<p><strong><em><a href="/">Bornheimer</a></em></strong> &#8211; Real Madrid’s 1–2 defeat to Manchester City has intensified scrutiny on Xabi Alonso. The team’s inconsistency fuels doubt outside the club, yet the atmosphere inside the dressing room tells a different story. Players insist they remain united and committed to their manager, believing the team still has enough strength to turn the season around.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Squad Reaffirms Its Full Support for the Coach</strong></h2>



<p>Madrid’s struggles—only two wins in their last eight matches—sparked speculation about Alonso’s future. Jude Bellingham quickly dismissed those concerns. He said that daily work with the coach builds confidence and keeps the team grounded. According to him, the dressing room stays focused, motivated, and convinced that the squad can break this negative run.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Internal Conversations Strengthen Commitment</strong></h2>



<p>Bellingham revealed that several internal discussions earlier in the season helped shape a stronger bond between the players and Alonso. He stressed that no one shows signs of surrender or frustration. Instead, the squad continues to push forward, believing effort and consistency will eventually shift momentum back in their favor.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Rodrygo Sends Emotional Message of Unity</strong></h2>



<p>Rodrygo delivered his own show of support, especially after scoring the opener against Manchester City. He explained that his celebration was a message to fans and critics: the team stands with Alonso. Rodrygo admitted the team faces a difficult period, yet he believes unity is the key to achieving their goals and restoring stability.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Courtois Defends Alonso After Intense Champions League Clash</strong></h2>



<p>Thibaut Courtois also backed his coach, arguing that the loss to City should not define Alonso’s work. He said the squad gave everything on the pitch, even if the result fell short of their expectations. Courtois acknowledged the points lost in La Liga and the pressure in Europe, but he insisted the team remains committed to recovering quickly and competing at Madrid’s usual standard.</p>
