The Rest Is Football

Pressure on Xabi Alonso, Atlético’s Title Hopes & La Liga’s Fall in Europe

02 Dec 2025

Description

Real Madrid have now drawn three straight games in La Liga, and some Madridistas are already calling for Xabi Alonso to be sacked. Is he genuinely under pressure this early in his tenure? Meanwhile, Diego Simeone’s Atlético Madrid have won seven in a row in all competitions. After parts of the fanbase questioned his future just weeks ago, could El Cholo actually turn things around and mount a serious title challenge? Gary & Alex also discuss La Liga clubs losing their grip on European football. English sides have beaten Spanish teams in 10 of the last 11 meetings.
