Albanians abroad

It looks like journeyman Gjasula is now playing CB for Darmstadt..

Shpendi twins started and one scored with the other playing a pass in the build up

Interesting players for Bushi to call up to the u21

Roshi does suck and his career confirms it

Blasphemy..

Filip Kostic is considered a top attacker in Balkans but has registered just 12 goals contribution in 3127 minutes for Serbia (goal or assist around every 268 minutes). In comparison, Roshi 20 contributions in 3808 minutes (every ~190 minutes).

Blows him away, and Kostic has benefit of playing with best players in the world for Serbia. Roshi has been penalized when likes of Manaj miss open net tap ins.

Roshi in his day was not only great for Albanian, but Balkan standards!

“I hate that topic even today. It’s football, not politics. That gesture has no place on the football field. It’s stupidity, we’re not playing war. I was accused in Kosovo then that I didn’t participate in that gesture. The players of Serbia are my friends , were born after the war.” - Valon Behrami

Respect to Valon Behrami!

Never one to hide his true thoughts and play the Facebook patriot, unlike teammates Xhaka, Shaqiri. Hell of a player in his day, I will not forget how he bullied the Brazilians in Russia. He was everywhere that night!

Valoni eshte magjyp prandaj.

Enea Mihaj is doing well apparently. Thats good to see, I was impressed when I first saw him, he had the physical side to his game, I wondered why he didnt take off in Greece but we know why.

Good timing considering the injuries to Djim and Kumbulla. Ismajli in good form too, I'd consider 4ATB since that is what they play in alongside Balliu and Hysaj who's best performances came at FB not RWB. But Reja doesnt know what tactical nuance is so he'll just force people in positions they cant play.

but we all know that it's not exact science and context matters.

For example a lot of teams bunker against Serbia so less space for Kostic to operate. He likely gets marked tightly because he's a known player too. It's the opposite for Albania where attackers have all the space in the world from counter attacks. Fast players can do major damage for heavy underdog teams.

That's why Roshi was always so effective for Albania. Just athleticism/speed alone. Being able to beat your defender 1v1 is huge. It's different when teams sit back because defenders are never in isolated situations. They always have support.

Looks like Bajrami has lost his place at Empoli again.

He initially lost it to a 19 year old who's considered as a great talent but he got injured last week. Today Marko Pjaca(who they recently signed) is starting over him.

Surely linked to the constant rumours, I'd bet he wasnt giving his all in training.

Valon is a man who tells the truth..

Made no bones about being proud to represent Switzerland, as the country that gave his family a new home. He never made unfulfilled promises to join Kosovo after it becoming a member of UEFA, unlike huge patriot Ragip Xhaka.

“Jo mund të luajnë, por ju them që tani se djemtë e mi, Graniti dhe Taulanti do të luajnë për Kosovën. Ata janë të Kosovës me rrënjë, nuk janë të Shqipërisë, dhe ata do të luajnë për Kosovën. Për këtë do të bindeni kur të pranohet Kosova në UEFA e FIFA.” - Biggest patriot ever RAGIP XHAKA
