Asani BTW is having an insane start to the season with his South Korean club (he didn't end up moving in the end).

10 goals and an assist in 11 games.

On paper it seems like we're going into the qualifier with a lot of players on form, and even though Daku was really bad when we started him, his great form can't be ignored, so I think he gets the nod over Manaj (also considering Manaj was knocked out today after jumping for a header, he is recovering ok but it isn't clear if he'll be available).

It seems like Broja is done as a player, it's been 3 full years since he was last fully fit, I really hope he can come back and help us for this campaign but it seems unlikely.

If Manaj is available, he should start over Daku every single time!

Will be interesting to see if Medon Berisha starts..

Doesn’t matter who starts against England, they’re both useless. I think Uzuni at least offers some pressing, better start him or Muci as false nine.

The wrong players are in form. (If you even count scoring in those amateur leagues as form)

Albania will play without fullbacks against England. Mitaj and Hysaj will miss the game for sure, Balliu is available but he has lost his spot in Rayo and probably regressing as a player.

Ismajli pretty sure will miss too but at least Kumbulla is in form and can match up with Harry Kane well.

Keep an eye on Djimsiti a week before international break... Hopefully he doesn't continue his pattern

Strakosha lost his spot at AEK after terrible performances and he's the only gk Albania has lool.... This is looking like another 5-0

According to some rumours Arijon Ibrahimovic decided to join Albania.

Hopefully its true because most likely he will end up playing for us or Kosova anyway, might as well be now instead of in 6 years.

Sugar Ray Manaj scored as Sivasspor lost at Hatayspor..

Uzuni played 90 minutes as Austin beat LAFC on the road. Uzuni is yet to score in MLS..

This is why I don't believe FSHF scouts the Kosovar league and tries to steal their players and convince them to choose Albania. They don't scout or approach anybody! Not even great talents from Albania. It's all agents. Brruti came to Albania because of his agent Eros Grezda who now works for an Italian agency. Brruti is probably nowhere near NT level, maybe not even u21 level but that doesn't matter. It's all connections..

Unless Weiper has a connection directly with fshf he won't ever get approached. Being a German speaker it won't be easy but maybe someone like Altin Lala or Skela can help make it happen.

Quick fire double by Manaj in the first half of his game today. Let's see if he'll get the hat-trick.
