Watched their coach interview after their last game (it’s in italian). It’s a win or die for his job aswell.

That coach is working with arguably even less talent than we are working with in Albania. Shame on Hungarian FA they would sack him because of one 'poor' campaign after such a good Euros.

So no matter the result an Italian will "die" after this game :)

So I just realized Broja's goal was the very first goal Albania has ever scored against Hungary in 7 tries.

We both need that game, the team that loses won't get the second place. If we both draw then we both don't get it :D Hungary got chances to reach playoffs through Nations League.

—-—-—Broja-Muci
-—Bajrami-Gjasula-Bare
Hysaj-Kumb-Gym-Ismaili-Balliu
—————Strakosha

The Muci/Broja partnership needs to start now. Gjasula has played really well last few games and it would be unfair to drop him. Bare has been out of form so far but it’ll be unfair to drop him after him being one of our best player in 2020. Maybe Balliu comes in. Dropping Uzuini is tough but I think Muci has more upside to give us something missing. Uzuini would make a good super sub tho.

Down the line that’s our best lineup, at least on paper. I doubt Reja drops Cika/Manaj partnership until these qualifiers end though and no way Muci starts just like that.

We're going to have 5 options for 2 spots in this game. Cikalleshi I think is the default starter, but Broja has made a good case. Manaj should be right after. For 2nd strikers Uzuni plays in Hungary, so he'll definitely get a good look. Muci is in good form though.

Our midfield is now officially our weakest link. Besides Bajrami it's really lacking. We need a proper box-to-box, and 1 holding/DM player. Bare Idk what he is. Seems like a box-to-box player, but he's too weak physically.

By what measure? The eye test? :zgerdhimje:

Laci deserves the start after his solid performance against Hungary. Bare put the final nail in our coffin at Poland! He has eaten 7 goals in his last 2 games with opponents ranked inside top 200.
