Bayer Leverkusen are unbeaten this season, and due to Bayern's inconsistent record, Dortmund's win rate in the Bundesliga is too low, and the pharmaceutical company is very hopeful of getting the Bundesliga salad this season. Alonso has become a favourite coach in European football, with former German star Bernd Schneider believing that Alonso's coaching achievements could surpass his playing career, with Bayer Leverkusen expected to win the league title. Schneider said that Alonso has "miracle attributes", knowing that the pharmaceutical company does not have a strong squad and that the club does not have a superstar. Alonso is able to tap into the team's brilliance, and he has a strong ability to manage the dressing room, he can turn an ordinary strong team into a real strong team, which is the "miracle attribute". Now that Alonso already has that attribute, you can expect Bayer Leverkusen's results this season.
Borussia Dortmund drew with Mainz, and while the Nerazzurri dominated the field, the club had been unable to win in the league for a long time, and Dortmund fans will have to worry about whether the home side will qualify for next season's Champions League. Schneider felt that Terzic was more of a problem, and while the young manager's tactical ability was okay, his strategy for dealing with difficulties was almost nilly - Terzic learned from Ten Hag's shortcomings, which are very similar to those of Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund. Ten Hag also has a number of useful players who are unable to manage the dressing room off the pitch and combine the characteristics of those players on the pitch, and Terzic seems to have learned that shortcoming. Because the level of the Nerazzurri's squad is actually no less than that of Bayern Munich.
Especially after Phil Kruger joined Dortmund, Terzic's squad is quite complete, and the backline also has Hummels, Jule and Schlote, even if Reuss is older at the midfield level, Brandt's creativity is very strong, why is this club in a predicament in the league?Schneider's analysis said that at the tactical level, Bellingham's departure did hit the team hard, resulting in a break in the midfield. Most of the goals conceded by the Yellow and Black were due to poor links in the central midfield, and Brandt's position itself was relatively forward, and it was unrealistic to expect him to defend. It just so happens that the problems and shortcomings of Ten Hag's system lie in this, which leads to the lack of tacit understanding in Manchester United's central and defensive midfield. At least tactically, Terzic learned a lot from the shortcomings of the Dutch coach.
Alonso is at the beginning of his coaching career, but a lot of his strategy feels a bit sophisticated. Coupled with the fact that the pharmaceutical company has also had good luck this season, many games have been evenly matched, and Bayer Leverkusen have had better luck. Why do pharmaceutical companies always play the tailwind?The situation in one or two games is good, probably the luck of the team. However, after half a season, Alonso has been able to make all the games thrilling, and this is the attribute of the manager, which is quite successful. First of all, Schneider admits that for the current Bayer Leverkusen squad, they also faced a number of strong opponents in the first half, and Alonso has never failed because he has a "miracle attribute", he is good at making players work miracles, as the club's draw with Borussia Dortmund was typified.
I remember that before that game, the Nerazzurri were already far behind in the league, and against the top team in the Bundesliga table, Terzic and his players were united to get a win and give Brother Long his first defeat. Schneider also admitted that Dortmund were indeed stronger and had a sharper attacking line, so their opponents took the lead early on. If he were to be replaced by another young coach at this time, it is estimated that he would immediately change the formation, and Alonso continued the previous established strategy, and the players seized the rare opportunity to equalize, at least to maintain a draw and unbeaten record, which also further lowered Dortmund's morale. Schneider also said "afterthought" that if Terzic can win that game, maybe the Nerazzurri will be on a winning streak and will not be so passive now.
It can be seen that Alonso has "miracle attributes". In Schneider's eyes, when Terzic returned to the managerial role last season, he did bring a lot of things to the table, and he is also a young coach who is good at learning Xi, but unfortunately he sometimes learns from the shortcomings of others. Some would argue that Ten Hag's tactical problems are minor and that his dressing room management is the big one. In fact, after Dortmund was unable to win for a long time, there were also voices against Terzic in the dressing room, and Brandt had something to say in the post-match interview, so Terzic's position was also in danger.
