Xabi has been doing excellently well since he became the Bayern Leverkusen coach and I think even if he may not get the league trophy this season, he will definitely get it with in the next 2 season. Although he more likely will get it this season if he is consistent because we know Bayern Munich has not been really consistent on the league while Dortmund would have won it this past few seasons but they have been more dissappointing in their consistency. Bayern Munich has been somehow lucky to be winning the league every season for over a decade now
Apart from still being quite lucky in the Bundesliga for more than a decade, Bayern Munich has also always been quite consistent in the Bundesliga for more than a decade because other teams like Dortmund are not as consistent as Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga even though last season Dortmund almost got a trophy in the Bundesliga. And this season Dortmund doesn't seem to be as good as last season so Bayern Munich will only compete with Bayern Leverkusen for trophies because Bayern Leverkusen now looks more consistent than Bayern Munich even though Xabi also shouldn't underestimate Bayern Munich this season.
Since 2010/2011 season that Bayer Leverkusen have came to runner-up while Dortmund win the league with the difference of seven points ahead of Bayer Leverkusen, more than a decade now the have never smile winning or even come as runner-up, while Bayern Munich has continue to be the one dominanting Bundesliga for more than a decade, at least the Bundesliga should change a hand, and I think that is what is about to happen, Xabi is really doing a very good work just that my fear is that the points between them is very small but still if they can maintain it will be better but still they have to put more effort than what they are playing now, because small mistake will lead to lost of the top. Bayern Munich are the most strongest in the Bundesliga and Don't have strong river to compete with them.
