So you all are that confident ehh. One thing you should know Armenia is not an easy team to beat . They have a solid team , but i would therefore expect a 1:1 tie at home.

Trust me I have watched Armenian games, they are far from solid apart from their attack/goalkeeper. This is a team that lost to a France B team 3-0 at home, not saying they are completely horrible, but Armenian league players make up most of their squad, and the drop off in talent from their front 3 to their back 4 in their line up is astounding.

they are like playing an Albanian league team + Mikhtaryan. A draw at home would be a disaster against them.

Agree with Genti and Dallku. Armenia is the team to beat twice. Althrough i don't think Kaçe and Aliji have a chance to start . I have a feeling De Biasi will surprise us with Bulku as DM

Can Gashi play as CAM?

Meh, I think we're gonna draw as well at home, and win away.

De Biasi can't do shit when we're expected to be the attacking team. Even against Malta we had to score from a corner and Meha's 40 meter shot.

Hope the coach and players share just a little of this pessimism so they become more cautious and less euphoric while we meet them. But still the quality and the physio/performance of our legionaries abroad is way superior of that of Armenia

Although some albanian outlets are reporting that DB will call up the 3 new players(Gymcity, Avdijaj, Aliji) who knows how reliable they are. I will happy if Gymcity actually gets capped because he's a quality player that can help us now. Avdijaj and Aliji are nice players for the future and it makes too much sense capping them up..

Some players must get dropped though even if the injuries of Lila and Salihi open up two slots. We will have Basha and Sadiku coming back from injury and Gashi and Meha are going to be on the list. Dare I say the era of Bulku and Vila running the show is over?

Maybe Bulku will not be included in the list of players but he can still come anyways as a good luck charm. He's in Albania so he can just drive to the stadium and call the shots with De Biasi on the bench.

First of all, hats off to Simboli for putting the forum together. Much nicer design layout then the other one.

This is a must win game for us. Do you know if tv channels on ALBTV steam the game live? Was thinking about getting it just for the matches.
