Kosova National Team [General topic]

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!

What's an Uysal? And didn't Rama retire already or is this an up & coming player?

With Abrashi in Bundesliga and Memushaj in Serie A, we will have quite alot of players in elite leagues. Avdijaj returns to Shalke aswell.
I'm not gonna argue with you on it because you obviously have some pre-disposed bias for Kace but my opinion on the matter I see him as a hardworking defensive mid with average passing ability. The passes he contributes are not anything that anybody else on our midfield can't do the same.

Is there any passing stat you can point to with Kace because on the field I just don't see it. If Kace was that good he wouldnt still be at Paok where the fans literally abuse him after every bad performance. Who would stay at a racist club like that unless they had to?

Necip Uysal is a Albanian player that pays for Besikas in the Turkish league. I don't think he has, I haven't read or seen anything that says he has. Nonetheless I think he still a good option to have as a sub, certainly better then shala

He's an accurate passer and most importantly, he doesn't PANIC(unlike 95% of Albanian players).

So by Albanian standards he's great because he's a rare player for us. By world standards he's an average CM who mostly makes the safe pass. Don't listen to these kids who say that he'll sign for "Inter Milan". I would be more than happy if he signed for an Atalanta or a Genoa and hope that he'd get some play time. His physique is a major problem when it comes to him playing in a top league.

Napoli's Lorenzo Insigne is the same height as him and he's excelled in Seria A.

Looool i was about to say fair enough we each have our own opinions they you said the dumbest thing at the end that confirmed to me you have no idea what you are talking about. PAOK fans love Kaçe, they are begging him to stay. When the whole UÇK fiasco happened and Golden Dawn tried to attack him, who stood up for him? PAOK fans. It was PAOK vs Greece at that point. He came througb as a kid from their academy and they love him so lets not make things up, now reality starts to come out and we do wonder if you have 'watched him play this season as you said'?

Anyway, am i related to Kaçe? No. Do i know Kaçe personally? No. Is Kaçe even from the same part of Albania as me? No. I am from Prishtinë and he is from Korça so we are talking about nearly as far as possible with every divide, gheg tosk, religion blah blah. So no, i do not have a sort of pre-disposition towards him but i have seen him play like every other player and relised he is special. Why am i not banging on about Roshi like this or so on, it could be any player, but Kaçe is quality so that is why i always praise him.

You actually said he makes passes any of our players can do. I doubt you even watch Albania now. You might of been watching the wrong red team in our group, Portugal maybe?

Exactly. Height is no problem. You must knownothing about football if you say it is. Best player in the world? Messi. I think we are done here. But obviously you know who will say 'but Messi is offensive and Kaçe is defensive, or that's only one player' so we have to state more names. Silva, Sterling, Sanchez, Aguero, Tevez, Alves, Alba.

Now for Kaçe's position how about Veratti, an absolute gem of a footballer. Or even an even more defensive player Nigel De Jong who's game was all out destroyer. Yeah i think someone will be quiet now. All you hear is 'Kosovar' this, 'Kaçe too small', 'Rashica overated' getting very boring now. And not to forget now interference in issues where he doesn't have any knowledge like Vetëvendosja.
