Bismihi Ta'ala

We do not like to comment on issues such as this. Shaikh Albani was a prolific Scholar of Hadith who has contributed to this field greatly in the century.

Some Ulamaa have criticised his stance on issues such as Taqleed (following a Madhhab) or his treatment of some of the sound Ahaadith. Other than that, I would not comment on him. After all, Allah will not ask us in our graves about our views on Shaikh Albani, but it is essential to know about Scholars like Shaikh Albani, because of widely available literature he produced.

And Allah knows best.
