XABI ALONSO – THE ONE PLAYER LIVERPOOL ARE UNABLE TO FIND A REPLACEMENT FOR

_________________________________________\

Liverpool won the UEFA Champions League trophy in 2005, FA cup in 2006 and then the 
Community Shield. They reached the finals of the Champions League in 2007 and finished second 
in the Premier League in 2008-09. Since then it has been  a downward fall for the club. 
They finished seventh in the 2009-10  season  and sixth in the following season. This was intertwined 
with the sacking of two mangers.  They are currently lying eighth in the table with four games to 
go. The fall began since the departure of one player in 2009. Most of you must have correctly 
guessed whom I am talking about. He currently plays for Real Madrid FC . I am talking of none 
other than Xabi Alonso.

Xabi Alonso was signed by Rafael Benitez in 2004 from Real Sociedad for 10.4 million pounds. He 
had a very successful first season with Liverpool, winning the Champions League and scoring in 
the final against Milan. He was a very important and integral part of Rafael Benitez’s  
management style and tactics. He soon established himself as one of the best midfielders in 
the League. He was not only known for his fantastic passing abilities but also for his tackling. He 
was also known for one more rare ability – scoring from his own half. He scored from 65 yards 
against Luton Town in the FA cup third round tie in 2006 and a 70 yarder against Newcastle in the 
League. BBC described it as an ‘outrageous’  strike. He was the perfect foil for Steven Gerrard. 
Alonso faced competition for his place from Javier Mascherano and Lucas Leiva. The 2008-09 
season began with rumors that Benitez wanted to sell Alonso to fund the purchase of Gareth 
Barry. It  unsettled Alonso but it did not affect his performance. He scored a deflected goal 
against Chelsea  in Liverpool’s 1-0 victory over Chelsea making Liverpool the first away team to 
win at Stamford bridge in over four years. He became the first player to complete 1000 
successful passes in the season. He scored what was to be his last goal for Liverpool against Hull 
on a rebound. He ultimately left for Real Madrid in a 30 million pound transfer due to differences 
with the then coach Benitez. He was very consistent for his new side and was a part of Marca’s  
La Liga team of the year in his first season. He also scored against Barcelona in crucial games.

Since his departure,  Liverpool were never the same team that they used to be. His supposed 
replacement Alberto Aquilani never had the same quality and had recurring injury problems.  
Suddenly the defence lacked cover and looked shaky. Lucas Leiva improved , but he was never 
in the same mould as Alonso . Liverpool’s League position also slipped down. It is ironic that 
Liverpool have still not found a suitable replacement for him even after three years. The search 
is still on. I doubt if they will find someone as classy as Alonso. Liverpool have had several great 
midfielders like Ian Callaghan, Jan Molby, John Barnes , Steve Mcnamaman, Terry Mcdermott , 
Jamie Redknapp and Steven Gerrard. Apart from Gerrard , I have not seen the others play, but I 
know Alonso was  as good as them if not better. On being asked if he would ever return to 
Liverpool , Alonso did not rule it out and said that his his son was born in Liverpool and he will 
definitely return there with his son some day. I only hope he does, because he is such a genious  
and an  icon to several Liverpool supporters.
