There is no doubt about the ability of Xabi when it comes to coaching,he has really taken Leverkusen to a greater heights,and if they can remain consistent this season,then the Bundesliga league is all theirs.Xabi brought in the likes of Xhaka of Arsenal during the summer becausee she knows the players has the quality and the experience of being a leader in his team.With what Xabi is doing,there is very possibility that next season,they will be up their challenging for the Champions league tittle.

Bayern Munich will find it difficult to to turn the league title to theirs with the form that Leverkusen are,and I just think this season is not really for them.I will give it to Xabi Alonso's side who are so eager to be crowned champions this season.

I believe that it is not the Xabis managerial talents that would be in question but more like consistency of the roster. After all, we are talking about Bayern that would be all that much better and ready, whereas we are talking about Leverkusen who hasn't won any title in god knows how many years.

Obviously sometimes some teams shock the world, like how Napoli won the Serie A last season easily, and nobody expected them to be that good, Leverkusen could technically do something like that, but will they be still good when it is March? April? I mean they have been good so far and I think it is going to be a little bit of a trouble for them later down the line and that's a lot more important, to keep being consistent during that period.

Xabi is still doing a good job, it's just that when talking about consistency, it's not the time to blame the players or the coach because when consistency decreases, the coach and players indirectly decrease because we are talking about a team that contains the whole of the players and the coach.

But for now I think saying their consistency decreased just because of the draw against Dortmund is quite funny because after all, seeing from the results that occurred in their last 5 matches only 1 draw and 4 wins is still very good and the draw against Dortmund I think it can be considered reasonable because Dortmund is also one of the big clubs in the Bundesliga and even always a subscription in the Champions League.
