Xabi Alonso showed last season – as his Bayer Leverkusen team won the German league and cup double – that he’s a damn fine coach.
But let’s not forget that the Spaniard was a damn fine player back in the day too.
Whether it was for Real Sociedad, Liverpool, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich, Alonso was a joy to watch, with a range of passing that most midfielders could only dream of.
There are few better ways to spend 2:20 of your Friday than watching this compilation of his finest work.
Smooth as hell.
