With next season I think Xabi Alonso will do his best for his team. It is true that defending the title will be difficult because the competition will definitely get tougher in the new season. Also, with Leverkusen being a very good team at the moment, I think they will maintain it and become an even bigger team, but it will be a difficult journey for them.
Leverkusen has really performed extraordinary this season. Even though it was very unfortunate they had to lose to Atalanta. Even though that one match would make them the only team in history with a perfect record throughout the season! It is a record that is impossible to repeat even for Leverkusen themselves. Maybe this will be one of the most memorable seasons. But I admit Leverkusen is really on a different level this season. Congratulations to Xabi Alonso and all the players who succeeded in winning the first Bundesliga trophy in the club's history, as well as this being the first double winner for Leverkusen,

I wanted Bayern Leverkusen to win the Europa League trophy so that they could set a record that would be very hard to break, but Atalanta did not allow Bayern Leverkusen to achieve it. Some people had doubts that Bayern Leverkusen would not win the Bundesliga title because of Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga, but when Bayern Leverkusen defeated Bayern Munich in their second match in the Bundesliga, they believed Bayern Leverkusen would win the title. No club is perfect to perform exactly the way they did last season in their current season, so we should expect different displays from Bayern Leverkusen, but they will still be a threat to Bayern Munich next season in the Bundesliga. Football took a new turn in some leagues last season; some average clubs displayed a really good performance in different leagues, and some will play in next season's UEFA Champions competition. Something of this nature will be happening in football because some big clubs can no longer maintain their good performances.
