Xabi Alonso has achieved great things at Bayer Leverkusen. I see him as the number one candidate for Real Madrid. However, he will be in a different atmosphere at Real Madrid than at Bayer Leverkusen. I think he can be successful again, but this time things won't be as easy as before. In his career as a footballer, he faced tough tests under pressure, but I don't think his career as a manager has faced this yet...
