Leverkusen were a mediocre team. Last season we did not see a better performance than Leverkusen. The team was at the sixth place in the points table. And the performance was also very poor. The team probably won 14 matches. But this season, Leverkusen has performed well. Did not lose a single match in the Bundesliga. And all this is possible because of Xabi Alonso.
It's true that Leverkusen's players worked hard. Also Xabi Alonso's match strategy was excellent. And because of Alonso's match strategy, Leverkusen team was able to maintain the winning streak. Xabi Alonso is undoubtedly the best coach this year.
Bundesliga is not consider easy at the end of other clubs. They've simply made good records and aiming for greater winning. Bayer Leverkusen have always been the very top club to make accommodations of excellent players. Players worked hard because they're determined for what's coming their path, it's been really a tough period but winning is compulsory for such a club. Bayer Leverkusen was considered the best competitive club this season. Leverkusen headcoach, Xabi Alonso have always been in the original picture when we're talking about determine minds and consistency.
I guess no one could have predicted at the beginning of the year that Bayer Leverkusen would only have one defeat and that it would be in the UEL final. Players who were considered average at the beginning of the season took on great identities as the season progressed. They took the team on their backs and brought them to great places. I wish they had won the Atalanta match as well, but it would be great to have only one defeat in a whole season. They closed the season with 2 trophies and I am sure they will try to be even better next season. Xabi's achievements cannot be ignored. He should be talked about as the first name that made Leverkusen the best.
