't have all technical lazy players because someone needs to win the ball back.
But if you have both, the pitbulls can work and win the ball back to pass to their more gifted teammates, and it works in harmony.
