An essential difference from Zidane s coach of Real Madrid back then, Alonso s prospects are not optimistic

It is really unwise for Xavi Alonso to choose to take over Real Madrid now. The essential difference between Zidane's entry into Real Madrid back then makes Alonso's coaching prospects very unoptimistic. In fact, in terms of coaching ability, Alonso is stronger than Zidane back then. After all, he has proved himself in Leverkusen. The Bundesliga overturned Bayern, reached the finals of the Europa League, and won three championship trophys in 2 and a half years. These are obviously not comparable to Zidane who has no top coaching experience before the Bernabeu. But now this Real Madrid has an essential difference from the one that was back then. The former is a reconstructed team that has not been targeted for many seasons and has multiple positions that need to be updated. The latter is a mature team that has been carefully built by top coaches such as Mourinho and Ancelotti, and has completed the lineup and tactics.

So Zidane only needed to suppress the locker room and make players of various factions unite, and his combat effectiveness would be very impressive. After all, throughout the entire football history, the peak super giants such as Ronaldo, Bale, Benzema, Kroos, Modric, Marcelo, Ramos, etc. are all among the best in their respective positions. Let’s look at the current Real Madrid team. The gap is not a small one. Kroos’ replacement has not been found. Even if Modric stays at the 40-year-old, it will be difficult for him to shoulder the heavy responsibility. There is a serious shortage of people in the midfield and backcourt, so he needs to make major adjustments.

What's even worse is that the forward line Mbappe, Bears and Rodrigo seem to have a very high value valuation, not inferior to the "BBC" back then, but unfortunately the three of them are not compatible. From the current perspective, Rodrigo is likely to become a victim and be sold. Mbappe, the big boss, is difficult to compete with Ronaldo in terms of his condition and running enthusiasm this season. There is also the second boss Bear. Not only does he not want to be a green leaf like Benzema, but he is also quite different from Benzema in terms of mentality and ability. In fact, selling the bear will be the best solution. It can not only make Mbappe feel at ease to be the boss, but also remove the overlap of position and function on the field, and reduce the price loss behavior inside and outside the field, and there is no need to raise the contract renewal issue. Unfortunately, Mr. Fu seems unwilling to sell him. So although Alonso also has metaphysical protection and the Bernabeu legendary identity bonus, the situation he needs to face is much worse than Zidane back then.

There is another point. Real Madrid is currently in a four-guard system, while Alonso's famous work is three-guard, but he has a lot of plans. Currently, the only central defenders are Asensio and 32-year-old Rudiger are more reliable. But just like before Xavi Alonso coached Leverkusen, no one would be optimistic about him. The situation was difficult, but the result was probably unexpected. I wish Brother Long could bring new miracles to this Real Madrid! If Barcelona wants to return to the peak and create a new dream team, what they need is high-quality opponents. Only in this way can they better stimulate the potential of both sides, just like during the period of Mero's battle!
