a very strong team will occasionally experience a decline in performance and fall from the top of the standings and Leverkusen current position is very dangerous when they are very strong, they perform optimally without looking at the difference in points for the teams below them and continue to maintain the top of the standings and in the end some players feel tired and physically weak experience decreased performance. remember, Bayern Munich is a big team that has dominated the bundesliga since decades of decline and Leverkusen could also experience the same thing.

on the one hand, we have to remember Tuchel strategy in the previous season. Dortmund was at the top of the standings. Bayern Munich under him appeared slowly but still had a close point difference and when towards the end of the season Bayern Munich was able to overtake Dortmund.
that's why I say Leverkusen position is very dangerous as long as it doesn't provide a big point difference Bayern Munich can shift it when the end of the season approaches.

Sure if they can maintain this winning and drawing streak they can surely become a champion, but the position of Bayer Leverkusen is very vulnerable it is very vulnerable for them to make mistakes because of their position, and sure Leverkusen can also make mistakes and that will be the signal for Bayern Munich to get a chance in snatching the 1st position, as Bayer Leverkusen got 42 points while Bayern Munich got 38 points, and right now next match will be on January 13 and we will have a long wait for this next matchday,

Although there have been no official confirmation to the fact that Xabi is currently the best youngest Coach in the whole of Europe but then by his results and performance so far, he appears to be one which is currently not in doubt and I must commend how well he has done with a team that wasn't expected to do this much because of the quality of their players.

Achieving such heights with an average team as Leverkusen which have now turned out a big team, means if he is in charge of a bigger team with a better squad he should do well but then contrarily it's possible if he goes to a big team that has got big players and big names such as Madrid, these big names/players may not give much cooperation like did others in the small team he did coached and achieved much, but all things been equal if they cooperate well with him then his success is sure, a team like Madrid will sure pose some challenges to him but his ability to be able to get pass those challenges and get good results will make him a world class coach.

For sure there is no given confirmation that Xavi Alonso is the best but based on his performance and the performance of the team he is handling sure and at this kind of peak in the performance of the Leverkusen in just a short amount of time the team have managed to get quite a remarkable feat in not really having a lost record even though they got draws right now the team still doesn't have any losses,

So for sure if there is a given title that Xavi Alonso is a great young coach in the history of the Bundesliga for sure he is surely qualified enough, to get that title,

You are right on that , that it will be difficult for Darmstadt to get an or any point out of the next games.
But on the other hand we have seen that Dortmund making some bad surprises , specially against such teams we think they win them.
With what Dortmund has played some matches the last weeks its possible to see some unexpected result.
My bet there will be for sure on the win for BVB.

For now, Dortmund is in a safe spot and I think by just keeping this kind of position I think they are good as long as they are not in the relegation and they are still in the line where they can compete with the Europa League, even though it is only with the group stage but it is quite good enough,

Darmstadt I think has no chance of getting up as fast as they can and evading Relegation they need to keep on dreaming that they are actually not getting into the 1st division again, but will surely get below the 2nd division,
