From a tactical point of view leverkusen are the most interesting team in world football right now
Close to arsenal you mean
@@ackimespencer3582 NO
@@ackimespencer3582you cant compare Leverkusen to the chokers
@@ackimespencer3582arsenal trash
@@ackimespencer3582Nah Arsenal are a joke. Leverkusen play proper football and Alonso pisses all over Arteta as a coach.
I watched most of the match and gotta say Leverkusen are currently an incredibly well drilled team. Every player knows what to do and their game just flows; it's beautiful to watch
They are exactly what i want my Man utd to looks like in terms of gameplay.
Leverkusen also targeted areas they knew they had better players. Wirtz can't be contained by Dier and Pavlovic.
Grimaldo/Stanisic/Frimpong better & more experienced at the wing back role than their opposing counterparts.
“On their day” man is this the first game you’ve watched of them? They don’t go unbeaten in all comps by only being “on their day…”
@user-mg2jf7wm7w not with tenhag, he's still waiting for Martinez 😅
@@user-mg2jf7wm7w Same goes for my chelsea 😢
You can see something from all of his former coaches and his father taught him too plus Alonso was a very intelligent player and a legend of the game and already a legend of Leverkusen and Bundesliga/DFB pokal german football as manager in short time. In this match you can see Guardiola and Mourinho influence on him. Great tactics from Alonso.
Alonso will win everything as manager for sure. Rich career as both player and manager one of few.
Bundesliga
DFB pokal
Europa League
They are going for treble
🎉🎉🎉
The influence of former managers is getting over inflated. Alonso is intelligent in his own right, he likely brings 80% of the tactics and game management using his own brain cells.
I always rated him highly, even above Xavi as a player.
@@josephodighibor2456I agree because Xavi mainly passes backwards and sideways. Alonso always passed forwards and was a better passer than Xavi. Alonso is better at shooting than Xavi as well
@@josephodighibor2456 always? can you at least know his name first lmao
I definitely think Leverkusen have this season in the bag. They have answered ever question thrown at them and still look like they have more reserve for any future problems that might come up. The most impressive thing about it is the way Alonso has evolved his game through the course of the season to meet the demands of the opponents
He is cooking and I can smell that!
Xabi Alonso is the next big thing in football
I mean, Is like saying bellingham Is the next big thing, pretty obvious
Liverpool need to get him asap. Makings of a legendary coach.
Bayern's weakness is that the midfield and wingers just aren't suitable as a cohesive unit. Sure the players individually are all good, but there's no real synergy between their skillsets that allows them to function as a team. Goretzka and Kimmich are both too attacking to act as true defensive screens, but all their fullback options are also attacking players, which means Bayern's defensive work is almost entirely reliant on two centre backs. To address that you need the whole team to press from the front as a unit, but the squad just doesn't seem to be very good at that either. Then all their wingers like Musiala, Sane, Coman, and Gnabry who are creative threats rather than goalscoring ones. So not only is the defence entirely reliant on two centre backs, but the attack is also completely reliant on one striker for goals. When you look at the Bayern side that won the Champions League, you could get away with some of those weaknesses because Lewandowski and Muller were both in their prime and sharing goal responsibilities, Thiago was underrated as a presser, and with Pavard at RB you had 3 defensive players covering transitions at all times instead of just 2.
You know your stuff 👏👍
Bayern Scored more goals than any other Team in Bundesliga this season
we love some ball knowledge 🤝
This argument falls down when you consider past Bayern managers like flick,jupp and pep who adapted the team based on players available. Tuchel is just stubborn ans considering he already alienated a section of players at the team, he already set himself up to fail, cause again I ask, what special players does Leverkusen have, I put it to you had tuchel been the Leverkusen manager and Alonso the Bayern manager the scoreline would be reversed, tuchel is finished at this point, remember he was at PSG and did nothing, plus fluked his way to a UCL at money ridden Chelsea.
Bayerns defense should be almost the same except for the RB. Under Flick, Kimmich and Goretzka were both playing and the defense still worked out. It wasn’t even looking as bad as it is now. I just don’t understand why Kimmich is moving around so much under Tuchel despite him taking more defensive responsibilities under Flick for example
With that 3-4-3 you can see Guardiola’s influence on Xabi Alonso. A possesion heavy side with an outstanding understanding of the game. Actually, Alonso said in an interview that he left Madrid because wanted to play with Pep Guardiola and learn from him.
Wow. Kinda funny how these career trajectories play out. I mean, Alonso clearly wouldn't have stated he wanted to play for Pep while he was at Barcelona.
@@adhynugroho9424 That’s pretty obvious. For example Fabregas wouldn’t have said that Mourinho is the best manager in the world while he was at Barcelona, but he said it while he was at Chelsea. But in this case, Xabi Alonso had a contract revenue offer after winning the UCL with Madrid but he still left.
5:23 😢@@diegocervantes2452
Guardiola? 😂 leverkusen just had like 30% possesion and less than 80% passing accuracy. Parking bus shit team
Leverkusen are not possession heavg
I'm a Bayern fan but to be honest I couldn't even be mad. Yes Bayern played very poorly, but seeing Leverkusen play with this much confidence and team cohesion is just really attractive to watch. I knew what I was getting into and I expected to see an interesting Leverkusen side. But they still blew my expectations. This is what makes football enjoyable to me. Absolutely deserved if they win the title this year if they keep playing like this. Nobody has come closer in deserving it the last decade.
…:) they played not good… but still on top, that‘s Bayern
If thats an 8.5 im wondering what is considered a 10 rating if there is any and if not what is the highest rating ever given in this channel
City vs Madrid, 10 to city 😊
Shout out to Xhaka and Andrich. Both fantastic yesterday.
I'm a simple lad: FMS notification comes up, I'll open it.
I love that you've analysed a game from the Bundesliga as well, reminds me of the days you would actively cover games from Serie A and La Liga as well😅 this is my favourite football tactial analysis channel on UA-cam, please keep up the good work. And, like I always say, this background music is just perfect🙌🏽
Very few times have I been this excited about a team the way I am now. Great video, keep up the great work! And if you ever want to grow your audience, here's a translator who will connect you with the Spanish-speaking community! 😊
tuchel disasterclass. never seen something like this
And now Kane is being scapegoated
He won UCL with Chelsea being defensive. One of the best UCL defensive records.
Bayern demands offensive possession ball. Tuchel was just the wrong pick.
Tuchel last season in Chelsea suffered similarly at the offensive end
@@mightymoeishTuchel's Bayern just pass the ball sideways and backwards with no intent, there is no directness or Verticality in our playing style.
Something that was different under Nagelsmann.
He's one of the most overrated coaches ever
You gotta love this team... its still a long way to go, 13 games... if Leverkusen keeps up the pressure and do their thing then they can surely do it... they just gotta keep it up... as a local and a fan for 15 years, it would mean the world to our tiny little spot on the map. And it would mean the work from the past 40 years would finally pay off.... i believe in this team from the bottom of my heart
they are called vizekusen ( vicekusen. likse ...second-kusen) for a reason..i aint a fan of both but i'd rather see vizekusen loose that title and winning the dish than another bayern as usual the last ages.
It is quite obvious that Alonso build a pretty good team.
But also that Bayern is in transition. What is the face of this team? What is the core or the axis? When you think about Bayern in the past there are always three or four players that were the structure of the team. Now they have a pretty new defense. they have not a consistent midfield, they have a few attacking players that perform, but that's not enough.
Bayern was always best when they had a core of players that started every game. Players that were like a structure of a building. Players that came to your mind when you heard the word: Bayern München.
But they lost that. Kimmich did not develop into the player they needed. Goretzka is not on a level to strike fear into the hearts of world class opponents. The same goes for the defenders. Players that could become world class, but are not quite there yet. They miss the strategic element, like Alonso was when he played for Bayern. They lack the pure football intelligence, like Lahm had. They lack the natural Bayern character (a combination of arrogance and work ethic), like Alaba had. Thomas Müller is the ultimate personification of what they need. But unfortunately for Bayern, he is not a defensive midfielder. This leads to a lack of stability.
They miss a certain level of quality in their squad. And Tuchel tries to build around this, but it is impossible. You get away against weaker opponents, but not against such a talented and well prepared team like Leverkusen.
I think that Leverkusen's biggest advantage is Alonso has picked players with high intelligence, and coached them in such a way that they solve tactical issues on the pitch as a match progresses.
All of the changes Leverkusen made have a fairly simple tactical change to remain effective defensively, its just very hard to make those changes quickly on the pitch, and stay cohesive. Leverkusen ask you difficult, changing tactical problems. If you don't adjust well Leverkusen control the ball. Then if you continue to go man to man, its very difficult to stop a dropping nine as midfielders have time to pass into the big gap at the back if the centre backs stays man to man.
Maybe Tuchel should have gone low block and used a dropping Kane to launch counters? Bayern don't like to play small team tactics though.
Alonso is one hell of a coach would love to see him at Anfield
Me too🙏🙏🙏
Looks like German football has another prodigy at their hands in Wirtz. I'm exited to see how his career will unfold.
Musiala and Wirtz, both together sounds like a cheat code.
Another prodigy? Let him come to the prem then we'll see. In Germany, even Ballack was a baller. His true footballing ability got tested in the prem where he was just average. And not to even comment on Werner.. 😂😂
@@juned2001considering he helped Chelsea reach their first ever champions league final and has the lowest loss record of any player with over 100 games, Ballack couldn’t have been too bad 😂
@@juned2001Yeah with 1 WC win in your own country in 1966 of course you can boast!
@@kt9493😂😂😂😂😂
Alonso 10 points. How could you have done that better? Perfect matchplan.
Flexibly and bravely changing players and tactics is impressive
I agree with most if this video but the last point: Leverkuse did barely adept this game but basically played their go-to system with 2 roles slightly changed in stanisic and adli. The one team that tried to adept and failed miserably was Bayern by trying to shadow Leverkusens formation
Boom was waiting for this
Great Analysis. In my oplnion, Alonso is the only coach who can follow Jürgen but it's a kamikaze Job. Don't forget, in Germany coaches plus stuff and Management are not one person and stepping in Jürgens footprints is almost impossible. Cheers from Germany and please excuse my crappy english 🙈
Props for the pronunciation of the names 👌
Leverkusen positionings is world class and labour rate is immensly high. As you can see, this doesnt have anything to do with talent but hard work. From this they developed their mind set to play the ball in very narrow windows. The result is fun to watch. Bayern werent too bad but the composure of Leverkusen had an impact on Bayern too.
Its to early to say anything about xabi on what he's targeting to achieve within the capability of his current team but it is nice to see him giving such creativity gameplay 😉
As Real Madrid fan, I have been following Xabi tactics and from what I saw his kind of football fits perfectly for Liverpool.
I would like to see him as Real Madrid Manager in the future though. His football and match to match preparation is second to none, Brilliant.
Bayern got obliterated bro didn’t threaten Leverkusen at all
I’m a Lfc fan and I must say this team is one of the best teams in the world
🤣 world? don't push it. Beat City first then you can make that claim.
Smooth brain comment 🫣
City needs to focus on beating their biggest rival: the 115 charges. If they can't nobody will respect their body of work, because it's build on fraud.
@lowercentenary stop being salty and read. The only ones they could strip them of are pre-2017. That's before Pep and his dominance. No one will strip them of these achievements for the past 7 years. And they've deserved every single one of them.
@@lindilebangose7667 All the charges are during Pep's reign. Before Pep, they weren't even spending that much.. 😂
PossessionBall only works if you can control the counter. Even a master like Pep used to fail with it (UCL). Reminder that Tuchel won the UCL by playing defensively.
Football is so funny with werner he win cl how god 😂😂
Correct. They achieved that.
What a pity that this well oiled machine will only last one season, as Xabi Alonso would move to Liverpool and one or more Leverkusen's players will be raided. I wish the team can achieve success more than a season.
lovvvv ur chanel brooo ⛳️ #reliable
Good video.
Tuchel had some interesting tactical aspects but it just didn’t work out because of the lack of creativity by the players and great tactics from Leverkusen.
I was so waiting for this analysis. Great video. I expect Bayern and Leverkusen to keep winning but I feel the Bavarians really felt the moral blow. They were humbled. The opposite goes foe Leverkusen. They are mentally stronger. Who should stop them now?? I think this title (if not all 3) are going to Leverkusen. What do you think? 😮😮😮
Hi, welcome to FOOTBALL MADE SIMPLE
hi, FMS, what software or app you are using to analysis the tactical, many thanks
he stated he uses premier pro but idk what he uses for these visuals
Amazing
the most important thing i saw from xabi is he didn’t change his way for the opposition
And equally so, Tuchel changed formation to adapt knowing full well that Bayern always fails in a back 3.
Except he did?
Every coach always adapts to the opposition to some degree
@@miguelporras8366 i’m speaking to the core principles of course he made adjustments but i’ve seen coaches throw away their own game plan for bigger opposition xabi didn’t do that
@@rageowens of course he did. Grimaldo moving to the center is an obvious tactical change.
He had different men available and the rival has different weaknesses than other teams. So, it is perfectly natural to make some changes.
Defending with 6 also broke Bayern's attack, that is not exactly Alonso's usual defensive setup
Master class
Aaaannd they made it! Amazing...
The way they make two passes and all of a sudden there is lots of Space was incredible to watch.
From a tactical standpoint, Tottenham really know how to turn winners into losers.
Way before this game, Tuchel's Bayern have been so ponderous!
Kane never picked out, Sané expected to do some magic, and the runners around them expected to mine errors out of the defenders.
It isn't a philosophy of domination but attrition through a thousand tiny yawn-inducing cuts (which is generally how they've been winning games)
Aweful football to watch.
Wirtz imo is far better than Musiala from what i have seen
Musiala is used wrong atm. He must play deeper to unfold his movement but he plays as a winger/10. Wirtz plays his best position
@@G0TUGAI Agree, deep midfield Musiala is an absolute joy to watch. That's where his intelligence shines the most. He has such a great feel for the gamestate and makes key decisions so fast. On the wings he's mostly wasted and as a 10 I think the main problem is that yes he's a good dribbler, put he is overestimating his chances to much there and often just loses the ball.
Mate, you re fuckin awesome - keep on Pushing, much appreciated ;-)
Tbh they deserved this result based on how they treated nagelsman 😂
The folks that canned Nags are long gone. Bayern now are suffering the aftermath of a trigger-happy Brazzo.
Funny Nagelmann was watching 😂
Not brazzo, it was oli kahn
@@retiredrebel I'd say the world cup seems to have broken multiple things inside of most current bayern players.
Couldn't agree more😂😂😂
Broh, the Pep Guardiola's Nightmare is right on the corner ...
As an Arsenal fan so happy to see Xhaka do well... This was some of the best football I saw for a neutral... way better than EPL... Leverkusen are fire
The good old "You can take him out of Tottenham but you can't take Tottenham out of him"
Jokes aside I feel bad for Kane.
3:01 giving the right guys positional Freedom... 2 10s...😮
Pls also do focus on La liga and Serie A bro
Atleast last night's Madrid vs Girona needs some attention
Please may I ask what software you use to do this analysis?
Almost perfect analysis, thank you. But please use different heatmaps. On the Grimaldo heatmap you cant see anything. 😅
I don't think you understand...
The Blue map showed how cold Grimaldo was all over the pitch! 😉
Thanks
We need a vid for Madrid vs Girona ASAP
Instant Subscribe, efficient presentation of evidence. I'd say go be a pundit if it wouldn't then be more about what suit your wearing.
I wonder who xabi brings to LFC with him from this leverkusen team.....also great seeing leverkusen being back on the level they once were
Grimaldo is the most interesting player to take along.
Don't be so arrogant, if he wins a lot with Leverkusen he might even stay. He's young and has plenty of time to go to Liverpool or Real
In every sport, there's always a new player or coach/manager that takes on the mantle of the next best thing to be produced. And it's safe to say that Xabi Alonso is indeed next up...
Instead of starting with 5 defenders, Tuchel could start with a 4-3-3 formation. Then you always had 1 extra midfielder to catch Grimaldo, then Mazraoui did not have to move out of position + you could put pressure on the 3 defenders of Leverkusen with 3 attackers man to man. But it is still brilliant what Xabi Alonso is doing with his team, really enjoyable
It will be interesting to watch this team in the Europa League
Can you tell me software name ??
Excellent video. Thanks for working to get this posted so quickly. "Everyone" is saying that Alonso is going to go LIverpool, let's assume that is true. Would he play this style of total football there? Would those players fit such a system? It seems to me, that staying in Leverkusen might be a better place from which to change world football. He can be the best manager in that team's history and build a dynasty. At Liverpool, he will always be #3 at best historically. On the other hand, Liverpool and the EPL have the money to implement any plan.
The peak of Alonso's career as a footballer was Real Madrid. I guess that the peak of his coaching career will also be the bench of Real Madrid

Ideal dream scenario would be he'd stay one more year and winning the 🏆 CL in 2024-2025 :)
When Dier is your CB. Good luck.
Dier was awesome in last week's victory!
The problems were his disastrous teammates Upa and Kim.
Best CB De Ligt was benched by f***** Tuchel.
@@thomasbayer2832 delusional Bayern fan. Both Upa and Kim are worlds better than De Ligt and played well. They were not the problem
@@thomasbayer2832 Upa and Kim together are way better than De Ligt. The real problem is they played 3 CBs with Dier. That didn't work out.
@@iRaps1what? No they were literally just not good at all this game. Made horrible decisions constantly.
@@RoganClipVaultYT perception can differ greatly. The problem was created up front bc Bayern simply don't have any players that link up creatively together in possession. Boey - Musiala was just as big of a loss as Maz - Sané. Goretzka just disappears half the game and Pavlovich is young and can't be tasked with being the creative motor of an uncreative attack. Musiala is the only player who's good on the ball and he's always left alone and struggles with decision making and timely passes as well. The roster just isn't structured well at all, and the CBs do all of the defensive heavy lifting even though the midfield isn't good offensively, either.
Just an increasingly MID group of players
Great tactical performance from Bayer with and without the ball . Think they will win the league now
Eric Dier…From being awful Tottenham for the last two years right into starting for Bayern Munich…
Please do an analysis of Aston villa vs Chelsea
Is anyone gonna talk about Eric Dier stating over De Ligt? 😂
I don't think you described the back three correctly the way Bayern tried to do it. The one who was constantly manmarking was Upa, who tracked Wirtz across most of Bayern's half.
Can you do an analysis on the AFCON FINAL br9
Can we get some AFCON videos?
Tactics are poor, you hardly see wat they are trying to do
@@haamulubechooka6908yes, it’s all about individual skill so players can get the hell out of dodge & land a Euro contract
True, it sucks to watch looking for any tactical approach
Too good
Girona, Fluminense, Leverkusen and Real Madrid are wonderful teams to watch!
I would like X. Alonso to come to Madrid in the near future .. with this team..
Am I exaggerating if I say this Leverkusen side is the best football team seen over the last ten years in Europe? Along the 2019-20 Liverpool side until Covid, I'd say. Results wise and for the beauty of their brand of football. I don't want to jinx it for them, I really hope they win the treble and make it up for 2002
PS yes I know Real Madrid won three CLs in a row and had Ronaldo, Modric and Benzema on their team, but they didn't offer any kind of excitement to the viewer, in my opinion
7:23 it will be a test of the Bundesliga now, how well they can drag down giants.
Shocking from Bayern
Alonso and Leverkusen are doing extremely well now, But its still too early to list Alonso with some of the world best manager.
Claudio Ranieri won the Epl with a very unfancy Leicester City F.C.
But they just faded after that, a 1 season wonder,
I am not saying Alonso is another Claudio Ranieri, but he still got alot of work to do.
Yeah Leverkusen go nuts this season. Xabi obviously is a great coach. I hope he stays there for some more years and builds a legacy before he joins a big club like Liverpool. I wonder how good they will do in the champions league next season. :)
Leverkusen plays an almost perfect season so far. They still havn't lost a match in any competition. That alone is insane. Then you look at HOW they play and you one can not imagine how they could not win the league. they might even get the triple.
what killed bayern was the lack of tactical creativity. this is what gave leverkusen the edge, they were much more free to move when they had the ball, as we saw with adli, wirtz and grimaldo, while bayern were very disciplined which made them very slow in possesion and also caused them to lose possesion in their half fairly often. but im very excited to see xabis future, whether he stays or not.
I really want to see arsenal vs leverkusen…..may be in a friendly this summer
Tuchel doesn’t fit Bayern’s DNA. He’s a defensive coach similar to Simione’s. Bayern are all about attacking football which Tuchel lacks unfortunately. On the other hand, Bayer Leverkusen are brilliant with how they play. What a joy to watch.
From what i have seen Wirtz is by far the best German footballer and should lead the national team for the next 10 years.
Tuchel isn't a league manager
For now several seasons Bayern seems to have serious issues with their midfield being unable to establish a reliable press or control which we can see from Kimmichs history of losing the ball if pressured or vulnerability to counterattacks.
As FMS (not only in this video) pointed out, playing with two midfielders against 3-4 opposing ones, is a recipe for disaster. It‘s time for Bayern, with or without Tuchel, to abandon the boneheaded back 4 plus double pivot system dating back to Heynckes.
Can you do Roma-Inter last night game?
Chelsea aren’t the same without Tuchel and Tuchel isn’t the same without Chelsea. Match made in heaven bring him home UP THE CHELS
For that, the Gringo would have to swallow his pride
@@ScaroMK which he did after this match
@@KrisKTBFFH I'm telling about Boehly
@@ScaroMK well tbh I think it’s more eghbali than boehly. Chelsea have brought back Jose and in my opinion roman has a bigger ego than boehly and co 👍🏼👍🏼
Anybody can be great as long as u willing to work for it!!
Alonso from no where in the coaching world is becoming a hot cake on the market
Maestro
Didn't Adli play off the right side? interesting video.
WHAT A GAME..ALONSO WON IT ALL.. LEVERKUSEN CAN WIN IT
don‘t underestimate how Leverkusen didn’t press DIer that much and made do the build up…
Tener un entrenador español, ¡el deseo de todo equipo!
Bundesliga and la liga are way more difficult than people perceive it to be
What a good player Dier is! As long as you play Dier, you will realize what the hell is!
Pep effect and influence on coaches
Leverkusen did a great job and congratulations.
We had a stupid Dier finger and we played very poorly.
Very good but it won't work in laliga when 8 players are in defence and only 2 pressing
They are taking the title
The whole Alonso Thing reminds me of 90s Ajax.
