Real Madrid s new coach has clear goals: helping the three major stars recover their form

On Monday, Real Madrid will officially begin the era of Xavi Alonso. However, the first fire of the new coach after taking office may not be a practice of tactics, but a more difficult task: to carry out a psychological reconstruction for the three lost geniuses in the team.

Alonso's primary goal is to help Vinicius, Rodrigo and Raul Asensio regain their best football form and mental concentration.

Break the inner demon

Recently, Vinicius' off-field news has attracted much more attention than his performance on the field. Alonso hopes to convey a simple message: focus on football first, play well, everything else will come naturally. He will stress that players must completely separate their performance from contract negotiations and ask him to contribute more on the defensive end.

Regaining the spirit

The rumors about Rodrigo's departure were due to his decline in his form and his decline in his team's position. Now, his appearance pick is even behind Gonzalo Garcia. If he eventually stays in the team, Alonso's mission is to urge him to regain the speed, dribbling and creativity that he once relied on to become famous.

Rebuilding Confidence

The young defender is experiencing a crisis of trust after making some key mistakes in the Club World Cup. Alonso's mission is to talk to him, evaluate his mental state, and help him rebuild his confidence and eliminate doubts in his heart. Because what coaches need are players who believe in themselves completely.

Alonso plans to have a one-on-one separate meeting with the three players immediately after the team resumes training on Monday. Will the psychological massage of the Basque coach work? This will be the first key step in determining whether Real Madrid can get out of the shadow of last season and get back on track in the new season.
