Albanians abroad

With memories of the golden years (80's) of the albanian football still fresh on her mind, Albania is now attempting to recreate its strong football legacy. As young players start making their names abroad, the future is looking bright for Albanian football!

The best thing about Keidi is that he's always so active. Always demands the ball, argues with teammates, etc..
Always been big on Bare. He has a very unique profile. Player with grit and claw but who is great technically and has high workrate. A beneficial type of profile for top teams. Only thing is he's very prone to dips and peaks in form.

Goal was just ruled out unfortunately

He started the season nervous and shaky but has since settled down. Now he makes smart decisions and plays to his potential.

IMO his only weakness is how weak he is physically. He has everything else... Technique, passing, work rate..

So Doka is a rotation option for HNK Gorica and Hysaj is a starter for Lazio. It's obvious who's having the better time at club level which is again why I say it would help more if you specifically said why Doka is more beneficial to us as nothing suggests he is near Hysaj's level.
The important thing is that the player is in shape and with a similar minute total, there can not be an argument that Hysaj is more fit than Doka.

At the end of the day, recent performances for Albania is what matters. Without Doka stifling Szobozlai, we are already eliminated!

Roshi was always a rotation player at his club while Rashica started and scored against the cream of the crop. One is a national team legend and the other is nowhere near!

Bajrami and Ismaili both on the bench today for Empoli. Hope it’s just rotation and nothing else

Keidi was very good for Espanyol today. Will be shocked if he gets benched.

I see Rey got a few minutes but the other attackers (who look much more talented than him) scored. It will be a struggle in Serie A for him.

Motta is married to this 19 year old the club bought this window. Mbala Nzola who bagged 11 goals and 4 assists for Spezia last season in Serie A (big thing for a relegation team) is getting even less minutes than Manaj. However the schedule is tough around this point and by Milan on Saturday they'll have played 3 games in a week so if Manaj will start it would be this weekend.

Bare suffers from the same problem lots of our players face, they don't have all the qualities to play the position they're in.

Cana was too reckless to be a defender, and not good enough of a passer to play in midfield. So he was stuck in some weird transition role.

Bare is not good enough offensively to be an offensive midfielder, and he's not good enough defensively to be a defensive midfielder. So by default he's a "box-to-box", but he doesn't have the physicality for that either.

He's perfect in Spain, because thats how all their CMs are basically . Not physical 6'2 brutes but smaller more technical guys.
