Newly-appointed Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso has been described as 'fantastic coach' by his peers
Transcript
00:00I can see him on the same level as Mourinho, as Pep Guardiola, as Ancelotti because he has everything to
00:06be a top manager.
00:14He becomes one of the best managers in the world. He's doing a fantastic season, not losing a single game,
00:21so the future is bright.
00:22I think it's been just crazy what we have done. Just making history at the club for the trophies, not
00:29only the Bundesliga, but keeping for the one-time ambitian run is something really, really special.
00:36He's done a great job at Everkusen, so I saw that there were a series of things that were good
00:43to go to Madrid and try to replicate all that. That's what I see a lot of potential.
00:49The more difficult ones for the pressure, for the environment. Last season, I've done last season, I've been sacked six
00:57months before the end of the season.
00:59It's a difficult place, but he knows it. Of course he's capable to do it. It would require that position
01:06to be a manager for Madrid.
01:07He's a fantastic coach. This is football. We have to accept these things and I wish him all the best.
01:15I think he will get a new one and a big project for him and also his team.
01:24But he's a fantastic coach and also has a great future.
01:28I wish Xavi all the very best because he's a top person and an incredible coach and I'm sure that
01:34whatever he decides to do in the future, again, will be top.
01:38In my point of view, Xavi will be soon one of the managers of a top club in Europe, England
01:45or Wales and he will be a champion again.
01:49And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure in a few years, let's talk in 10 years or 15 years, that
01:57he will be the manager of Real Madrid.
