He definitely seems checked out. Doesn't even look like he wants to play. Burnley spent all that money on him and they don't trust him in the league at all. In these cup games against 3rd division teams he's dropping stinkers.

That injury did a number on him. Maybe more mentally than physically.

He is not at the level of the Premier League right now and I've been saying for several years he needs to seek a move to a lower level league before he puts the nail in the coffin on his career.

He has been inactive for almost 3 years now and this will make another season where he is hardly playing. He needs a career resurrection in one of the leagues like Turkey, Belgium, Holland etc.

He just needs consistent game time.

At Southampton he earned a starting spot by taking advantage of his sub appearances. His coach at that time Hasenhuttl also challenged and criticized him publicly because he wasn't training hard and wasn't fighting for every ball. Since then Broja took the challenge and thrived.

Right now he's not showing any signs of life. He started twice in cup games and was the worst player on the field. It's safe to say that he's not doing anything in training either if he can't get any minutes in the league. With the NT he plays like he just woke up from a nap. Sure he's out of position but you can see his energy levels are rock bottom. Even Hysaj said that he's in his own head after the game.

Broja is clearly holding back cause he doesn't want to get injured get again, which is understandable. With more playtime, he will get better.

Yes you can see it when he pulls out of fully committing into a challenge, it’s a mental thing.

I watched the game, it wasn’t as bad as people are making it out to be, he should’ve scored but decided to take the shot first time on his left foot which I suppose isn’t the worst thing. But then after he got a couple other shots off, but yeah the more he plays , the more confident he will be and hopefully that’s when some goals start coming in.

He hasn’t had a full season of football in 3/4 years now, because we have no one else like him expecting him to be the guy who scored vs Hungary isn’t realistic. Gotta give him this year to get back into it.

The “checked out” comments are just straight crazy though.

Arber Hoxha on fire
Berisha with a nice assist

as for Gripshi , idk man, that’s such a bad league and he plays for the best team but looking at his goals and they are quality finishes .

Might as well give him a chance, I don't think he's worse than Bajrami and Muçi.

Can't even hate on the Kazakh league when you see Kairat qualify to the Champions league by eliminating Celtic. And FC Astana is considered the better team out of the two.
