Con un mensaje muy claro. Así salió Xabi Alonso a la rueda de prensa previa al partido ante el Kairat Almaty en la Champions League. El técnico evidenció sus ganas de dejar atrás lo ocurrido ante el Atlético en el Metropolitano y pidió que todos los sentidos estuvieran en el partido de este martes para evitar sorpresas despues de la dolorosa derrota. “Tanto en la victoria como en la derrota nos tiene que durar 24 horas la sensación. Hay que pasar página. Estamos en Champions. Las 24 horas posteriores al partido te quedas un poco enganchado, pero ya estamos pensando en mañana. No queremos dejarnos puntos importantes”, aseguró.
Planteamiento
“Todos los partidos me dicen cosas, me gusta analizarnos para ver cómo lo habíamos preparado y cómo han salido para tomar decisiones de cara al futuro. Con los jugadores que tenemos podemos optar a otras cosas. Tenemos muchas opciones en el medio, con extremos también. El otro día no fue como esperábamos, pero para lo que viene por delante tenemos muchas opciones”.
Conexión del vestuario
“No he visto falta de conexión. He visto que existe esa conexión. Como ha dicho Valverde, es fundamental construir una idea de fútbol y una idea de espíritu de equipo. Todavía estamos dando pasos adelante. Igual para dar dos hacia delante hay que dar uno atrás. Todavía estamos definiendo cómo queremos ser y eso lo vamos a mejorar”.
¿Es todo problemas de actitud?
“No solo es la actitud, creo que fue ritmo y cosas tácticas que hemos analizado. No solo explico todo con la actitud, eso es simplista. Hay que mejorar cosas a nivel de juego. No competimos lo suficientemente bien. Eso es parte del proceso de adaptación. Llevamos unos 58 días. Ha dolido, pero ahora ya estamos en modo Champions”
Distancia de Madrid
“Tienes que adaptarte. Hemos cambiado un poco la hoja de ruta habitual pero en fútbol el más inteligente es el que se sabe adaptar mejor. Es un partido más y no es un impedimento ni una excusa eso. Después de empezar con la victoria queremos prolongarla más”.
Rival
“Es su primera participación, un buen equipo que hace las cosas bien y nos va a exigir”.

Chiefs left tackle Josh Simmons to miss second straight game due to personal reasons
Getty Images After missing his team's Week 6 win over the Detroit Lions due to what was described as a "family situation," Kansas City Chiefs rookie left tackle Josh Simmons was ruled out of the team's Week 7 game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday after missing practice throughout the week for personal reasons. Simmons, the No. 32 overall pick in this year's draft out of Ohio State, returned home to California prior to Kansas City's matchup against Detroit last week and Chiefs coach Andy Reid offered very few details about the situation when speaking with reporters.

3 Best MLB Free-Agent Fits For Pete Alonso if He Leaves New York Mets
Pete Alonso is hitting the open market, and it's difficult to gauge if the New York Mets want to keep the first baseman on a long-term deal. Where have we heard this before? Oh, right, this happened last offseason, too.Nevertheless, the five-time All-Star is coming off another potent season at the plate (38 home runs, 126 RBIs and a .272/.347/.524 slash line) and continues to be one of the most formidable hitters that MLB has to offer. Granted, Alonso's defense (he totaled a first baseman-high 10 errors and posted a career-worst -9 defensive runs saved in 2025) continues to be an area of concern. One way or another, though, Alonso will be a difference-maker for a lineup, whether it be in Queens or outside New York City.Here are the three best free-agent fits for Alonso should he and the Mets […]
