Alonso Says He Must ‘Know How To Live With’ Criticism At Real Madrid

Xabi Alonso, the coach of Real Madrid, said on Tuesday that he must be aware of the media’s rumors about his future while in charge.

Los Blancos have lost all three of their previous three games, with reports that some players are unsatisfied with Alonso’s management.

Alonso, who played for Real Madrid between 2009 and 2014, said he was inspired by some of his former coaches, including Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti.

Alonso said in a press conference ahead of his team’s Champions League clash against Olympiacos on Wednesday that it is “demanding.” “I’m not the first coach to have to deal with these kinds of situations,” he added.

“I think a lot about how Carlo or Mou handled it as coaches under whom I was playing.” Because these are not recent events, (Manuel) Pellegrini did this in his day.

We are not happy with the last few games, but you have to know how to live with it and have the drive and self-criticism required as well.

Madrid finished seventh in the league phase table the previous week, but Liverpool did it at Anfield in their final European game.

They won Alonso’s first Clasico in La Liga against Barcelona in October, but they lost to Rayo Vallecano and Elche in their previous two matches.

Despite their recent form, Madrid is just one point ahead of Barcelona, the champions of last season.

Alonso took over from Ancelotti in the summer, despite the Basque coach’ apparent lack of team unity.

Vinicius Junior expressed his frustration with Alonso’s choice of him over Barcelona, while Fede Valverde objected to the coach’s frequent use of him at right-back.

Alonso said, “I have had to live with a lot of great players and big personalities who are demanding, knowledgeable, and always seek the best.”

They react in these ways, but they are normal, which makes them successful.
