Kumbulla ain’t Broja..Dallku wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2024 3:58 pm Even being part of a Mourinho led team for years requires being a great professional. He was mostly in and out and then the ACL happened...
Keep in mind that this was a 30 million defender when he was first bought by them. The talent and potential was always there.
For Albania it's a Broja case... beggars can't be choosers. These bench players are the best players.
Go check the noise that comes from the crowd when Broja is subbed on or has the ball to figure it out for yourself.
Kumbulla is just another CB, actually our 3rd, 4th or 5th option at the position. Kumbulla was so professional that Mourinho said he was no better, and actually even worse than random Norwegian leaguers. Mourinho did not give him a single minute in front of his own home fans Conference league final Tirana.
What more is there to say?
"I'm the one who decided to play with the team we use tonight, so it's my responsibility," Mourinho said to Sky Sport Italia.
"I did it with good intentions and to give opportunities to those who work hard and also give a rest to some guys. Tonight we lost against a team with more quality, it's as simple as that.
"If I could use the same players every match I would. It's risky because there's a huge gulf between our first choice and second choice players. I expected better, but it's my responsibility."
