Can't believe this is the same team that beat Hungary home and away.

That just shows how high our potential peak is.

We should be in the 2nd tier of european nations after the big boys. But we have a coach making us play like we're still in 2005 with limited talent.

Another out of shape benchwarmer?

Put him beside Kristjan Iniesta and we will see a spectacle!

We just got to hope that Reja is at fault for the way these guys are performing. Just a reminder though, we were blaming Panucci too and look where we are right now!!

My ratings :
Strakosha 6 - Not at fault for 2 goals and was alright otherwise.

Hysaj 4.5 - The type of performance sadly becoming common for him. Offered nothing in attack and made an error leading to a goal in defense.

Ajeti 6 - Secure.

Ismaijli 5 - Weissman kept escaping him and he wasn't tracking their attackers well.

Balliu 5.5 - Meh.

Gjasula 5.5 - Comedic defending for 1st goal, but wasn't terrible other than that, moved the ball ok and had some interceptions/tackles.

Laci 5.5 - Good energy and tried but didn't do much of substance, like his companions in midfield.

Asllani 5 - Played out of position and it showed, he doesn't have the instincts to play as a 10. Bad game but not all his fault.

Abrashi 5 - did he even do anything?

Broja 6 - Missed two big chances but end of the day the only one with the potential to make something happen in the 11 today. Disappointing but still needs to stay as a starter.

Cika 6 - Had some nice moments, good header that was close to going in.

Subs :

Uzuni 8 - Great goal and was close to getting another but got stopped by the last defender.

Ramadani 6 - Decent shot that forced a great save from Israeli GK, and actually looks competent.

Mihaj 4 - Basically his only touch of the game gifts a late winner to Israel. Hope it was just a bad day.

Veseli/Bajrami N/a

Hysaj passing accuracy was 56% and he lost possession 29 times today.

Is this true

I was saying since the beginning: defenders and DMs are misplacing everything.

I think it's time to replace Hysaj. He is just awful. Play Veseli or something over there.

Then you have can have 1 offensive FB in Balliu, and 1 defensive minded.

Are we sure nothing is going on in his personal life?

The decline he has made over the last years is astronomical and very strange for a player of his age, it's like he forgot how to play football. He's only 28...

For everyone wondering, they count those long balls as lost possession and so this makes sense. Thats all we did

Exactly. Maybe that's the instruction for Hysaj... to boot it up
