Albanian National Team [General topic]

This is a good lesson for FSHF to be more aggressive in cap locking players. Bajrami has been getting called up for YEARS but buried on the bench. All they had to do is give him a minute here and there to avoid this.

Bajrami might not be a great loss but better players than him could do the same. Medon Berisha for example needs to be cap tied.

Medon Berisha has already been captied one year ago.
Adrian Bajrami is kinda a loss and I understand his frustration. He is very talented but we should not forget he played for Benficas B team until 23 while Gjimshiti, even a longterm injured Kumbulla, Ajeti, Ismajli were all above. He is a similar type of player like Hajdari only a bit worse.

1. Maybe Switzerland has interest out to redemption bc of Kosova taking two of their talents (highly believe Hajdari is a done case) which I definitely believe Murat Yakin and Swiss FA would do this.

Or

2. He just got mad for being the 5th choice and offered himself out. Because I can no where find a Swiss statement about this issue yet. Keep in mind at Swiss NT despite them naturalizing two players with Swiss roots, he would also have no role there to play due to high competition. There is no place before Akanji, Amenda, Elvedi etc.

You can clearly put the blame on Sylvinho, Reja or more certainly FSHF, however if someone wants to leave his motherland for Switzerland let them. You all know what did happen to players like Mergim Berisha, Andi Zeqiri, Uran Bislimi, Elvis Kabashi and so on. FSHF needs to take this as a wake up call and try to find a solution for longterm on it.

Bajrami isn't an amateur like someone Fidan Aliti. Bajrami does seem to have some potential and he was kind of punished playing an Benefica which is a very good team and very ruthless in terms of player development.

It still is a very stupid decision by him because he was the next in line at the Center back position. Him and Kumbulla would have ideally been the long term pairing after this world cup cycle. I can't even blame FSHF too much because they have been calling him up despite him being a reserve player. It's just an unfortunate situation.
