Xabi Alonso gives each Real Madrid player a specific role

Real Madrid's new head coach Xabi Alonso has stressed that he is a supporter of a strict and systematic approach to forming the team's composition. The Spanish specialist said that as he prepares the "royal club" for the new season, he pays special attention to playing players in their natural positions.

In particular, the specialist has a clear position on the midfielder of the French national team Aurelien Tchoumeni. In his opinion, each player must clearly understand his role and carry out his actions on the field based on this.

Tchoumeni plays in the center, not in defense

Last season, Carlo Ancelotti played Tchoumeni in central defense due to the increasing number of injured defenders in the team. Although the French player fulfilled this task responsibly, he was criticized for his lack of movement in his unique position.

According to Marca, Xabi Alonso believes that each player in the team should play in his natural position. According to him, it is more important for each player to give maximum results in a specific function than universality.

Alonso's coaching approach

After returning to Real Madrid after a successful career at Bayer Leverkusen, Xabi Alonso remains true to his style as a coach. Discipline, positional accuracy and structural actions are among the main priorities in his team.

By returning Tchuameni to the center of midfield, Alonso aims to increase the effectiveness of the game and fully demonstrate the player's individual qualities. This is expected to create a more stable and effective structure in the center of Real Madrid.

Conclusion: clear tasks, limited universality

Under the leadership of Xabi Alonso, the Real Madrid team is becoming a balanced structure consisting not only of names, but also of roles and tasks. The presence of universal players is appreciated, but everyone is required to skillfully perform their position.

The decision taken against Tchuameny is a sign of a new era of order and discipline at Real Madrid. This means that in the new season, each player will have a specific role on the pitch - this is the main criterion for the coach.
