That Nagelsmann lost the locker room seems to be an excuse being put into the world by Salihamidzic, to defend that ridiculous sacking. When you see the comments of the players and how shocked most of them were, it seems quite obvious that he didn't lose the locker room.

as a bayern fan its disgusting how naglsmann was disrespected by the board, considering the fact he was doing pretty well without a good striker upfront and was in the cup and ucl, only to sack him and bring tuchel for him to get us out of the ucl and cup in a space of 2 weeks and nearly cost us the league if dortmund didn't choke on the final match day it's sickening how the board has not treated our managers and players great over the past couple of years Lewandowski incident where they tried to get haaland when lewas contract was about to end, and when haaland rejected thats when they tried to extend his contract the hansi flick incident, a manager that won us every trophy in a season they couldn't give him a higher transfer budget increase to continue on competing the naglsemann situation ofc. sacked because "the treble being in danger" and bring in tuchel who in a space of 2 weeks to fully gets us out of both cup compeition the kroos situation arguably our best talent at the time and they got rid of him because they didn't see him good enough to earn the same wages as mario gotze only thing thats good that came out of this season is a wake up call for the board and the fans who were ignorant for this past season and not see how terrible our season was. and to any Leverkusen fan that might read this, congratulations. you honestly deserve that nothing but the upmost of respect for your fans,club and manager. 119 years of waiting has finally ended and i'm glad out of all the clubs that had the chance to dethrone us its leverkusen

@@homersimpson6585 Seems like they are arrogant new owners. When their own coach dosent get super good results. They sack him immediately just to bring in coach, that is even worse, than the previous coach, because they cant find better coach for the club. For me this seems like very childish behaviour, like the biggest germans clubs owners are bunch of children that will immediately sack coach, if he dosent bring the best results just to bring in even worse coach, than the previous coach was.

People normally also forget to mention that Xabi Alonso was a key part of the best Spanish National Team, and possibly the best National Team in history, winning Euro, World Cup and Euro again with absolute dominance. I see many resemblances in the way this Leverkusen plays to that Spain.
They said the same thing back in 2012 when Klopp won the double with Borussia. Bayern knows how to bounce back.

Xabi Alonso: The master of timing
To me the greatest achievement in club football this season. No matter who wins the other leagues or the Championsleague.
The last sentence describes life perfectly. Thank you for the amazing video, I am so glad Alonso is having this success. As a Chelsea fan I always feared him when we played Liverpool, he is very special.
Are those snail antennae?? 9:21 🤣🤣🤣 Excellent video, sounds like a great guy who took his team player mentality into coaching. A lot of bosses in many other professions that have nothing to do with sports could learn a lot from him. Thank you for the video! 🙏

Patience.... A virtue as rare in football as a quiet transfer window Nice one (Also, ironic given that we had both this season)
Excellent story, nicely told. A true role model and a rare one at that.
The ost's really set up a nice mood and your analysis was superb. Great Vid!
This video was so well edited!!!! One of the best yet...
Perfect timing
What a great video my friend.. that ending quote is brilliant!! We indeed have to slow things down!!
I rarely like videos on KZread, but this well planned and written video deserves more than a like
Less Goo! Perfect Timing
If xabi keeps the same team and recruitment wisely he could win the champions League or do the German domestic treble

Great video as always, but just a minor correction. Xabi Alonso's primary position was that of a defensive/holding midfielder and not central midfielder. Pep Guardiola and Rodri themselves admitted that this position was the toughest to master. It was Alonso's stint in this position which gave him the tactical knowledge and mastery of the game.
Wow. Awesome video. Very impressed with the quality here. Just like how I'm impressed with Xabi Alonso. Congrats to him and Bayer Leverkusen!!! 🏆

Love this video on Xabi Alonso. He will be a great manager.
Hey Athletic Interest im a big fan of your videos but I think there’s an easy way for you to reach a bigger audience and have even more success: your video titles. Often I find them slightly misleading and not directly related to the video. Like for this one I think it would’ve been a lot more effective and impactful to have “How Xabi Alonso put an end to Bayern’s domination” or “Why Xabi Alonso is the most wanted man in football” . In any case thanks for the videos, you’re doing a great job 🎉🎉
Fantastic analysis.......thanks for putting it together
Xabi Alonso shouldn't leave Bayer Leverkusen. He could be a legend in there and his run as its manager could effect all of the European football. He can be successful in some other clubs, but he would have little effect on European football on these clubs.
This was well put together 🤝🏿
clean visuals, love it!
Kane curse really helped Xabi to win the league.

Love seeing some of my favorite players becoming successful coaches. Zidane, Alonso, and Arteta. I hope Xavi can bounce back, not to mention Gerard and Lampard lol. I know the last two are a bit of a meme right now, but they are young and have time to get better if they are serious about it.

Like shown at 2:07, what I love about Xabi Alonso is that his managerial style comes from the many legendary managers he has played for. Rafael Benitez for Liverpool, Jose Mourinho for Real Madrid, Pep Guardiola for Bayern Munich, Carlo Ancelotti for both Real Madrid and. Bayern Munich, and Vicente del Bosque for Spain
Just saying that Alonso picks intelligent players and gives them freedom on the pitch doesn't cut it. It takes superior strategic insight to set up the framework within which the players can make their decisions.
The statement "They were on the longest winning streak in the history of European football" is false. They weren't even on the longest currently ongoing winning streak in European football. Ludogorets are currently on 12, with a 13th on the way.

Our problem in German football is simply we don't have clubs with good investors and personals. Thats why 50+1 is such a controversial topic.
Alonso's journey is a great example of how patience pays off, exemplifies the importance of patience.
Great video again! Would also love to see a video about sleep in sports. Its importance is underrated and could help lots of teams. Team Visma Lease a Bike switches mattresses every day in the Tour dr France so that Vingegaard always has the best sleep. Real Madrid partnered with Vispring, Man U with M-lily. Could make a niche but interesting video
Shaan’s speed and clarity of thought is ridiculously good… what a combo to have as a skill
He is on a path to become one of the greatest coaches. Hope he continues on that path ❤
Good stuff 👍👍👍
Make a video about Scaloni and Argentina before copa América starts
Great article
My favourite thing about Alonso is the grace he shows when things go wrong. After watching his team eliminated from Europe last season in the semi-final, the first thing he did was to embrace his opposite number, Mourinho.
This why managers like Alex Ferguson and Jose will be immortalized now Xabi join the list.
Great Video
