"Sylvinho should leave", Ledio Pano on the national team's coach:

Albanian football legend Ledio Pano has criticized the coach of the Albanian national team, Sylvinho, after Albania's 1-1 draw with the modest Latvian team, diminishing hopes for a second place in the group in the World Cup qualifiers.

Pano does not consider Sylvinho as a coach and holds him primarily responsible for both recent results. According to him, the Brazilian has lost support and should leave.

"This national team doesn't convince me. The expectations are high. Many players play in Italy, but they are not showing their worth, or we expect something more from them."

Their quality is also shown by the little minutes they play and in their teams. It was a feeling that we should have won in Latvia. We made a lot of mistakes in terms of mentality, because with the ball we played, we kept it, but in areas that no one cares about. In the qualifiers for the European Championship, Sylvinho did well.

But the contradictions with him started with the European lists. I think he no longer has the support of the Albanian fans and I think the time has come for him to leave. He also bears part of the responsibility.

"He has to read the game and make changes. He is delayed because he is not a coach. He could be a selector. He is learning his trade. I would like him to change. A coach cannot throw the same players ," Pano said on Dita Jonë on A2 CNN.
