You’re right, I don’t get it!

How about we make a friendly bet? I say Poland takes all 6 points from Albania. If I win, you make an actual account and change your profile picture to a player of my choosing for a year (I pick the picture).

If I lose, I will change my profile picture to player of your choosing for a year (you pick picture). What do you say?

Let’s hope Lewandoski retires after the WC. At his age I can see it being a possibility.

The opening match against Poland is gonna be crucial and if we lose that match our chances of qualifying are slim. If we get a surprise win and take care of business against Faroe and Moldova which we should then we’ll play Czech with 9 points and in a position where we can play for a draw.

We need an ambitious new coach and someone who can light a fire under our complacent and mentally weak cast of players

Notice how all 3 of the guys mentioned are above 1.90m in height. Who does Albania have can match up with such physical beasts like Soucek, Kral, and Barak in midfield?

Czechia looked like scoring every time they made their way down the pitch. Have to hold your breath for every cross into our zone, as the superstars on defence suck aerially. Schick is a monster inside the box, and he bullied Djimsiti, Kumbulla, Ismajli last time out. No answer for the big Slav in attack..

Notable advantages in size, strength/conditioning, made Czechia impregnable defensively. We did not come close to scoring other than Cikalleshi miracle from 30 yards out. Bad matchup!

So what's the reasoning behind the tiny Israelis running circles around Albania?

There are a lot of reasons. Size is probably not one of them.

The best Albanian players still have milk mustaches. They need to grow mentally first and foremost so they can carry the pressure.

According to Salihi from an interview today, it's the lack of depth that's the problem. When some top leaguers are missing(like they have been) the team is screwed. It's actually a fair point by him. Take out Kumbulla, Djim and Bare and this team is on par with Azerbaijan.

Lol, that's probably what's on his mind, but I'm quite confident Albania will take points from both Poland and Czech Republic.
