Xabi Alonso is the latest to sit at our Masterclass board, here explaining to you his various roles and responsibilities at Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich - and how they changed under the managers he played for.
Alonso spent his formative years at Real Sociedad where he made his first-team debut at the age of 18 and went on to make more than 100 appearances for the club. He later joined Liverpool in 2004 and was part of their historic Champions League-winning night in Istanbul in 2005. The Spaniard then moved to Real Madrid, playing under both Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti.
In the latter stages of his career, the midfielder went to Germany and played under Pep Guardiola, and Ancelotti once more, at Bayern Munich. He won three successive Bundesliga titles before hanging up his boots in 2017.

Ozil us great, just to passive, theres a reason why real Madrid sold him and they win 4 champions league titles in 5 years

@stephencooper5155 5 жыл бұрын

Ozil is a luxury. No one has ever said he's shit. When you're 2-0 up at home he is one of the greatest players to have played the game. When you're 0-1 down away from home he is literally the last player you would ever want on your side. He has absolutely no defensive ability or workrate and 20 years ago that would have been fine because you'd play him behind a quick striker like Bergkamp/Henry type partnership and watch the goals. These days it's just not possible. There's a reason Madrid sold him.

Xabi Alonso - one of the most intelligent yet also hardworking footballers of our time, and will most likely be a top manager in the mold of Pep Guardiola if he ever manages a top team in the future. His defense-splitting passes were out of this world, yet he was also very solid defensively as a DM. A slightly rougher version of the great Andrea Pirlo if you ask me (and that is a very, very good thing).

Spain is truly dominating the world of football. Interesting how Arteta and Pep are two of the best in England, Xabi Alonso is leading the bundesliga after 7 games, Xavi won La liga in his first full season, and Emery keeps impressing with Villa. The country will likely wind up shaping football like the Dutch for the next 10 years (which isn’t crazy considering the lineage from Michels -> Cruyff -> Guardiola -> manager X, Y, Z). This is a huge simplification, but you get the point.
