Leipzig have got what they wanted now. I still remember Timo Werner's marvelous season in the Bundesliga like 28 goals and 8 assists in 34 games. He played for Chelsea for two seasons only. Now I hope to see the same ambition from Werner here. Leipzig might be able to leave Dortmund behind in this season actually. If they get efficiency from Werner a lot then they might get ahead of all of the teams except Bayern Munich in the standings. This is just a guess for now and I'd be confident of something more later on.
The performance of RB Leipzig in the last season was quite commendable. And with Timo Werner in the team that performance is only going to get better in my opinion. They will be playing in the Champions League and I am quite sure that it is going to be something for Timo Werner to look forward to. Even though if he had stayed at Manchester City he would have had a greater chance of winning the Champions League.
But at RB Leipzig he will have a chance of performing better and standing out. And I believe with his help RB Leipzig will be able to push for the top two positions in the Bundesliga this season. Bayern Munich is going to be unbeatable by other teams in the Bundesliga as well as by RB Leipzig. So it is quite pointless to hope for the first position. However, I believe that the second position is within their grasp.
In fact, the previous season Leipzig experienced a decline in performance by being in 4th position, even though in the 2020/2021 season
Leipzig managed to be in 2nd position. But if we talk about this season in which Leipzig managed to bring back Timo Werner, I have the same
opinion as you, are very optimistic that Leipzig can regain second place in the Bundesliga. Because it is too difficult for any team in the Bundesliga
to beat Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga. Likewise with Leipzig, their realistic target is to reach second place in the Bundesliga,
and the current Leipzig squad I'm sure they can achieve. Moreover, Dortmund as Leipzig's strongest competitor is not in good condition,
Dortmund has been abandoned by Haaland and his successor Sebastien Haller has suffered a serious injury. So this is a good opportunity
for Leipzig to reach second place in the Bundesliga.
