ANALYSIS: Personal issues and no meritocracy or Duke commands, what's wrong
Silvinho with his assistants

Perhaps never before have there been so many doubts and disputes about a national team list. Silvinho has surprised everyone with the names called for the two games of September in the League of Nations against Ukraine and Georgia.

A surprise that mostly goes in the negative sense, because there are many who do not find an explanation for some of the Brazilian's choices. Even ironically, social networks are filled with opinions, whether the list announced by the AFL was made by the Rossoneri coach himself, or someone else. What's wrong with this list? Many things seem really senseless about the decisions of the one who took us to the European for the second time, as the first in the group.

PERSONAL MATTERS - The names of Myrto Uzun and Keidi Bares were again missing from the list, proving that their exclusion from the European Championship in Germany is only a personal matter. Of the coach, or of the institution where he is employed. Unprofessional decision for two players who play at high levels, such as Spanish football, to continue to be ignored.

They're playing, they're in good physical shape and they're still young: no reason to leave them out other than a personal grudge. When he announced the list of the European, Silvinho said that he preferred Abrash's grit in a major competition before Bare... But now, in the League of Nations, why do you need a 34-year-old who plays in Switzerland, before a 27-year-old who plays in Spain? !

Uzuni is out again, while Cikalleshi is withdrawn, Broja is injured and Daku is disqualified for one game. It is technically, tactically and morally inexplicable that Uzuni is not used in the attack, but a player who last season played with a relegated Superior team.

Uzuni and Bare were actually two well-known issues in the National, the continuation was expected to some extent, while the biggest disappointment is that we may have a third issue: Ernest Muçi. Because there is no sports logic to understand how a Besiktas player is not called, for which Premier League clubs are ready to pay a lot! Albania never has the luxury of leaving out three players with great potential like Uzuni, Bare and Muçi out of personal grudge.

WITHOUT MERITOCRACY - The presence of some names from the Albanian championship in Silvinjo's list has made many people open their eyes. Not that it is surprising that he takes players from our championship, on the contrary, he has done very well. But he cannot take "whatever he can get his hands on", because the elections are made on the basis of certain criteria, on the basis of sports meritocracy.

The message that Silvinho's list conveyed to the players of the Albanian championship, but also others who play abroad and are waiting for an invitation to the red and black, was completely demoralizing. Except for those who saw the name on that list. For example, Hadroj (nothing personal with him), right back, has never had a better season than Fangaj and currently does not have the form of the latter. Why is Partizan's player called and not Egnatia's, the reigning champion team?!

The call of Zeka and Spahi also raises the same questions. Why is not called, for example, Nazmi Gripshi, the absolute protagonist with the Balkans and finally the starter with Astana, who went to the groups of the Conference League? Why isn't Indrit Tuci called, who scored with Sparta Prague and also went to the same competition as Grpishi? No one knows what was in Silvinjo's head, but this time his list is "unreadable"./ PANORAMA SPORT
