You're just arguing against points that aren't made, it must already be obvious to you that Turkey is a respectable league and Superiore isnt and that would be the first reply given to you.
When he says "in form" hes obviously noting the fact its in a decent league and I dont think anybody values the form of Balaj with Vllaznia.
So now all of a sudden league strength matters for "form"....??
but Turkish league is not respectable. It's top heavy like the Croatian league. Difference is that the Turks have 3 teams while the Croats have one. Albanian leaguers like Ethemi, Rroca, Cekici, a finished Lenjani, etc easily started in the Turkish league. '

This is Vrioni all over again. He used to score every week in Austria but never passed the eye test. Now he's a shitty reserve in the MLS.
and you used to hype him up too while he was scoring....
Of course it does... form is as strong as the opponents it comes against. Form against 8th league players doesn't tell anyone anything. Good form in Turkey might tell people something.
The point of disagreement here is clearly that you don't think goals in Turkey mean anything, for which I disagree, mainly given the fact that he has done the best against the big teams he played and also that he plays for a weak team himself that doesnt create much.
Keep in mind the high scorers in this league are usually pretty good players. He is up there with names like Icardi who only has 1 goal more despite playing for an infinitely superior team thats lost 1 game all season.
Vrioni had a below average season but I don't think he is useless to the NT either. He's certainly better than Cikalleshi and he'll likely improve this upcoming season.
The guys you named might have started games(I believe at least 2 of them got benched eventually) but they certainly werent amongst the best players of the league... Manaj is.
