Xabi Alonso Is Starting A Revolution 

Neverlosin' should be the new name 🙏🏼

@@pabhz19 Neverlusen

Curse lifted

Well

Assuming Leverkusen wins the Bundesliga this season… I have a feeling it will be difficult to keep Alonso long term just on the $$ potential coming his way

Him winning their first and only league title means whether he stays or leaves he will be a legend🤷🏾‍♂️

He’s a legend already just winning their first league title, That’s more than enough. We all know with all respect he’s aiming for the top clubs where he can implement his tactics and coaching the top players. Assuming his history and nationality the natural path is Liverpool and then end up in Madrid after couple of years.

Bundesliga, DFB Pokal and Europa League 🙏🙏 That would be amazing

So let’s say they win bundesliga, Europa league, dfb pokal a treble right?

the ultimate plot twist

Lookman!

We all know Alonso has a legendary vision.

The already are the champions of Bundesliga! there is no way they can loose that much points

@@paulmelnyk6897 Technically possible, but the way Bayern's playing they may even lose against Köln, but even if they don't, Leverkusen just needs to win against Bremen, which while they shouldn't be underestimated, is not unlikely.

Mannn, if they win the league.. WAY BEYOND EXPECTATIONS

Personally really happy with this storyline from a managerial place. Hope they see out the league. Bundesliga needs some more mix up

Very much agree. Certainly important to learn in a protected environment. Also at Leverkusen the stakes were not too high and he would have had a couple years to develope his coaching even if the results would not have shown. This is why I'm hesitant about a possible Liverpool or Bayern move after this season. Better take the time to develope before going to a big club with more media and performance pressure...

True..

I believe often the Portuguese league is overlooked for talent until that same talent moves into the major markets Even Grimaldo, if he was on another team in the Bundesliga.. I think would still likely not be credited properly. Due to the success of Leverkusen it's impossible to not take notice imo

Letting him leave on free transfer is unfortunate. Could’ve gotten a pretty penny for him

@@TheLethalGuy crazy stuff

I discovered this guy on Football manager 2023 and undoubtedly he was so good at everything. His stats are pretty much on same level as Marcelo but much better at free kicks. How this guy had been undervalued by major clubs is still a mystery to me 😊

He was always on the radar of big teams but no one saw this coming😅

German football is the best, one of the best countries to bet on. So many goals and exciting matches.

@@leonouzso true

I sorta think this would be dope - legit spent their entire lives together basically

😂😂 and who will be the Mourinho coz on the look of things Xabi for me is the master Pep, his style of play, defence and attack is impeccable, actually the entire system is great

@@maelblazer4561 no judges for now mi Amigo 🙏

I think this is prolly the most rumored story for Alonso from a managerial stance ^ I think another question is around… Can Leverkusen bring in top top level talent for the future? This year has been a culmination of fantastic young performers, vets living up to the hype, & obviously the tactical side being aligned… but, for long long term success in football you have to keep adding talent & depth each year

I'm Bayern Fan still I want him to stay at Leverkusen and make them a great great team

He will be madrids coach 100%

You could be right, but... if this didn't go over well... it would 100% be seen as a super risky move just based around the lack of experience as a manager for Alonso

Oh, a lot of clubs thought about Xabi. He was just looking for a mid tier club to develop.

@@jm2270 Hoffenheim, Wolfsburg, Freiburg etc. are considered mid tier in Bundesliga. Leverkusen is more like lower-upper tier.

If he leaves now, he'll still become club legend if they win without losing

I think regardless of him staying, or leaving.. he will be an instant legend if they are able to secure the league

What a year

he for sure gets some due in this - being the risk taker in the aquisition & would have been the person feeling major pressure if it didn't turn out well Shoutout to Simon Rolfes

he played as a youth right?

@@TheFootballRecords Apologies, i've checked this, he doesn't have an youth All Ireland, that was incorrect. He did play the game for a time though

Welcome to the Channel +

Career Mode aficionado knows

Vize = Vice. Why yall overcomplicating it?

I think it's really challenging, cause sometimes you also have the right mix of players & compared to the older days... Managers are given so little time to actually "develop" a squad. So you need to have some signs of instant success with these moves. Especially, at the largest clubs

@@TheFootballRecords in Xabi's case I see that he has always been someone very tactical as a player, had solid leadership qualities and wasn't silent when things were going wrong. On top of that he had patience and intelligence. I think those qualities moved over to the managing side of things really well. Now another thing is that the staff at Leverkusen are definitely doing their jobs, whoever is scouting players needs a raise. They found the best match to Alonso's ideology and tactics. The trainers are doing their job and let's give a round of applause to the Fullbacks causing insane chaos for the opposition this year. If I could study to be a coach I'd do it. It seems stressful but also fun.

Yes sir

Viele Grüße nach Leverkusen 😉

Welcome +

have you been watching the bundesliga this year? thank you for watching the video

Don't forget Pillendreher

True but the manager has to tell them what he needs

Leverkusen is know for signing young talented players and this time they decided to sign players like Xhaka, Grimaldo and Hofmann, which are all really experience players.

some people even translate it as vice

So the proper way to put it is Secondkusen 😂 I like it lol

Welcome Brother

😅😅😅

I would even say the way Alonso played was also tactical. He wasn’t a player that overly relied on superior physical attributes & then it’s actually incredible when you go through the managers he played for

😂

Es triggert mich auch so krass. Ich hab auf 0,5 Wiedergabegeschwindigkeit runtergestellt um nachzugucken und der Typ sagt tatsächlich Bayern , statt Bayer 😂😂😂

​@@haulvonpindenburg8183 Athletico Madrid 😂

lol lets goooo

God really has his favorites

Welcome 🫡

Perhaps more of a slang created outside of Germany then Either way, they are poised to rid themselves of that nickname this season

How so?
