Xabi Alonso for The Guardian 15 years ago: "From a Spanish perspective, what matters is the ball - possession of it, knowing what to do with it and when. The identity is clear. Technique is vital and intelligence is fundamental. You need players who interpret the play, who can adapt, and do not just have one concrete skill or characteristic." A short but meaningful description of Spanish football and a few reasons behind its success. 🇪🇸
