There’s still no excuse for us. We should be able to beat both teams even with all the injuries. Hopefully, expectations are extremely low because that is the only time when these guys can play well.

Veseli and Mihaj vs Liel Abada(potential supertalent) and Weissman...

I don't know man...

Israel is favoured to win at home, but Albania could pull off an upset here.

Been almost a year since we won a match. Hope we get back in the win column soon..

I dont care, Reja is gone after this and thats the biggest victory we could have.

That's what was said about Panucci too, I don't trust Duka with his coach's choices. It's not like Guardiola's coming after Reja. We have to get what we can out of these matches. Expectations are as low as they can get so let's see, usually they tend to perform better in that case.

Abada looks like a good talent but lets be real he's not an elite player and Hysaj/Balliu are professional players who should be able to handle them. If Abada rapes up then we don't deserve any qualification or success. Besides Weissman the whole team is full of Ramadani's and Cokaj's. As for Veseli he's been generally good for the NT considering his club career has been meh.

But of course it all depends on the tactics. If Reja continues with his old style of play with no pace or width in the lineups we can say goodbye to any chance of beating Iceland or Israel.

If he gets Daja, we're set. No more foreign coaches.

I agree should be an Albanian . Unless it’s a top foreign coach but that won’t happen. It’s time we have one of our own.

Apparently Bushi has caused some controversy for poaching Kosovar players. FFK and Bunjaku spoke against it.

But if we are being honest, none of these so called "talents" look promising at all. I guess Medon Berisha a little more than others because he actually had a pre season with Lecce's first team but that's a bad team and it's a red flag that he was sent to the primavera again. People are getting hyped up over literal amateurs.

It's stupid because Kosovo has constantly poached players from Switzerland. You can't have it both ways.

Albania is a team full of superstars, and you guys are worried about Liel Abada?

Real question.. how will Israel contain the likes of Kristjan Iniesta, Keidi Modric, Marash Chiellini, and Armando van Basten?
