How was their 50m man ?
Can you call someone world class if he needed top performances cajoled out of him? Alonso was an under-performing player during what proved to be his penultimate year. He vastly improved when it looked like a bang average player, albeit one that Rafa thought he could work with, was being pursued as a replacement. Do you remember the sleepy Alonso that used to stroll around on occasions, or do you just remember the adulation he rightly deserved when he could be arsed?So the only way he was able to extract world class performances from a world class player was to actively attempt to replace him with an average player.
Dastardly plan.

How true do you think the reports were that Rafa was trying to sell him but nobody wanted him?I was never one of the fans who were calling Alonso all the names under The Lying Rag in that penultimate season
He wasn't at his best, but he was nowhere near as bad as some suggested, because he was obviously one of the best CM players in Europe

Or it was deserved and he was less than world class for more than a season.The criticism of Alonso was over the top.
As for whether he was world class or not, well yeah, he was.
