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!

If it is a retirement league, explain why American, Canadian, and Mexican NT are full of MLS players.
Countries like these are levels above Albania..
Because of close proximity obviously and MLS clubs pay well too.
Their best players/talents still go to Europe. That's their dream. Unfortunately not all of them can cope in Europe. Just look at Jozy Altidore, Landon Donovan(Considered the best American player ever btw), etc.

Younger = more physical ?
Turkish league also ranked 20th in Europe...
Austrian League ranked top 10 and Jack the Ripper scored 19 goals there.
Let’s see how many he scores in MLS..
Bradley Wright-Phillips who was a league 1 player in England went on to be one of the top scorers in MLS history. If Vrioni doesn't hit 20 a year at this age then he is a bum.
For reference the current top gs for this season came from Russia where he scored at about the same rate as Bekim Balaj
