He is definitely still the best passer in his team and he knows it
Indeed
He's probably the best passer in the whole Bundesliga lmao
He has just hard time to admit he is still better at passing as coach, than his players are.😂
A Midfielder who is coached by Guardiola, Mourinho, rafa benetiz and Ancelotti it's obvious that he'd be an amazing Technician on and off the field. VAMOS XABI
Lampard was coached by 3 of the four and you really can’t say the same about him, so it’s also about the way he played the game and his footballing intelligence and analysis. those managers are an important part of it but it’s not obvious at all
Benitez in between those three is like Rashford with Mbappe and Haaland
And also Vicente del Bosque
@@yagesh287Benítez won the CL, Europa League, Copa Italia, La Liga, and more. He's not some bump, he was a great manager, one of the very best in the 2000's, show some respect
Does not always work like that bro, I think you need the talent for it too.
One of the most intelligent and classy midfielders in the world,what a outstanding career for him as a player and a manager
PRETTY SURE HE'S STILL THE BEST PASSER BUT JUST DOESNT WANT TO SAY IT. HUMBLE LEGEND
He dosent want to admit his better at passing, than his own players are.😂
The dance between attackers and defenders is a ballet of athleticism and intellect, showcasing the poetry of football in its purest form.
Exactly what I was going to say! 😜
Wishing you all a fantastic day! Keep bringing in more amazing videos like this for the viewers. Cheers! ⚽🌟@@bundesliga

Even though I'm a Valencia fan, I've always admired Alonso. And now I like him, intelligent, smart, not arrogant. I really wish him every success in his coaching career). He's incredibly good
Wym eventho im a Valencia fan? What's the correlation
@@itaachiii Maybe because Alonso is a decent human being and Valencia is mainly made of racist shitheads
@@itaachiii Because Xabi Alonso never played for Valencia, even in his youth, yet he started his career at Real Sociedad.
Xabi is a midfielder and a manager. Bro needs a shapeshifter card in EA SPORTS FC 24
Love at the end that he still knows he’s the best passer haha. I remember a similar interview about Steve Gerrard at Rangers when the players were saying he would demonstrate passes they couldn’t make. Must be an interesting dynamic
He was once a ‘pass master’ at Liverpool.
So, I miss my Liverpool days so much.
You still have that with Trent
Xabi was called “master of two touch” from first time play in sociedad..
First touch receiving the ball, the second touch releasing killer pass..
@@Deathmare235 Trent actually reminds me the most of Xabi because he attempts alot more driven long pass Xabi style. I do hope he eventually just shifts to a CDM as it fits him more. Although I would say Xabi was obviously better because he did switchups and in general had more passing range which Trent doesn't do as much.
@@tamim3319which is why i hope he goes back to Liverpool and coach Trent.
@@Deathmare235u can’t compare xabi passes with Trent if u really watched xabi in the national team and any club he played for u would know that xabi is the better passer, xabi would give u 10 out of 10 long or short passes especially his long passes while Trent would still give 8 out of 10
It also helps having a coach that was a great player. This man won it all and he wasn’t the fastest guy but he was always 2 steps ahead of everyone mentally. When someone of his caliber speaks you listen and try to take in all the info he gives. World Cup winner, 2x euro cup winner, 2x ucl winner. Absolute legend.
My childhood hero and idol as a Madrid citizen and RMA supporter, such an inspiration and im so glad its going well for good old maestro Xabi
Gloryhunter
@@LitoYTB ?
@@LitoYTBHe literally said he's a local fan? How does that make him a glory hunter?
@@LitoYTB man wants him to support rayo vallecano or getafe 💀💀💀💀
@@aeg8437 well since my dad is from the Chamartin district I think I well have the right to be a RM supporter...😅
Unfortunately the players who score are praised and remembered better. But the ones like Xabi Alonso are the quintessence of football. Intellect, precision and hard work on the pitch.
He Speaks better English than the entire population of liverpool ..
Xabi is one of the best.
He's making a BIG impression 🤩
All credit to Xabi and Leverkusen hope they win the league. I would love to see him as a Liverpool manager one day down the line when his contract ends.
his silence said it all 😂 HE'S STILL THE BEST PASSER
Always were a fan of Alonso as a player. He was magical in his passing and how he read the game. Happy to see him coaching and achieving amazing results.
Not only he as that understanding of how the game plan and how the tactics he use. He could execute it and make the players believe what they are doing can bring them big thing….. Amazing personality and a football genius too always my idol 😢😢😢 missing you
So bad when you left Liverpool fc😔 midfield master.
Now after klopp has left....he is our only hope....XABI IS HOMECOMING
Xabi Alonso
Simply The Best Coach
Fantastic and Fenomenal 🤩
Very Special One ❤️
A wonderful player and a fantastic coach 👏
Loved him as a Player at Madrid and Instrumental in La Decima. Enjoy Bundesliga while you can, I can certainly see him at Madrid and if not Premier League.
Very intelligent coach
He's got some very bright ideas! 💡
Want him to be lfc next manager not a fan of how klopp lfc plays football.
wish xabi nothing but the best, hope our path cross, ynwa
A very intelligent player! I like him a lot, especially he is a Liverpool legend/as well as with Real/. Wish him all the best!
This man understands football, he’s what wee need at anfield.
I think the boys know who they have in front of them. He is only 42, there are players who are the same age and are still actively playing.
my favorite player of all time XABI ALONSO!!! great as a player and even better as a coach! glad to see success with him :)
I met him once and took a pic with him. Nice guy
You got good taste
@@ivan_2k1 Xabi so good actually because of elite managers like Pep, Ancelotti. That's why I love bundesliga so much. Bundesliga in recent years I see far too many good players and coaches from Marco Reus, Muller, Lewandowski to Musiala, Guirassy, Bonniface, Wirtz, Brandt, Havertz, etc. Coaches: from Klopp to Flick, Nagelsmann and now Xabi
Xabi = Perfection with Pass
Xabi Alonso has to be one of the most underrated managers of all time
I watched Leverkusen when I was in Germany, against Mainz in Mainz. They looked very impressive and the way they knew when to change tempo, directness and pressing intensity, was very impressive. If they can keep Xabi, they can push upwards even more and I'd love for it to be tough for Bayern to win their titles against such quality consistently
Great player and now a coach
BAYER 04 in the near future they will be nightmare to play against Xabi is doing a good job
Wow so cool , fab job he’s done , love it !
"I like to see my team play the way I like to play", and he played a lot!
Most underrated Trainer/Player off all time!
Granit Xhaka. It surprised me that he was part of the incredible story at Leverkusen. Mainly because of the turmoil that seemed to follow him at Arsenal under Arteta. He seemed damaged goods there but to be flourishing under Alonso.
The great xabi alonso 🇪🇸⚽️
The Maestro, a true Virtuoso of football.
Those pings at the end, so satifying.
FSG!!! DO YOUR THING!!
Nah that clip pass at the end was too classy 😂 if we didn’t have klopp I would want this man at Liverpool
Bro will see him at Anfield next season
Xabi Alonso is cooking 😮
the way hes explaining i can clearly see what his team is trying to do. but its not easy to do. because everyone has to be on the same page and be quiick to react and do the right thing and know exactly what to do to capitalize. amazing strategic football and strategic players.
We loved Xabi at Liverpool. Incredible player. 🙂⚽
That sneaky smile at the end
best coach in bundesliga⚫🔴⚫🔴
What a guy
so happy for xhaka, hope he wins this year
Oh god i miss watching him play in white. Take good care of him guys. Real Madrid legend, football legend in the making still.
Waiting for you to come back to Liverpool in the future.
YnWa
Xabi❤💪⚽
He's transformed Leverkusen! 🤩
Lesson from this awesome video:
By embodying dedication, determination, and patience, you have the power to completely transform the fortunes of both your family and your community.
Barmenia had amazing coach 😊
Welcome to Liverpool ❤❤
Would be an absolute dream for me as a fan if we could convince Xabi to come to Liverpool after Klopp decides to pass the reins to a successor...
You'll know he's a living legend if you are his player and half his age but cant pass half as good as he is still. You would think what if you had him as a teammate up front with those killer passes.
Hope some day he would come back to Liverpool as the manager
😅😅
Oh wow what a great comment. You'll be swapping those laughing emojis for crying emoji's when he joins LFC in the summer you melt job. @@eledz9114
Liverpool fc legend 🔥🔥🔥
the next Liverpool coach 💯
Hope he comes to madrid, but i would like to see him stay for one more year. Leverkusen in the champions league would be really intersting.
Future Liverpool manager in shaa Allah
Still long way to go Xabi it's just half the season
and they've won
The only manager I've seen use the gengen-pressing and the ancelotti approach so far
Ancelotti approach?
@@Deathmare235 it's attacking with rotation of position in full flow
There is also Pep's positional play, he mentioned it.
I am so happy this man escaped from Liverpool unharmed ❤
Hopefully cu soon home @ Madrid & fully utilize the potential of all our young talents❤
Who would have thought two childhood friends from San Sebastian would be leading their teams as a manager to the top of their leagues...
It’s time to come home to Liverpool Xabi ❤ YNWA
Hoping he holds out to replace Klopp at Liverpool. I understand the lure of Madrid, but I think Liverpool then Madrid is a better route. A lot of pressure at Madrid that could dent his confidence if it doesn't work out.
We need him at Anfield
Next liverpool coach
❤
Dis man 100x better den Xavi as coach 🫡
Liverpool fans are stalking xabi in the creepiest fashion right now
Leyend midfield player.
A Spaniard coaching in Germany speaking English. I love earth.
Also he speaks german
He is So handsome😅❤
I need this guy at Chelsea !!!! Madrid just renewed Angelotti’s contract so we have one less team to compete for his signature
Alonso has contract until 2026. Madrid renewed ancelotti till 2026. Just saying...
@@bangoagroupmadrid1gives us time to buy him out of his current contract
Despite he played for Madrid, he is still a good lad.
LFC next manager.......watch the space
Yes he's
I hope he succeeds Klopp!
I speak English, I can fully understand his comments, why the subtitles? I would challenge any native English speaker (unless you're American) not to understand each word he says.
Liverpool manager in 4 years
i hope flo doesnt have curse like ballack
Alonso using his deep lying playmaking role as coach 😂 one of the greatest midfielders bringing all his experience on to the pitch
Maybe Xavi is the next liverpool manager after klopp
Opposite approach to Chelsea. Chelsea have bought good players with an incredible ceiling but at too young to be consistent and relied upon with such pressure, Leverkusen signed consistent efficient players. It shows in the way both teams play. Not digging Chelsea, the talent is phenomenal and will come good im sure, but with the way they scouted, it would always happen.
If after pep goes and they get xabi its over for the next 10 years again
La Xabineta
Welcome back to your beloved liverpool
Damn he’s good eh? YNWA
Send this vid to terzic😂
Pelatih Bayer Leverkusen 🇩🇪
Xabi Alonso
Leverkusen to finish the season undefeated in all competitions. You just wait.
If you're gonna add subtitles anyway, just let the guy talk about football in his native language!
He calls him Flo? 🤣
Is he walking the path of Pep?
Really hope this man replacing xavi in Barcelona because he really fits it on the philosophy, but when seeing the release clause i thought it's impossible.
Alonso is a Real Madrid legend. No way he’ll ever go to Barca, only if he’s truly desperate but I highly doubt.
Давай в Реал, браток!))
Папа-Карло устал)
Damn ! Mourinho was right
