Albanian teams on european cups

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!

Without Shehi this game would be 3-0, 4-0.
The goal was Shehi's fault but in all fairness Besiktas missed a bunch of sitters. Even so they looked pretty passive overall and kinda let Skenderbeu play. Credit to Skenderbeu they did "play" a bit. They weren't scared to pass the ball around but the end product was too awful. The way they were shooting the ball was laughable, nowhere near close the target but tbh you can't ask for more from them. They have exceeded expectations and as long as they don't get "raped" I don't really care if they finish the group stage with 0 points(which they will).

Props especially to Olayinka, Lilaj and Berisha for playing at a decent level, or at least trying..

Latifi was terrible.

He has been terrible in the every game besides that 1st leg vs Milsami and a couple glimpses here and there. He doesn't have much potential imo.

Berisha looked good in the second half. I can see why some of you say he's a headless chicken because he gets the ball and tries to take on everyone. But I guess he needs to be like that for Skenderbeu to have any chance.

Sadiku, Aliji, Hysaj, Manaj, Curri, Gjasula , Kristi Marku, all have roma or ashkali roots. What to do...
So there is no problem with Olayinka then...He's only 19 too.
Huge problem, there is nothing Albanian about him, except for the fact that he plays for a Superliga team. All of the other guys you mentioned are Albanian in every which way you look at it.

Berisha missed a good chance after amazing run of Olaynka and his performance was extremely poor. In second half he was better but wasn't nothing special. Latifi failed miserably and that would big blow in his confidence but i am sure that he got more than he showed tonight. We should be aware that Berisha and Latifi don't have potential to play in higher level than Herolind Shala but Olaynka potential is immense i won't be surprised to see playing Nigeria NT.Skenderbeu should renew his contract and make him most paid player in squad.

So if you were offered to play for USA that would be a sin? We haven't turned into France yet. Eduardo didn't harm Croatia at all. Even Armenia has a Brazilian I think.

Don't want Olaynka in the NT. Not because he's black but because he's a dickhead. He quit on Skenderbeu despite being under contract and then came back after they made the EL. Just a mercenary of the highest order. He's a good talent though.. only 19 and Skenderbeu can make some money off him if they're smart.

Maybe I was watching a different game, but I dont see how Olaiyinka has such great potential. He was completely useless in my opinion. Kinda slow for a black guy, weak and lacking in technical ability. He had no ability to hold the ball and give the team a chance to move forward. And this idea of him playing for our national team is ridiculous.

Really the only player Europa League level is Shkembi. He was poor today, but he has the technical ability to compete at this level. He is calm and composed on the ball, and typically makes good passes.

I swear all Albanians think they're some type of racial anthropologist. If a person has a slightly tan complexion Albanians will say he's a gypsy which is hilarious. The only player from that list is Aliji which I think is half but the other guys aren't pale so they're gypsies.. okay!
