Xabi Alonso: Liverpool's Next Manager? (Tactical Analysis)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2024
- Jürgen Klopp has announced that he'll be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season after 9 years at the Club. After the shock announcement, the question of 'What's next for Liverpool' has been asked, and so in this video I run you through Bayer Levekusen's Xabi Alonso, and why he's odds on favourite to replace Klopp and become LFC's next manager. The video dives into Alonso's young managerial career so far in Spain and Germany, his tactical philosophy; how he's orchestrated Levekusen in being one of the best teams in Europe and if Liverpool's crop of players match the profiles he current has in Germany.

Top Draw on the editing of this video mate, shocked at the lack of subscribers as the work alone deserves at least 5k subscribers!
Haha I appreciate that more than you could know mate. I'm just at the beginning of my journey, we'll get there one day!
Ive been sold on Xabi for a year now to take the job whenever Klopp left, whilst it's earlier than we'd have hoped I've total confidence he would come in and be perfect. Wirtz should be top of the list, whilst he's not a necessity as we are stacked in the forward line he's the only player I've seen in Europe who's anywhere near Judes overall talent in that age bracket. I wonder could we possibly sign Frimpong as well but play him as a left wing back with Trent doing the Grimaldo role on the other side? Great video mate, best one I've watched on Xabi.
Thankyou for the lovely words mate, I appreciate it so much!
Yeah you're right, I was assuming Klopp was leaving at the end of his contract but definitely not like this. I think Wirtz would be an unreal bit of business, But I don't think he'd be obtainable. If he was to come to Liverpool, Hincapie/Frimpong would be the perfect signings I think. If we signied Frimpong, I'd probably still play him on the right. TAA would thrive on that left hand side, it would allow him to have more time on the ball, and more space to operate, so it would be interesting to see what happens.
as a liverpool fans as well. if xabi came in trent would play midfield and bradley would play the right wing back! if we did bring in frimpong, him and bradley would dominate!
Unreal video bro the editing was nuts. Hopefully he brings Wirtz and Frimpong with him 🤞🤞
Thankyou mate! One can hope ay
I like the Luis Diaz lwb shout. Covers alot of ground for us anyway at LW & Robertson could be a good backup for when we come up against more stern opposition. Trent in the Grimaldo role on the right side is perfect. Salah off to Saudi in the summer so no need to fit him in. Szobo & Gakpo good for the inside 10's. Probably sign another one like Wirtz with the Salah Saudi Money. Macallister in the 6 role & defo need another 6 alongside him. LCB is an absolute must also.
Yeah I don’t think they’re half bad shouts at all. Exciting to see what happens
What about bradley for that rwb role...looks like a real talent coming from the academy...again was influential against brentford today
Definitely could be coached into a similar sort of role. He might not have that natural burst of acceleration and agility Frimpong has but he looks so well-rounded. Regardless of what coach comes in, I’m sure Bradley is going to mature into a fantastic squad player.
Great work bro, You know your stuff for sure
Thankyou brother, I try my best!
Really enjoyed the video keep up the great work - got yourself a new subscriber here!
Thanks man! Glad you liked it.
excellent video on xavi 💯💯let's just pray that we do get him as it would be a kick in the nuts if we dont get him!!!!!
Cheers lad! Yeah I think I'd cry if we don't get him!
Hey great video! I just wanted to ask how similar Frimpong and Nuno Mendes are? I think at the moment Nuno is pretty similar with his pace however he is more defensive and we haven’t really seen him push forward yet, but I was wondering if at his age maybe with some coaching he could get to a Frimpong level attack threat.
Thank you mate! I really like Nuno, he's got that raw pace and explosiveness Frimpong has with the ability to beat his man. Nuno is alot more defensively minded than Frimpong though, and although he can operate in those advanced zones it would take some coaching. I think for the price Nuno would cost, Liverpool would be better off trying to sign either Frimpong himself/ or a player that's more like-for-like. Thanks for commenting!
I prayed for Klopp to @Liverpool FC and now I'm praying for Xavi Alonso 🙏🔥 #YNWA🧡💖💪👏👏👏
YNWA!

I’d love to see Ben Doak as a back up in that RWB role I reckon he’ll thrive there
Ben Doak RWB is such a rogue shout, but i Like it!
I hope he turns TAA into the best Liverpool midfielder ever
That's the dream!
I think Conor Bradley can be a player like frimpong in the next few years, so I think that position is solved. TAA and all the forwards are in my opinion the question marks in the future if Xabi Alonso come in to liverpool and play a 3-4-2-1 because there are a lot of players (jones, macca, taa, diaz, robbo, jota, gakpo, nunez, salah, szoboslai, gravenberch, elliot, endo) to fit in those lb/lm, cm's and forward positions. I think there will be quite a few changes in the selection what makes me sad because I love each player of liverpool, but it also makes me excited for a new liverpool era with new players and playstyle.
Klopp's era had to unfortunately come to an end at some point so why not end on a positive. Like you said there's plenty of players to fill those positions not nailed on so it'll only improve us. I don't think Klopp will be the only massive name at liverpool to leave within the next year / 18 months, so there's going to be alot of emotion but alot of excitement too. YNWA
I disagree with you on how Trent and Salah would be used in Alonso's system if he adopts that system.Trent with Freedom is more dangerous than Frimpong just not as fast and with less defensive responsibility he would thrive.Its harder to defend for a FB in a back 4
Frimpong is good in that role because not only is he quick, he has the technical ability to beat his man down the wing or on the inside, whereas Trent can’t do either. I suggested Trent in Grimaldo’s role because he has more of that variation between drifting into the half space and dropping deeper.
Is Alonso available though? What does his contract say?
He only signed a contract extension in August to keep him there til the summer of 2026. Apparently he's got a release clause that Liverpool / Real Madrid and Bayern can trigger, so I'm assuming he's not out of reach.
It’s literally up to Alonso if he wants to leave or not - there’s no barrier if it’s for the above mentioned clubs
Alonso would adjust his system to the Liverpool team. It’s obviously not going to match Leverkusen like for like.
Yeah course, I understand that. Alonso to Liverpool is only a hypothetical at the moment anyway, so I thought it'd be more valuable to talk about what ne has to work with as apposed to speculating about potential adjustments.
Its Liverpool adjust to Xabis way of football
@@castropassion667 he’ll create a system that suits Liverpool’s strongest players. That’s what the greatest managers do. Liverpool have better players than leverkusen do, so that’ll be the deciding factor as to what system and style of football his Liverpool team will play.
We get carried away and deluded? Not me, Craig. That's why I'm not ecstatic about today with the injuries. You're getting carried away 😂😂

Good shouts, I really do like the idea of Lucho playing as that LWB. Quansah is really talented but I don't think i could trust him at LCB. The fact he isn't very experienced and right-footed makes me think he'd be better suited to occasionally rotate with Ibou.
