Xabi Alonso makes first major call on Real Madrid tenure
Real Madrid presented new manager Xabi Alonso to the media last week to plenty of fanfare, with the Basque manager's much-awaited arrival met positively by the fanbase. During his opening statements, he give little away about how his team would be setting up. Alonso stayed clear of defintitive statements on how his side would play, or what players would be there to play it, with the future of Rodrygo Goes thought to be up in the air – the Brazilian has since informed Los Blancos that he is keen to stay. The ex-Bayer Leverkusen man did note that he would be moving Jude Bellingham further back in midfield though, and that he wanted his side to be protagonists. Xabi Alonso makes Real Madrid formation decision According to Marca, Alonso has decided to park his preferred 3-5-2 formation at Leverkusen for the time being, and will work towards a 4-3-3 system for the time being. Previous reports had noted that Alonso was not thinking about making a radical change before the Club World Cup, and would reassess afterwards, and the Madrid-based daily explain that the coaching staff feel the current squad his not set up to play three at the back, although the 4-3-3 will not be the only system in mind. Image via Marca Vinicius Junior conversation incoming One of the things that has worried Alonso most after a detailed analysis of Los Blancos' recent games is the defensive attitude of some of his players, and Alonso is keen to emphasize that defending is required from the whole team. If that 4-3-3 does come into place, Vinicius Junior will likely be on the left wing, and he will hold a conversation with the Brazilian to make that clear to him. A system that benefits…? In theory, this system would benefit Rodrygo Goes more than anyone, who together with Brahim Diaz has a more natural position in a 4-3-3 than a 3-5-2. At the very least, they would have a clearer path to a starting spot. It is news that may be less encouraging for the likes of Dai Carvajal, Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao and Raul Asencio, who with new signings arriving in their positions, face increased competition without increased spaces in the starting XI.

BVB star is Mr L1+🔼: The top Champions League players on paper
The 2024/25 Champions League season is history. Paris Saint-Germain has claimed the trophy for the first time. But who were the stats leaders of the entire season? Here you can see the kings of their craft at a glance. The Spider with the Most Saves Real Madrid may have been knocked out by Arsenal in the quarter-finals, but until then, Thibaut Courtois had already made 52 saves. One more than CL finalist Yann Sommer collected in three additional games. Clearances in the Penalty Area Marquinhos has experienced everything in his twelve years at PSG. He has seen many stars come and go. This season, the Brazilian was on a mission. Whenever there was danger in his own penalty area, he was ready with the fire extinguisher. BVB Star is Mr. L1+Triangle Nico Schlotterbeck delivered the most successful long passes. The BVB defender hits those long balls just as precisely on the field as on the console. Flying Dutchman, the Lord of the Air Luuk de Jong, with his aerial presence, kept PSV Eindhoven's plays alive last season. At 34, still soaring high. Duel Monster on Two Legs Nuno Mendes completely outplayed one or two superstars in the Champions League. Mo Salah or Bukayo Saka might still have nightmares about the duel monster from Portugal. Referee, hey! Cherif Ndiaye exited the CL group stage with Red Star Belgrade without a sound. However, he takes home the title for the most fouls won. The Gunners of the Champions League Following the motto "More is more," Kylian Mbappé, in his first season at Real Madrid, decided to shoot from all angles. He shot his way to the top of the players with the most attempts on goal. Master of the Through Ball The through pass is the king's discipline, and surprisingly, Atlético's veteran Rodrigo de Paul finished as the best in class. Tackling Machine from PSG At just 20 years old, João Neves played a significant role in PSG's title win. His tackling skills haven't been seen statistically since the 2007/08 season. Of course, the Parisian vacuum cleaner also had a few more games to achieve this. Unstoppable in One-on-One If your teammates leave you alone against Lamine Yamal on the wing, as a defender, you might as well give up. Barça's mega-talent sought and successfully completed the most one-on-one situations by a large margin. Have the Ball, Pass the Ball! Another Portuguese player topped this category. Vitinha played 1,294 successful passes in the past season. Joshua Kimmich landed in a respectable second place with three fewer games. That Xavi, a former protégé of Pep Guardiola, still holds the best record in this category despite fewer games (1,299 passes in 2012/13) speaks volumes. Tiki-taka. Most Passes into the Final Third For a change, no PSG player at the top. Bayern's Joshua Kimmich delivered the most balls into the final third to his teammates. However, this might not console him for missing the final in his own backyard. What Does Ball Thief Mean in Spanish? Fede Valverde was the most successful ball thief in the CL season 24/25. Real's bundle of energy stole the ball a total of 27 times. Head Waiters Among Themselves Barcelona's Raphinha created the most big chances. Closely followed by Joshua Kimmich. FC Bayern was generally well represented with Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala in third and fourth places. With better chance conversion, the final at home 2.0 would have been possible. Assist Hunter At FC Barcelona, Raphinha's groundwork was utilized a bit better. He not only provided the most assists. Top Scorers of the Champions League Serhou Guirassy was Dortmund's insurance policy in the Champions League. The BVB striker shares the title of top scorer with... of course, Raphinha. Were there any surprising stat leaders for you here? Feel free to write it in the comments! Advertisement This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
