Juventus fans are furious cause they think he’s worth much more than 4 million. I don’t follow MLS but if it’s according to various rankings it’s up there with Turkish Superliga and even lower than Russian Premier League.

If Vrioni is worth something he’ll dominate the league easily, it’s just a small upgrade from the Austrian Bundesliga.

When I saw Vrioni against Iceland, it was obvious his movement is of a high level. He makes great runs and has decent pace, good size so I don't think it is crazy for him to repeat the same thing in MLS. Idk much about the style of football over there but looking at results the games seem to be high scoring so he could have a lot of space.

Let's see if Juve regret it

It's definitely stronger than Austrian league. I'd say a level below Turkish league.

He wont get as many tap ins and easy chances as he did but he'll score a few goals. Salihi scored 6 in 23 for DC United. Probably something similar for Vrioni.

You're right. I think Salihi was ripping apart the Austrian league too before he joined DC United. MLS is known for being a very physical league. Let's see how he copes with it.

Dont think anyone has ever said the MLS is physical lmao. Its a retirement home

Manaj would apparently move in the next week to either Watford or Getafe.

I haven’t followed MLS in a few years but it was always considered a very physical league which is typical of lesser quality leagues.

Vrioni is a somewhat physical player and with high motor offensively so he should cope with it. I’d be more concerned if he’s actually decent since half of his goals were from easy tap ins last year.

Manaj is close to Watford. Look at the comments of this tweet by their fans. Just from his highlights alone they can tell that he's painfully average lol. Manaj is a second division player so this is meant to be. He's the Frederick Veseli of strikers.

MLS is a fast paced, physical league..

American, Canadian, and even Mexican NT usually have plenty of players from there. Nations like this are full of athletic beasts, who would run through Albania with ease.

Most of the super professionals on our roster are out of shape. In the middle of Tirana, they could not keep it up against a bunch of Israeli leaguers from Hapoel Beer Sheva. Clearly, it looks like someone is forcing them to play football.

When Keidi was at Espanyol in Segunda (who got relegated from LaLiga the season before with like 19 points), you claimed their 'historic' status as a LaLiga team showed how rated he was in football.

Now a rich English team that has been in the Premier League for most of the last 10 years, and is favourites to go straight back up after relegation, signs Manaj, and you make it out to be awful. Spin doctor.

The only question for me would be will he start there, because they have several good strikers, some of whom played in the Prem. If he can, I think he will establish himself now as the Championship is perfect for his play style.
