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!

Well Zabaleta on the assistant bench will be interesting, he’s not a bum in the slightest. This is a weird hire, wonder how a South American is gonna get along with a Balkan team …
Can’t see this ending well but you never know
If it is a South American, I hope at the very least they play attacking football.
If we're going to lose, at least let us be entertained. There's nothing worse than losing while playing anti-football.

Sylvinho prefers the 4-3-3, so should be the end of 3-5-2 for us finallyyyy
Reja actually blamed the players for 3 in the back. He said that Djimisiti, Veseli and others told him to play like that because they were scared that they were gonna concede many goals.

Time to see what Djim and Kumbulla are made of. No more excuses. I suspect they will struggle at first though.
Strange, strange appointment. We've gone for a Brazilian which is a completely different school of thought and footballing culture to Albania, not only that but he will not be able to communicate with ANY of the players himself. Then additionally, little to no experience as a manager - in the little experience he does have, he was fired by Lyon after 3 months and fired by Corinthians after a year.
He also sounds like an attacking coach so maybe we will get murdered any time we play a top team.
A really odd appointment which doesn't seem to fit with the structure of our team at all but hey I hope it works out and we get to see some nice Joga Bonito.
Also, notice only 18 month contract. Duka had to ask Rama for money to pay for his salary. Probably why he kept Reja around until the last minute.
Although like I said, if he plays attacking football, I'm all for it. Maybe the team will become watchable again. I don't care about results anymore as long Duka is in charge. This team will never accomplish anything with him there.
