Albanian National Team [General topic]

[Dallku]

True he didn't.

There is no way FSHF can legally win this.

But some sort of "forgiveness" and amnesty ruling can take place because the time frame is just unfair. These new FIFA laws are recent(no more than 1 year?).. That's also when Bajrami applied for Albanian citizenship.

So it depends if CAS and FIFA want to be assholes(follow the legal laws strictly) or just give Albania and Bajrami a break.

Pep looking to manage a national team after his contract runs out, you thinking what I'm thinking ?

lol just hoping there's some good young midfielders in the diaspora. Outside of Keidi Bare the seniors are lacking any techinal midfielders who are young. Tim Civeja looks good in Germany, just came off a long term injury , I'm thinking call him up just to make him ours, there's also a few other young German Albanians coming through, just hope we can snag a few from this generation.

Elvis Rexhbeçaj is who I was remembering, he turns 24 soon, won't make it for Germany, gotta at least try and get him. Another Mavraj situation.

I had hope for Meritan Shabani but he's been injured many times long-term now. I like Mehmeti from Wycombe he hasn't been starting the season but he looks like he has potential.

Bastian Toma, Rexhbecaj, Domgjoni, are diaspora ones we can go for who aren't good enough for their home country altho this FIFA ruling might obstruct that

CAS may rule like that as when Bajrami made the appearance the rules at the time wouldn't have tied him to Switzerland. It's unfair to make changes that tie him to Switzerland after the fact.

Correct , he last played for them in 2020 and the rules came into effect in 2021

Looks like Taulant refused the callup.

He could've helped in this already thin central midfield but oh well.

Our midfield is going to be awful. Having two of Laci, Ramadani or Gjasula next to Bare is going to be awful. I wouldn't mind giving Cekici a chance next to Bare in the midfield to alleviate some of the burden off Bare on the creativity. I really hope Balliu gets called up because we can't be playing Memolla, Trashi or Doka as a wingback. We already have too many amateurs in the lineup. Reja should switch to a 3-4-3 if he had any balls.

This is all assuming Bajrami is not allowed.
