We may have been beaten comfortably but we actually played some decent football for a team running on buk me djath .

Our defense was atrocious in that game. Our best player was 17 year old Nallbani, who had his international debut in that game, despite conceding 5 goals.

lol yeah they're just vibing . The goal ruled out was total bs .

Luxembourg beat Ireland away from home , another big result for Turkey today , both have managers from the home country . I just keep seeing this trend of managers from the actual country lead these teams to good results , our next manager has to be Albanian , are you telling me there isn't 1 Albanian who can do a job . Hasi for example , he's done ok in club football and I feel he'd do well with us.

I think the only reason we have a foreign coach is because a domestic one would get constantly prejudiced and criticized for corruption, nepotism, etc..

that and add a sprinkle of inferiority complex (aka thinking anything foreign is better by default).

When it comes to actual results there is just no way an Albanian coach could do worse. Just no way. This is more of a case of Albanians being idiots.

Also foreign coaches have been able to get some of these foreign born players to play for us. I think having Reja in charge may have convinced Bajrami to switch over to us.

Meh I don't think that's true. It was Salihi who approached Rexhbecaj recently. For the most part it's FSHF who are getting these diaspora players. Reja doesn't know who's Albanian and who's not. Keep in mind that the truly good players will still reject Albania regardless. Bajrami is a serie B player so our chances of getting him were higher.

I'm fairly certain Reja was proactive in the recruitment of Bajrami. Makes sense for Bajrami considering the large Italian/Swiss contingent we have in our NT.

And it also looks like Memushaj out of the lineup. Broja might get a start up top, Reja was hinting that Broja may be familiar with the English side since he was developed there.

Tbh Bajrami is a excellent, excellent acquisition he's more likely to play for Switzerland if he hadn't picked Albania than Rexhbecaj was for Germany.

Broja-Cika
Uzuni-Bare-Roshi
Lenjani-Djimsiti-Ajeti-Ismajli-Hysaj

I think we might be seeing this lineup or very close to it. I hate the idea of 2 bigmen up front but Broja looks to have decent pace

Potential England lineup. Sterling is gonna give us issues, I would put Hysaj on the left side as I trust Hysaj against Sterling. I would like to see Doka on the right or even Uzuini (even if he’s our best attacker)

As for the CB we’re one injury away from Hoxhallari playing

You can always count on Panorama to be wrong about probably line-ups, they are always wrong even it comes to Partizani vs Tirana derby so what we can be absolutely sure is England won't start the match in this formation.

Reja prefers Veseli over Ajeti. No way uzini and roshi both start as midfielders.

------Manaj--Cika
Lenjani-Laci--Bare--Hysaj
-------Gjasula
--Veseli-Gym--Ismajli
--------Berisha

I think that'll be the lineup. Maybe Broja or Uzuini replaces Manaj. I don't mind Laci starting because I think he's a player that puts in a lot of work and that's what we'll need tomorrow.
