Their defeat against PSG has left many doubting Xabi Alonso's abilities, and they're also unaware that PSG themselves suffered a similar fate at the hands of Chelsea. For me, this isn't a worrying thing because in football, anything can happen beyond expectations, and while it's true that Xabi Alonso hasn't fully adapted to make Real Madrid stronger than before it's not surprising.

Ancelotti has been a coach for so long and has successfully delivered titles to the teams he's managed. Comparing Xabi Alonso to him is unfair, as Xabi Alonso is just starting to build his coaching career. It will take time for him to make Real Madrid stronger and I don't think it will be achieved in a short time as many people wish.
i agree with you, xabi alonso still has a chance even though he lost to psg by a big goal difference. no manager who has only one chance to prove himself can stay in a big team for a long time. think of it like a long term investment, when you invest in something you are sure that it will meet your expectations in general even if the price sometimes drops, so you keep waiting.

the same goes for names like this, xabi alonso is unlikely to leave real madrid without achieving anything, because he has proven his potential with what he has done.

People who doubt Xabi Alonso just because he lost to PSG don't understand the process of football. It usually comes from an instant gratification mindset. So basically, he just wants a team like Real Madrid to be unbeaten, score lots of goals and perform perfectly in every game. How ridiculous is it to doubt Xabi and recommend which coach again?
