On May 12, famous reporter Romano announced that Xavi Alonso will replace Ancelotti as the new head coach of Real Madrid. The two parties will sign a contract for three years.
From Real Madrid's perspective, Alonso will lead the team to quickly get rid of the decline and move towards glory, just like Zidane who replaced Ancelotti back then.
The Spanish Super League Cup final lost to Barcelona and missed the championship, lost to Barcelona and missed the championship in the Cup. They were eliminated by Arsenal in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and failed to defend their title. The just-concluded La Liga 3:4 lost to Barcelona 3:4 away. The defending of La Liga title is also a mirage. It is naturally inevitable that Ancelotti will be dismissed from get out of class one year early.
Real Madrid's current lineup is not bad, and its overall lineup value ranks second in the world after Manchester City. It has three superstars, Mbappe, Vinicius, and Bellingham. Rodrigo, Courtois, etc. are also top players. This season, the defense of injuries and staff are seriously reduced. Appropriate signing and adjustment of the lineup is enough to compete for the two-line competition in La Liga and Champions League. In the summer of 2013, Ancelotti replaced Mourinho as the new coach of Real Madrid, leading the team to the King's Cup in its first season and the Champions League champion who had been away for 12 years. In the 2014-15 season, Real Madrid suffered serious injuries and lost all four major players. At the end of the season, Ancelotti was fired by Florentino.
The successor Benitez was dismissed after coaching for half a year. Zidane became Real Madrid's new coach, and the effect was immediate. La Liga eventually ranked second with a slight gap of 1 point less than Barcelona, and the Champions League reached the finals and defeated Atletico Madrid again to win the championship. Next, Zidane not only became the first person to defend his title since the reform of the Champions League, but also continued to set a new record and completed the three consecutive Champions League championships.
Xavi Alonso became Zidane back then, which Mbappe was expecting. Only when Real Madrid wins the Champions League can he win the Golden Globe Award like Ronaldo back then.
But the Barcelona that Alonso faces is not the Barcelona team from Enrique to Valverde's coaching period. When Zidane coached Real Madrid for the first time, Barcelona's "Dream 3" had already come to an end and spent a lot of money, but reconstruction was on a downward trend.
The Barcelona team coached by Frick is more like the Barcelona team coaching in the early days of Guardiola, or the Barcelona team coaching in the peak period of Rijcard. On the offensive end, Yamal and Rafinia are equivalent to Ronaldo or Messi. Lewandowski is old and can introduce new players, or adjust its formation and tactics. During the period of Guardiola, he did not rely on the center. Midfielders Pedri and Frankie De Jong are no less than Xavi and Iniesta at their peak. The defense conceded too many goals, which is related to Flick's tactics. In fact, there are many good players. Conde, Barde, Martin and others are all top players.
Real Madrid is currently full of superstars, but how to combine and give full play to the role of stars is what Xavi Alonso needs to do. Perhaps like Mourinho back then, he had to reshape the temperament of a strong team for Real Madrid and quickly reverse his disadvantage against Barcelona in the domestic arena. As for the Champions League, winning the championship requires the right time, place and people. Without Zidane's "metaphysics", it would be difficult.
