Xabi Alonso gets backing from players after Manchester City defeat

Xabi Alonso feels supported by Real Madrid players despite recent defeats and criticism. Alonso praises team effort after 2-1 loss to Manchester City, says he can't ask for more.


“We are together, we need this unity to keep moving forward and achieving our objectives...”


Xabi Alonso is feeling the love from his Real Madrid team, despite their 2-1 loss to Manchester City in the Champions League. The Spanish coach said he's grateful for the support from his players, even though they're struggling with just two wins in eight games.




Alonso's future had been under scrutiny, with Spanish media reporting he could be axed if they lost to City. The home fans weren't happy either, whistling the team off after the defeat. However, players like Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham have come out in support of Alonso, saying the team is united behind him.


The pressure is on, though - Real Madrid need a win against Alaves on Sunday to get back on track. If they fail, Alonso's job could be on the line.


Xabi Alonso is feeling grateful towards his Real Madrid players despite their recent struggles. The team has only won twice in their last eight matches, but Alonso praised their attitude and effort, saying, “The players are giving until their last breath, so I have nothing to reproach, I am very grateful for their attitude.”




Alonso's positivity comes despite the team's disappointing 2-1 loss to Manchester City in the Champions League, which has raised questions about his future as manager. However, players like Rodrygo have shown their support for Alonso, with the Brazilian winger scoring and then running to hug his coach to show solidarity.


With a crucial La Liga match against Alaves on Sunday, Alonso will be hoping to get his team back on track and prove their critics wrong.


“I feel the support of the players, we're at (the training ground) every day together, preparing the games,” Alonso told reporters.


Xabi Alonso gave a glowing review of his team's performance, saying, “I can't ask for more from the players. We fell to a second consecutive defeat, but I feel the support of the team.”


“The players are giving until their last breath, so I have nothing to reproach, I am very grateful for their attitude, day-to-day, and we have to continue,” said Alonso.


“The results are not what we want, we have to be self-critical... but keep working and believing that this will pass, because everything passes, and I'm convinced we can do it.”


Xabi Alonso's players showed their solidarity after the game, publicly backing him amidst reports of internal conflicts. Rodrygo, who scored his first goal in 33 matches, even ran over to hug Alonso after putting Madrid ahead, saying, “It's a difficult moment for us and for him... we wanted to show people we're together with the coach.”


Other players, including Jude Bellingham and Thibaut Courtois, also defended Alonso, praising his leadership and expressing confidence in his ability to turn things around. “The players are giving until their last breath, so I have nothing to reproach, I am very grateful for their attitude,” Alonso said, appreciating his team's commitment.


“It's a difficult moment for us and for (Alonso) as well. Things aren't going well... we wanted to show people we're together with the coach,” Rodrygo told Movistar.


“We are together, we need this unity to keep moving forward and achieving our objectives.”


Real Madrid's defenders are showing their support for Xabi Alonso, with Raul Asencio saying the team is with him “100 percent.” This comes as Alonso faces scrutiny after a 2-1 loss to Manchester City, their second consecutive defeat.




Kylian Mbappe's absence didn't help, as he missed the game due to knee discomfort. He didn't train on Tuesday, and his absence was noticeable. Madrid will be hoping he'll be back soon, especially with a crucial La Liga match against Alaves on Sunday.


“It's too soon to say if he will be fit for Sunday (against Alaves in La Liga), but today obviously he was not ready,” said Alonso.


“If he was, he would have played. If he's not there we miss him.”
