Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen REVOLUTION!
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 05. 2024
- Xabi Alonso is rapidly cultivating something special at Bayer Leverkusen. The former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich star, is now shaping up to be one of the finest managerial prospects in all of world football. He’s even been given the nickname “the professor” why, Because in the space of a year, he has revolutionized Bayer Leverkusen from 17th place…the depths of relegation…to European football and now…top of the Bundesliga.
But it’s not just the results. The brand of football being produced is supremely entertaining, averaging 4 goals per game…more than any other side in Europe. His immediate success in management has led to speculation that he could become the next Real Madrid or Liverpool boss down the track.
In this video I'll deep diving into the Spaniards transition from elite football into the coaching realm and the subsequent success that has followed. Hope you enjoy!

![[FULL REACTION] Bayer Leverkusen complete FIRST-EVER unbeaten Bundesliga season 😱 | ESPN FC](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/NS20tPpKquk/mqdefault.jpg)
Update: Bayer Leverkusen are Bundesliga Champions! Bayern’s 11 year domestic dominance has been decimated by Xabi Alonso’s unbelievable Leverkusen side. Amazing story. One of the all time greats 👏
4 months later they are still undefeated and 5 pts clear, what a squad Xabi Alonso built 🔥🔥🔥
now 8 points baaaaaaaaby
Now 12
gg Bayern Munich, wp Leverkusen
@@Random_Stuff_LoL 10 homie
Till now 42 match undefeated
Him and His best friend Arteta were considered coaches on the pitch during their playin years. Obviously their brilliant football iQ translated well into the bench.
alonso was levels above arteta tho...arteta is an everton legend and alonso liverpool, madrid, and bayern legend 3 best teams in europe...
As a player, he played for Bigger teams than Arteta, the quality of his teammates were great. Arteta was a Magician at Rangers and Everton not to forget he was instrumental at Arsenal that had a great crop of quality too. He was a great member of that squad alongside Ozil, Santi carzola and Alexis who all worked their Socks off to end Arsenal Trophy 🏆 drought. That said he also had been a name since his days at PSG
The fact that Pep Jose And Ancelotti taught him is insane
Don’t forget Rafa at the peak of his powers.
Rafa 😂
@@jacobjacob7384rafa was an elite manager, he won la Liga with Valencia twice
Don’t forget Rafa he won the laliga against a star studded Barcelona and Real Madrid side with a mediocre Valencia side
And the champions league
As a Leverkusen Fan i appreciate this masterpiece of a video.
Great work 👌
Thanks so much bro! Hearing that kind of feedback from a Leverkusen fan means a lot! 🤝
I can only agree! Great Video, thanks for covering leverkusen!
♠♥
Big Thanks and Shoutout to this Boy! Great Video about our Team. Forza Bayer!
Insane to think that Xabi may still prevent Harry Kane getting a major trophy because this start by Xabi's team is no flash on the pan, its the real deal.
the only hope for Kane now it's the Champions League
very hilarious if it happens
@@neviregi5813Even funnier if he breaks Lewandoski record, and still no trophy.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Most underrated IC.
The replies are even better.. I will be on the floor!
Did u watch todays match ? Complete dominance. Kane was no where to be seen 😂😂😂
Grimaldo was a steal, he’s incredible
Jose never miss with his predictions 🔥
Xabi Alonso is destined to manage a big football club in the future. But I would love to see him stay at Bayer Leverkusen for 2-3 seasons to at least leave a mark on the Bundesliga. They definitely need depth and they can perhaps break Bayern's dominance. It would better if Alonso wins a silverware and then leave for a bigger role.
He has to stay in Leverkusen and become a Legend 😎
Likewise, there's no need for him to rush into another environment so soon. Stay at Leverkusen and achieve something great first!
I am pretty sure he will be real madrids manager next season.
Leverkusen has more depth in their squad than Bayern, just take a look at Bayern's bench vs Galatasaray for example.
Agreed. Stay until klopp's contract expires at LFC. Then Alonso at Reds would be a dream reunion.
I want Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga this year. I love Xabi. He deserves all his accolades.
-Bayern fan ❤
Hard not to love the man. As cool as they come 😎
*Fake Bayern fan
its not always about winning. it's about appreciating the game@@phoenix02x
Your wish is granted this weekend with some games to be played
Rumor is Liverpool is looking for a new manager at the end of the season
As a Leverkusen fan, this man is so fucking good
Could be a special period for the club!
Former Midfield players come coach read and apply football tactics easy and on point coz their roles as players helped the play defense and mid at the same time which for me is the engine of any football .
looking forward to see him on the touchline at anfield......once again. Welcome home Xabi
Please don‘t forget about Simon Rolfes, our new „GM“. He came in after Rudy Völler went out - with a banger, bringing Alonso to Leverkusen.
As a former *very loyal* Leverkusen Player himself, Rolfes had multiple chances winning at least something with Leverkusen. But they always came short. As a life-long fan, i feel like he maybe want to redeem hinself. So with that being said, this guy got a passionate reason to be there and make the team capable of finally winning a cup or a even the Bundesliga for the first time ever.
Lets get it guys ⚫️🔴Eine Stadt, ein Traum, ein Verein. Schwarz Rot Allez
Die Stadt der Verein das einzige was Zählt. Let’s go! Bin sehr stolz auf die wahnsinnig gute Stimmung und Unterstützung heim wie auswärts diese Saison. Weiter so auch von unserer Seite. :) Danke an jeden der das Leverkusen Stadion zu einem Wohlfühlort echter Fußballliebe macht!
Leverkusen were not nearly as bad as is being made out before Xabi came in. They had been great the year before under Seoane but they had a particularly unlucky run, with Wirtz injured and Schick completely fallen of his bike (which is not an expression that exists, but you get what I mean). Xabi did not have to raise a team from the rubble, he came into a team that had a much better ground structure than it may appear from their league position at the time. That's not to say he is not doing a great job. He is, that is abundantly clear. What I'm saying is that he did not turn a soapbox into a Porsche. The car that was in the garage was a decent fast sports car already but after it had hit a mean bump in the road its motor was hiccuping and spluttering badly. He sorted that out. He had Wirtz coming back and recruitment has been ace this transfer window. So yeah give Alonso all the credit he deserves but there's credit due to others at Leverkusen, too.
Loved it as a Leverkusen Fan.
What Rolfes is doing with the club is at least as impressive as Alonso. So many smart transfers (Grimaldo, Hofmann, Boniface, etc) and vital contract extensions (Frimpong, Palacios, Tapsoba, etc)
Yes, i can agree with all comments here and just to add it, as a Leverkusen fan i thought that Seoane did a really great job before, like you have already shown. I go even so far to say that if Wirtz hasn't been injured, Seoane would still be the coach. Wirtz and Schick were one of the top duos in the european top 5 leagues. Surely not on that level as Xavi, but Seoane did better than every coach for years at Leverkusen and was really unlucky with Wirtz and the bad start in the season. So despite all deservwd praises to Xavi i got already a feeling in a few games, that Lev has still issues when Wirtz isn't playing and if he gets injured again for a longer period, we will see how Xavi will deal with that
Falling from bike means 🤔
You love your metaphors mate! 😂
5:35 great mindset
I'm a bayern fan and I respect leverkususen
I absolutely loved him as a player and still love him now
Can't wait for Bayer in the UcL next season
One month down the line he still tops the bundesliga. Kudos to him.
Another growing team is Bologna under Thiago Motta, also a brilliant coach. They are 10 games unbeaten.
ex players cant coach shit
But are they good on fifa? 😂
@@user-uq8xv2fp2lobv not
I dont mean to disrespect any team but they are bad do you think a rising team can beat one of the big clubs like rma/ bar/ or man city
06.04.2024 Xabi Alonso Extended the Contract With Bayer Leverkusen till 2026 also still undefeated in all competitions and sit 16 points clear of Bayern Munich with 1 win away from coronation of their prelific dominance in the Bundesliga
It's just crazy, that this team shows best start in history of club, even better that Early 2000-s Leverkusen with likes of Ballack, Lucio, Berbatov and others. Just shows how good of a project they have, with likes of Wirtz, Frimpong, Boniface, Grimaldo, Hofmann and some other good players they have
He's an amazing game reader during his playing days and quick to perceive danger and could easily intercept it by giving instructions or making the block by himself which isn't a good thing for opponents
This is what I call a real tactical manager ❤❤
Your presentation is one of the best I've ever heard,,, magnificent 🎉🎉🎉
Xabi Alonso to coach Madrid will be a historical thing, I'm 💯% certain it will happen soon.
Wow, thank you!
@@DMac__ sorry mate he’s going to Liverpool, Madrid has a new contract wit ancelotti
5 months later they are still undefeated and 13 pts clear, what a squad Xabi Alonso has built
4:48 Ik exactly why he put that clip 💀💀
He has done it...... reformed the whole team.....this week they will show the world west ham cant stop them.....their form is simply outrageous......they are 🔥 up ....
Im a liverpool fan and loved xabi alonso when he played at Liverpool but his rebuild of bayern leverkusen is just one of the best ive ever seen he will be one of the best coaches in the world (loved the vid btw keep it up)
Since the return of Florian Wirtz:
Games with him: 28*
Games without him: 10
Games won with him: 18
Games won without him: 5
Games lost with him: 5
Games lost without him: 2
Draws with him: 5
Draws without him: 3
Points per game with him: 2,1
Points per game without him: 1,8
G+A: 19
This guy is only 20 and just came back from one of the worst possible injuries for football players.
*In the starting 11
The kid is quite simply a freak! He has all the potential to reach the very top of world football. I think him, Musiala and Jude will alll be generational players!
@@DMac__ Those 3 + Mbappe, Halland, Gavi, Vini Jr. will smash the Football over Years. So much Talent and Worldclass is unbeatable. Its the Rising of a new Era after CR7 and Leo. Iam enjoying watching this
LET XABI ALONSO COOK 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He is the future goat of managers
I'm a Bayern Munich fan and I have nothing but admiration for how Leverkusen is currently so good and how well it harmonizes and works with Xabi and Leverkusen and I have the highest respect. From 17th place to 6th place and this season I even see it on a par with Bayern, it's just crazy, crazy what Rolfes and Such a jump to one of the most sought-after trainers in the world is crazy and watching them and how dominant they are is crazy. I watched the game against Köln recently and Leverkusen were really strong and I still had the feeling that they didn't show everything, haha and it was 3-0 for Leverkusen. It's just crazy and I hope they manage to be consistently strong this season and it won't be like back then when they really had the chance to win a treble but ultimately Schalke (DFB Cup), BVB (Bundesliga Championship) and Real (Champions League Final) they won the cups back then even though Leverkusen had a strong season that was ultimately wasted because some players got injured in the Final phase
HE COOKEDD
Getting good at this mate
Xabi Alonso become a champion in bundesliga is remarkable wow I never thought xabi will write history as such in the top level for just 18months and for the fact that his side unbeaten till champions unbelievable I believe he is the next pep to dominate
I as a neutral of Germany 🇩🇪 league football, really am inspired by how amazing Xabi’s Bayer Leverkusens, just watch a few recent games they are classics 😮💨🏁✅
I miss Xhaka but also happy for him, he played last year the best in his career and is in a team very excited in their play and success
This was way better than the sports news on tv. Good content my man. SUBSCRIBED
You just earned yourself a new subscriber from South Africa. Good content mate.
A lot of this Bayer Leverkusen side have players with the style of play and technical ability to play in a Barca team (saying that as a culér) but then again they are world class enough to play in any elite side .
Xabi Alonso is Real Madrid’s next long-term manager. His spell with leverkeusen will definitely be one to watch 🙌🏻 the greatest DM of his generation alongside Busquets🙏🏻
I hope he wins the Bundesliga and someday becomes manager for Liverpool 🙏🏾
Best choice of successor to Klopp.
One of the few who could fill that huge hole once klopp quits
@@kopsywna9000already to go to Real Madrid
I would love to see Bayer Leverkusen winning the Bundesliga as well. Would be a breath of a fresh air
der beste trainer mittlerweile in der welt
Alonso is doing very well. I wish he wins the Bundasliga
Mate thanks for another great video, first one I watched was Ange Postecoglou, now about the Xabi. I pay you my respect! Definitely worth subscribing!
Xabi Alonso ❤
I don't know any other player that is loved that much as xabi is in every single club he has been
Loved in Madrid, Liverpool, Munich and he continues as coach in Leverkusen
As a German who watches Bundesliga every week, I can say that I have not seen a better German team the last 10 years, except Bayern. Right now they are playing way better than Bayern and have better statistics in almost every category
That's incredible to hear. Watched them once again in the Europa League during the week and was blown away by their quality. Even with a somewhat second string team, they were supremely entertaining. Florian Wirtz and Victor Boniface in particular were incredible. So much to love about this team!
Dortmund 2023 has also been really strong
@@JangoAC lol
@@Intensive444 They are on first place of the Bundesliga in the year 2023, so what are you laughing about
@@moxictasculinity the YEAR 2023! Why is that so hard to understand. A years starts in January and ends in December. So far they have been doing really well.
can not wait to see him as Real Madrid coach in the future 🔥 ( I hope its next season😅)
Xabi should not have even retired from football, because he was such a great midfielder. his combinatin with Iniesta, Xavi would go on to be one of the most lethal combinations ever.
This video is World Class... Top stuff
How do you only have 100k subscribers man, that was remarkable. Thank you for this amazing piece of entertainment 👍
Wonderful Video, great story telling! Subbed!
He is destined for greatness I think but I hope he Will remain at leverkusen at least another season. Great video btw! 👍
I agree and i'd love for him to stick around at Leverkusen for the foreseeable future. Thanks for the kind words bro!
XAbi Alonso is on top of his game his understanding of the game is so amazing
You nailed it nice highlight, it shows how intelligent xavi alonso is and he also stopped the dominating of Bayern munich in bundesliga.
From Ecuador all the best wishes to this amazing Manager and his epic team!
Great story telling sir!
Thank you bro! Much love from Aus 🇦🇺🤝
Xabi Revolution !
He's been fantastic.performer at all the club's he played for Real sociedad Teneriffe Liverpool Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. I can see him managing Liverpool Real and Bayern. Would like to see him take over from Klopp if he doesn't manage Real before.
Thanks for acknowledging that the turnaround didnt came with alonso, but exactly when Wirtz recovered, which played a huge role for Leverkusen moral
Great script, very professional presentation. You will go far!
Though not being a fan of Leverkusen (since it's a club, whenever in financial distress - unlike most of Bundesliga clubs have the possibility - always get's bailed out by their main financial donor (the Bayer*tm company), they are an absolute masterclass since Xabi is coach.
And though I do not really like them, I do still hope, that Xabi stays in this club for at least one or two more years, because he and his way and style of managing a team could have a positive impact on German football overall in the long term.
It's simply a joy nowadays to watch Bayer04 play… it's so fluid. The passing, the positional play, the ingame fluidity of just changing tactical formations… and the players just don't give a shit and are simply doing their job, since they know exactly, what is needed.
That is simply class!
He learnt from the best hands (trainers) in modern football coaching business and is destined to be a top class trainer based on his very short track record.Hope he takes over from Klopp when his contract expires in Liverpool. We need him. YNWA🙏
His work is translating into art on the field. His players really put his vision to work.
Fantastic Analysis on Xabi Alonso. You did great in this presentation
Very good video, well narrated and edited
great video man, thanks for doing this
Well thank you sir, will now be following leverkusen games
We need more managerial stories like this one please.
Liverpool need to get him on a pre-contract ASAP.
The master pass maker I love when he slow hit the ball for long pass
Dude your videos and the analysis are awesome don’t quit!!!
Thank you, it was beautiful to watch. ❤
Glad you enjoyed!
I'm a soccer loving woman 😁👍
What a wonderful video my guy! I was so immersed in it..with your story tell. you’re a G! 🤙🏾
Xabi will top quality one day and might even be a goat coach , above guardiola levels😳
He is making bayer leverkusen the next big team
Yes
He's leaving to a big club as soon as contract runs out. Probably Liverpool.
just hope he doesn't jump ship anytime soon!
@@DMac__ when will you make your next vid
@@ek6352 Not likely since Klopp renewed his contract last year until 2026.
This is beautiful to watch
I like what Xavi is doing and i hope they do well and the team looks good.
As a 🤍🏆 fan, can't wait to see Xabi in our corner, as the Lider he's destin to be. I wont be complaining if he bring, Frimpong and Boniface along, lol. First time in your channel, excelent video!!! #HalaMADRID
