We have a Kosovon in Bunjaku who we all rate very highly. A proper playmaker who has a question mark over his physical game.
Pursuing a policy of recruiting Albanians would be madness though, they have to get themselves noticed like everyone else.
Great article.
Albanians and Bosnians are usually very technical players, down in Scandinavia too (where I used to live).
It's a real shame talentless English oafs get away with possesseing absolutely not technique at all. You need to have all the basic technique to become a footballer. But it seems coaches just give away professional contracts.
By the way, Somalis are another one of the more skillful among people too. Similar to Albanians.
I agree with you that the youth systems are flawed. We focus on results too much. And therefore the youth system is full of kids who hit puberty early and can dominate the smaller players rather than kids who are technically amazing but yet to bulk up. Wrong way around but at least we seem to get a bit of both at Arsenal. See Wilshere, Szczesny, Frimpong. They've got enough of both sides.
Yes we have Bunjaku who's in our U18s and from what i've seen he's the best technical player to come through our academy since Jack. As mentioned question marks over his physique and quite injury prone but a wonderful talent. He was born here in Romford though.
I'm Turkish but I'm not v good

Where abouts in Turkey are you from?
P.S. I'm Turkish and I'm VERY good.
I'm english but I suck
Sometimes though my Dutch part of me appears and I'm amazing though
Dad from near Ayvalik but moved to Istanbul (Besiiktas btw )
Mum from Kibris
I'm from Kent/London
Siz?
Dad's from Nevsehir and my mum's Azeri
I'm English and I used to suck as I couldn't shoot or strike a ball properly. But every now and then I'd have 10 minutes of being completely unplayable I was that good...until I realised I was doing well that is.
Now I'm properly skillful but with no end product.
I'm Gervinho basically.
Nah albanians are rubbish. I know 2 from school and neither are up to much
