The cloud talks about the list of invited players for the friendly: With Italy a special thrill

Especially did the Italian technician stop during the match with Italy, which will be a special, exciting challenge and a prideful motive for him. Reja says she wishes to have all the players available and explained the situation with injuries, but also with players missing since they were not allowed by clubs to join the national, FSHF reports.

As for championship players “Abisnet Superiere”, the coach appreciates the four invited players, while adding that there are other players who were in the last two friendlies who may be part of the National and in the future.

The emotions of the friendly with Italy “impact on Italy will certainly be very exciting for me and Albania. I've spent my entire career and we're mine in Italy, it's clear that this is a cause of pleasure and pride to play against Italy. I'm going to experience great and beautiful emotions when I get into the field and I hear two hymns together. It's a normal and beautiful thing for someone like me when I'm old after working with Italian teams.

After the elimination of Italy from the World, I learned from the media that they were seeking opposers to play friendly. I immediately called President Duke and told him to try to organize a friendly one with them and after negotiating everything went well and Italy agreed to play with Albania. Understandably, it is also a prideary motive for Albania to expect Italy”.

Other Supernor players for the future? There are other players from the Albanian championship who deserve the chance to be in the National country except those I have invited. I couldn't gather everyone because my project is to come to Albania more often to monitor the players, but of course if the clubs give me permission I would like to do some training sessions with 23-24 players, from the young. I'd like to constantly include 2, 3 or 4 players from the championship even in the official match. Not only those on the list but others who played in the last two friendlys have proved to be valuable to the National. Clearly, the pace is different, the load in training has been a little large, since the time available was small. I was afraid that they would not be in good physical condition with Qatar, but they were all extraordinary. They were energetic, they had the right incentives in the field, but they made a good show, and we didn't deserve to lose with Qatar. We had some opportunities for goals and a net penalty that was denied by the judge, and so did we in the friendly with Saudi Arabia. I would like to get a better result from Qatar, which showed it was a team stronger than Saudi Arabia. We produced beautiful football and had the right aggressiveness in the field by all players. There are 3-4 other players I've created a positive sense of and will be able to see again maybe by March to create the right team”.

Will they play Italy? If I invited them, it means I certainly trust them. Everyone has the same chance to play against Italy. I've got a lot of players playing with clubs today, and we need to watch on Monday and Tuesday when they get to where they are. I have to take two players for one role, if there are physical problems for one of them, then the other will play. I am convinced that even Albanian championship players are able to play against Italy, even for 90 minutes with high intensity, and they have shown it to me in the last two matches. I am calm in this respect, emotions will be a little bit bigger this time, but this is part of the game and they'll get used to it.

Is there innovation on the contract? We have to end these two matches and then we'll be able to assess the situation and find the time to meet and speak calmly. With President Duka we have a very good report and mutual respect and we will talk about what is best for Albania, this is more important than just being a coach or another. If it's going to be the opportunity to continue, I'll be very pleased, so I'm willing to do that, but I'm not the president of the FSHF and he'll decide or decide for Albania's benefit.

The result for the friendly with Italy? I know “Manchin well, he's not coming here for a walk and he's probably going to try a new player, but he should be considering the situation of the players playing this weekend in Serie A. Of course, Italy is a scary team, we know their values, but I care about Albania holding a good match and being up to it. The result depends on the players going down to the playing field, I'd like a 2-2 or 3-3 draw, but it's not up to me. It will be a very motivating game inside, in my opinion Mancini will try some young players who have not had many spaces in the past, and the fact that they play two friendly matches within three days leads him to manage his forces even to the challenge with Austria. I'll see the players who are better physically, just like I'll do”.

What are the values of two friendly people? These two fights are very important, I don't have a chance to see the players often because when they come we always have little time available and in such matches I think better. I'm sorry we have a lot of injuries, I have a long list here. Balliu has few problems and remains set. The shipment, Gjasula, Manaj, Cekic, Veselin and Strakosha are damaged. Then there are problems even clubs, which do not let players go. It's Balaj, Chillashi or Uzun, who has a match and is in question, and they don't leave. Ajetin also can't come, we still don't know if Atlanta leaves us, since she's just recovered and the club fears any damage. They're important players, above all, to play with Italy. I'd like to throw a team of expert players into the field at international matches. I have to do the math this evening after the games are over and then I'll draw the conclusions. I'm sure the players that will be wrong will give their best, even those coming from the Albanian championship. We have Hadron, Beatrin, Stone or even Abbas, who will be on the bench and who I can rely on if I need”.
