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!

That version of Cikalleshi that was hitting posts was a beast. He was also close to signing for Sampdoria if you guys remember but I guess they didn't pull the trigger on him.

Not a fan of this new version. Running on cement boots in slow motion and loses most duels with defenders. He might poach a lucky goal here and there but his overall game hurts Albania now.

Cikalleshi will be 34 at Euro 2024 finals. Pointless bringing him up against Broja.

We play with 2 STs anyway, but yeah if he's still starting by 2024 , we wont be at the Euros. Just get rid of Reja , that's all I ask.

Did they add a new rule where the team fielding most players over 30 loses?

Burak Yilmaz is still a starter for Turkey at age 36, Goran Pandev played until recently for Macedonia, Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned to Sweden at 40, etc.

Right now, Cikalleshi is the man! Time will come for Broja..

The man is very much Broja, those 2 goals sealed it. Best moments this NT has had since 2016

You bring older players for short term results in crucial matches. Cikalleshi is not the future of the NT. We should establish our chemistry with Broja.

Asllani is now 28th in running. Wouldn't be surprised if he cracks top 10 by the end of the season.

Manaj is #314. One of the laziest players in the whole league.

So we should play him DM then, since as a ST he's useless.

I have long said that Suga has all the traits to be a top level midfielder.

Even Motta agreed with me, yet you all called me a fool for it..
