Kosova National Team [General topic]

looool

If somehow they would get the Xhakas (1000:1 odds imo),

Lets calm down on the odds because Xhaka's father( Ragip) has always said that once Kosovo is recognized both of his kids will switch and play for Kosovo because to him it's a dream. Their family members have said the same things on facebook. They obviously respect Albania but they like Kosovo just a tad more. Out of all the players rumored to switch the Xhaka brothers have the highest chances. They are extremely connected to Kosovo and FFK.

For the rest I predict:

Switzerland:

Behrami has said recently that he's too old to switch and will be retiring from NT football most likely.

Shaqiri is the face of Switzerland so I don't think he'll switch unless he feels unwanted in Switzerland and maybe he sees something GREAT happening in Kosovo and wants to be a part of it. Very little chances he goes though.

Xhaka is crazy about Kosovo so I predict that he'll switch.

Tarashaj is very patriotic about Kosovo as well so there is a very big chance he switches.

Hadergjonaj is NT-less right now so he could be a great addition for Kosovo to solidify that RB position.

Finland:

Hetemaj has always said that he would switch in a heartbeat if Kosovo was recognized and there is no reason to not believe him.

Belgium:

Januzaj will switch for sure and this will also be redemption for Abedin Januzaj because deep down he regretted his decision of refusing Albania(based on how things have gone). Belgium is not respecting his son and they have too much talent anyway.

Montenegro:

Beqiraj just like Hetemaj has said that he would switch.

Albania:

Etrit Berisha is a Kosovo product through and through and he loves Bunjaki because he discovered him in Sweden.. Berisha has developed a big connection with Albania as well though(#1 for a number of years and has made history) so him switching will be tough. Kosovo might want to respect Ujkani for switching at harder times too so there are a lot of factors here. I give it a 50/50 chance that he goes.

Cana is at the end of his career so no.

Mavraj doesn't strike me as a a big Kosovar. I don't think he gives a shit about that and he never showed any signs of wanting a Kosovo NT, etc.. Mavraj only cares about his faith and he's thankful that Albania gave him so many chances and got him to a Euro. So I don't think that he'll switch.

Ajeti might switch because his family is very connected to Kosovo like the Xhaka family. 50/50 chance just like Berisha.

Djimsiti won't go IMO. He's a laid back guy who doesn't appear interested in these stuff and Albania is in a better position than Kosovo right now so he'll stay.

Xhaka will most likely switch and go play with his brother. I'd like to see that.. it would be a nice story.

Abrashi: See Djimsiti. I don't think he'll leave unless he's extremely tempted.

Gashi has said for American media recently that he'll think about switching but right now he's focused on Albania. I don't think he would switch but I couldn't care less about him tbh.

Rashica will switch. He's a Kosovo kid and Bunjaki has indirectly confirmed it.

The rest like (Shala, Kukeli) and co I don't know or care.

That was a nice post malaka m l agree with 90% of your predictions specialy about the Xhaka bros
Better Granit at Kosova than Switzerland he is the best Albanian blooded player atm
If we had him at the Alb NT l would be more than happy and our midfield could easily turn to one of the top-10 at the world

Di Maria is a winger/attacking player so he doesn't really need mass or anything. Kace often plays as a defensive midfielder where it's more important to have strength and a physical presence.

As for gaining leg mass it's done by doing squats. All athletes know this and wtf are you talking about bones getting wider lol?

Physical pressence helps but you dont need physical presence as a def midfielder lol all you need is vision, agression, a bit of technique and accurate passing. U do realise most plays come from a def midfielder do u not? Agression adds pressure, vision sees play opportunities, technique helps on too many aspects and obv you need to have accurate passing to set up plays. And What??? Thers various methods that help you build legg mass... Squats is just 1 of the many. Anyone who has playd some type of sport knows that. Seems like u have playd.... As for the bones get wider i ment thicker. You can increase ur bones density up to the age of 25 especially football players who do alot of leg training. Kaces 22.

LedZep I disagree with you on Xhaka. Not saying impossible, but he's moving to Arsenal soon, and hard to see him switching to a NT that doesn't even have a proper stadium yet (I think they'll play in Loro Borici too, or maybe Shkup). The guy wants to play in major tournaments with NT. Although I can see him switching to Kosova once he's 29-30 (if that's even legal) and only has a few years on NT level.

Anyhow, I'm all for Kosova having a NT even if it hurts us (it's a sovereign state and must have independent institutions). But some of those formations are a pipe dream that will never happen. Even if Xhaka somehow comes, Januzaj and Shaqiri, who are shit atm, won't come.

[Dallku]

Ownerofnoobs, the Xhaka brothers can qualify for major tournaments with Kosovo too. I doubt Granit is delusional enough to believe that he can win a trophy with Switzerland so not much changes. I believe Kosovo is working on a new stadium so that's not a problem either. Their family loves Kosovo more than anything and they have promised everyone there that the brothers will return if it's recognized so we'll see.

Taulant would be a significant loss for us because he's probably our most complete midfielder. People say Kace(once again on the bench today) is but nah, Xhaka is the most complete at least by our low standards. I'll miss him in the red % black but it would be cool to see him and Granit on the same field bringing glory to their hometown nation.

[Aurora Bulkualis]

It's not just a matter of qualifying (which maybe they have a 20% chance for Euros but certainly not World Cups). But playing in knockout rounds of World Cup and Euros vs. Spain, Germany, Belgium. This is prestigious shit. I really don't see Xhaka just dropping everything and coming over to the Kosovar team.

As I said, maybe in their late 20s I could see both of them moving over, but for now I don't see either brother switching.

I don't see Ajeti leaving if DB stays. Ajeti has a great relationship with GDB and owes a large part of the turn around in his career to DB. When the Swiss didn't want him GDB called him up, when he was clubless he was not only getting called up but playing crucial qualifying games against the likes of Portugal and I'm fairly certain GDB pulled some strings to get him to move to Italy.

As for Xhaka, I've been saying this for a long time but he's the heart of our midfield. Our best player this past campaign. He's a lion.

[Albo_eagle]

Oh my days give it a rest. No one is leaving. Sure you can just throw out your useless thoughts as the greek does but it has no value.
