Real Madrid s new coach swung his first sword at him! Alonso gave up his famous formation, whoever is happy or worried under the 433 formation

2:59am, 4 June 2025【Football】

Last week, Real Madrid held a media meeting for new coach Xavi Alonso under the gaze of the crowd. The arrival of the highly anticipated young Spanish coach has been actively welcomed by the fan base. However, in his opening speech, he revealed little about his team's playing style.

Alonso avoided clear statements about the team's specific play or personnel composition, and Rodrigo's future seemed undecided at that time (but the Brazilian player has now told Real Madrid that he is eager to stay). But the former Leverkusen coach did mention that he plans to withdraw Bellingham's position further to midfield and hopes his team will be the party that takes the initiative in the game.

Alonso finalized Real Madrid formation

According to the "Marca", Alonso has decided to temporarily shelve the 3-5-2 formation he preferred during the Leverkusen period and will give priority to building a 4-3-3 system. Previous reports pointed out that Alonso did not consider radical changes before the club's World Cup and planned to re-evaluate after the game. The Madrid media explained that the coaching team believes that the current lineup is not suitable for playing in the three-center-back system, but 4-3-3 will not be the only formation to consider.

will soon communicate with Vinicius

After conducting a detailed analysis of Real Madrid's recent games, one of the issues that concern Alonso the most is the defensive attitude of some players. He urgently stressed that the whole team needs to participate in the defense. If the 4-3-3 formation is finally adopted, Vinicius is likely to serve as the left winger, and Alonso will communicate with the Brazilian player on this and clarify this requirement to him. Who will benefit from the new system?

Theoretically, this system may have the greatest benefit to Rodrigo. Both he and Brahim Dias are more natural in the 4-3-3 formation than in the 3-5-2 formation. At least, their path to getting the starting position will be clearer. However, for players like Carvajal, Rudiger, Militon and Raul Asensio, the news may be less inspiring. With new players joining their position, they will face more intense competition when the starting lineup has not increased.
