Team can’t play without Shehu

You can only pass in triangles around the back for so long..

In the first half they couldn't even do that. It was just defenders passing it to each other.

Would rather lose while attempting to play!

And lets not forget Israel missed a 100% sitter when Ramadani lost the ball in midfield

0 shot on target so far with 5 min left in our own backyard..

Unfortunate. Albania had the possession but Israel had the chances. Still a pointless friendly in June under a new coach and system so the result is irrelevant.

If he can somehow make them to be braver and more direct he's the goat because that's Albania's main problem. They play (too scared) not to lose than ball more than looking to create something.

It doesn’t matter who is on the pitch or what tactics the coach plays..

We don’t have it in us to play fast paced attacking game..

Our domestic league plays slow as well..

That should tell you all you need to know..

Some of the starters were showing a surprisingly low level.

Laci and Ramadani were really quite bad. Mehmeti didn't do much either.

Broja doesn't even look like a professional footballer. No wonder they don't put him in the squad lists, the guy doesn't move anymore, I swear he was walking the entire game.

Hasa and Pajaziti looked alright. Some nice touches.

People gun Sylvinho for some selections but I think some of these players, he didn't like for a reason.

It's only one game, and he has quality obviously, but Mehmeti did not show clearly that he is a starter, based off this.

And Broja, turning 25 in September, is getting worse every year.

We have to give chances to some new players. I liked Pajaziti, Sherri and Hasa today.

Laci is an enigma. He fights with the ball but he also looked like the only one who gave a shit today. Literally the only one who knows how to press in the whole team. It's annoying because he's so awkward on the ball and physically weak.

Mehmeti was disappointing. I thought he'd be quicker and better at dribbling. I don't trust the Championship but everyone glazes it...

The attack 100% needs to be Ernest Muci focused. Especially in this formation his plays with 2 strikers. He can easily be the 2nd striker with a free role.

I'm glad I forgot this game was today

Don’t matter who is on the pitch..

Even Messi can be there..

The game will look the same..
