Uzuni's form has been absolutely crazy in pre-season. Scoring every friendly, ran the park against Prishtina and just scored a double again, although his team won 14-0 so that one didn't mean much lol.

If he pops off again this season it's high time he moved to a top5

Lets hope he can develop , because we're desperate for anything right now.

If Vrioni manages to become decent it will be the biggest career turnaround ever because he has looked terrible everywhere so far. He even struggled for the u-21 and that's the ultimate red flag for a player.

Honestly it would surprise me too, I was surprised at him going to Juve. Could always see why he's liked but just wasn't it for me.

As long as I don't have to see Balaj and Manaj any more, I'd rather have us playing.

Balaj i agree, but sadly I don't see anyone right now better than Cika and Manaj upfront. Let's hope Broja is the one who takes over Manaj's place.

The ceiling is very low for Vrioni. Turning 23 in October without much first team experience. He doesn’t have any raw skills that would make you think he has breakout skills. Besides having a high work rate and good attitude he doesn’t really bring much to the table. Not pacey, doesn’t have technical skills, don’t think he’s a finisher or whatever.

But best of luck to him. FSHF seems to really like him and he seems to be called up regardless. All it takes for him is to score a few goals and he might be starting for us. Salihi also had some monster seasons in Austria so take it with a grain of salt if he unexpectedly does well.

I quite disagree. He's got decent size and pace, physically good, work rate and attitude is on point and whilst he's been underwhelming without much experience you can see that there might be something there. If he's a Salihi then I'm absolutely fine with that
