Xabi Alonso Unveils Surprise Tactics Against Roma
In the highly anticipated Europa League semi-final clash between Bayer Leverkusen and Roma, Xabi Alonso has promised a tactical surprise that deviates from the team’s approach last season. The Spaniard, who guided Leverkusen to the Bundesliga title in a remarkable unbeaten campaign, has vowed to unveil a new style of play against the Giallorossi.
The most striking element of Alonso’s game plan is the decision to field Amine Adli as a ‘False 9’, leaving prolific strikers Victor Boniface and Patrik Schick on the bench.
