Albanians abroad

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!

Asllani had a very nice debut for Torino. You can tell he will be a leader on that team. He asked for a sub in the 80th minute though so he might be injured.

Albanian fans think he's a shit amateur player because he's not good enough for a club like Inter. They don't realize that guaranteed starter at mid table Serie A is incredible for Albanian standards.

Gruda wasn't called for the September German squad, but it's hilarious that we're wishing a potential future player to be bad.

He has to be good, but not too good :lol: :lol:

Just came to comment this - he's such a good player

He's gonna pick Germany that is obvious but its not like we've tried to get him.

Look at the way Kosova has gone after their diaspora, basically begging which is what we should be doing - instead we just send an invite to be like "see we tried" and act like we're a big nation when we're not. Its pathetic. Same thing that happened with Vata, and we're gonna lose a guy we really need again.

I think it's obvious that he will choose Albania only if he's not in German plans. That's why we needed a little luck (a bad spell from him).

Things were looking good prior to today because he comes from a bad u21 Euro championship and he wasn't doing anything at Brighton. And today he does that lol... Just unlucky.

Gruda won‘t be playing for Albania until Duka is gone. Trust me. Same goes for other Dualnationals.
If he starts to play for Germany then he will only play up to 3 friendlies and nothing more. Lennart Karl (RW left footed) from Bayern Munich seems to be promising he could technically take over his spot at Germany.

Gruda will only come to play for us if he fails to get into Germany's plans. That's been obvious, there is nothing we could do on that front, it is clear they are his first preference.

It was never going to happen quickly either. It will take at least a few years, he was never going to make a decision at 21 years old, he will want to see how his pro career pans out.

Right. This is why I don't believe in the Duka nonsense. He's just an easy scapegoat for people to excuse their choices. FFK getting accepted into FIFA/UEFA proved that Duka is just a scapegoat as players continued behaving the same way with FFK as they did with Albania.

Every player will choose the stronger team if he has the opportunity to do so. The exceptions are very rare and even those can be disputed. Like this Avdullahu guy who's seen as a unicorn for choosing Kosovo apparently might not be all that according to Shaqiri, Dzemaili and others and only chose Kosovo because he might not be good enough for Switzerland.
