Huge game tomorrow for Xhimshiti, hopefully he manages to lift the EL trophy as captain!
not the same , are we forgetting his son is only half albanian and doesn’t even speak the language . guys basically scottish/irish.Plako wrote: Mon May 20, 2024 4:21 pmIt means nothing.

I'd say that increases the chances a little bit more, as his father probably still has strong ties to Albanian football.
How is it not the same? Not sure if Gruda's mom is Albanian but isn't Gruda basically German? What's the difference between the two?CanaYouDoIt wrote: Wed May 22, 2024 12:36 amnot the same , are we forgetting his son is only half albanian and doesn’t even speak the language . guys basically scottish/irish.Plako wrote: Mon May 20, 2024 4:21 pmIt means nothing.

Both Leverkusen and Atalanta looked superior to Roma, like faster, stronger and full of stamina, lol.Aurora Bulkualis wrote: Tue May 21, 2024 10:57 pm Leverkusen has a 42 game unbeaten streak as well. Roma came close when they were 2-0 up, but Leverkusen came back to tie 2-2.
Lol, Gym, Rrahmani and Rashica have had way better careers compared to the players that made the list. They probably needed that as motivation to become better!artan wrote: Thu May 23, 2024 12:16 am And to think Di Biasi dropped Gym from the Euro 2016 roster many moons ago. Albania really lucked out that he wasn't eligible to switch to Kosovo or to Switzerland.
Albania has really lucked out in having a diaspora that has been able to keep it competitive.
