Xabi Alonso wants to go to action. Stop clips and tablets to put in the green, finally, its bet. Have those who leave, like Modric, “which is History of Real Madrid”, and with the new ones, maintaining the heritage built by Ancelotti, but passing the page to inaugurate a new era that takes the white club to the final of July 13. Or at least, that the process until that day is positive, marking the first red lines and obtaining the successes that allow the work in motion.
“It is essential that there is an offensive and defensive balance”
“We have been, little by little, we have recovered people, such as European internationals, Latin Americans … We now have better distances. We will be better positioned. We want to recognize ourselves. Then we will have possession, we will seek recoveries and a shorter team,” he analyzed tactically Xabi Alonso, who will have several unknowns to reveal.
“Bellingham has the ability to cover a lot of field and has to start from the correct position. He has a midfielder's soul, but also a great quality of being able to arrive. It is very dynamic, it covers a lot of field. You have to find it in the right positions“He explained about one of the players that will be essential for the good progress of the Xabi Alonso project.
The Basque needs to implement the theory of commitment. “It is essential that there is an offensive and defensive balance, that there is commitment and are involved in all phases. This will facilitate much. We have had little time, but we are going to be as effective as possible. The last day of the tournament we will be better equipment than we have started. We will see what works and not. That is why the game point is before the Hilal,” said the white coach, who wants to renew the faith of the club.
The medical part of Real Madrid
“I have felt that the players are wanting and enthusiasm. The reception to the changes has been good. Light? You have to show it in the field. Now the 'rock n roll' begins. You have to see it,” explained Xabi Alonso, who reviewed the medical part. Mbappé “was something better, but well enough, but it was better that he did not go out. We are going to wait until the last moment. Everyone is wanting, but in different phases. Rüdiger has made a brutal effort, it is the one that will first arrive. I do not know if in call.” About Camavinga, “it is progressing better than we think,” Carvajal and Alaba will need a little more time.
“I am not worried about heat. We have to know how to adapt,” said Real Madrid coach. “The day to day is very good. It is about working. Ancelotti's work was very respectful. It was fantastic, but now we started a new stage and we will work it in our way. There is a very good pass,” he wanted to make transition between the two stages.
“I want Rodrygo to enjoy”
From the meeting with Al Hilal, the pending conversations will begin, such as the one with Rodrygo, “To which I see you wanting to be in the field and enjoy, with all the good that you can give us. We will have to put it into practice”. About Ceballos, which left his renewal in the air, said that there will be “a great conversation, but I see that he likes football,” he said about one of the pending threads.
“Mastantuono has played well, I have seen River well,” he explained about another of the new faces that Xabi Alonso will have, who grew up with the passing of the questions. “Any competition that Real Madrid disputes has to fight it. We don't think about the final, everything will come. We want to take many steps before. We want to know how to compete and play. Do not get frustrated“He reasoned the day before the start of a new film at Real Madrid.
