Trajkoski is not a good player but atleast he was able to play a few seasons in Serie A and La Liga something Cikaleshi could never dream of. Realistically, Cikaleshi's ceiling was a bench player in the Turkish Superliga or a starter in the Turkish second division.

If Suga Ray could play (and do well) in Serie A, so could Cikalleshi in his prime.

Cika at his prime was a bench player for Istanbul Basaksehir. He was so bad for them that they eventually dropped him and he even ended up in Turkish 2nd division where he had to work his way up again. Only in the past 2 years or so he he gained some stability and started more games for Konyaspor.

In fact you can argue that Balaj had a better career overall than Cika even though Cika was the more talented player.

By any measure, Cikalleshi was always better than Manaj for Albania.

Manaj not only played, but did well in Serie A. What makes you think Cikalleshi could not do it too?

What kind of crack are you on?

Manaj played shit in the Serie A , not once , not twice but three different clubs.

If Cika was good enough, someone other than the Turks would've given him a chance.

Adrian Bajrami has been promoted to Benfica B this season and they play in the Portuguese second division. He's a starter for them.

^ Benfica fans seem to rate him and if there is anyone who knows talent it should be them.

He could end up at Wolves in 2-3 years if he's good enough.
