A win gets us into the playoffs but even at that point we would still need to win 2 more games. Regardless that's looking too far into the future, lets just focus on beating Poland. Do that and its party time in England.
Word is capacity is at 30%. Hope they change it.
They did change it for this game. Fshf confirmed they sold more than 20k few days ago.

French ref Clemet Turpin will be in charge on Tuesday. I hope Duka and his cronies find his bank account in Cyprus and make an anonymous deposit.

Albania deserves a helping hand from the officiating crew after getting hoodwinked in Warsaw.

Our game against Poland last time out had a lot of positives. We were winning all the duels in ground and air and creating some decent opportunities but defensive errors ruined us. With Veseli coming in it will compound the issue so everyone needs to be on their A-game.~


Zielinski and Lewa are fresh too. Harsh hand we've been dealt with Djim's injury and Poland 3 days after Hungary.

Uzuini gets criticism for his lack of finishing but his pace and ability to make runs is immense. That counter attack play will be needed against Poland as you can expect them to have the advantage possession and will be much more attacking than Hungary. Broja with his pace and dribbling ability is a threat on the counters compared to Cikaleshi who is a statue. Balliu in for Trashi and switch Hysaj to the left where he's better.

Losing Gym will be big and I don't know if Reja will go defensive because of it,
Yeah was thinking Uzuni and Borja up top might be a good counter duo. They’re both super fast.

Uzunis only problem is his terrible finishing. Maybe if he had someone to pass to.

While that may be harsh, we're playing at home and also coming off a massive victory so morale and confidence are at their highest. Any fan would kill to be in this position at the start of the qualifiers.

I'm hoping for Uzuni to redeeem himself in this Poland game and make up for all his misses so far. I do like Broja/Uzuni duo for sure

I'm not sure if it was just a bad game but for his club he normally burries those chances. But the fact is we actually looked decent attacking wise against a competitive team and alot of that is because Uzuini just opens up the game for us whereas Cika/Balaj/Manaj cant.

Missed clear cut sitters in all 4 starts this campaign, from England to San Marino to Hungary.
