Bayer Leverkusen lost against Atalanta is one important thing for them as a team, especially for Xabi Alonso as a manager. I believe this could give Bayer Leverkusen a lesson, we know that there is no perfection in any team. So, maybe from this loss Bayer Leverkusen will learn a lot, and ready to give their all abilities for the next season, this is what i am talking about before, so we need to see surprise from Leverkusen and this will be a big surprise for everyone.
Bayer Leverkusen will struggle to make things standing next season because every oppositions they face will likely play their best against Leverkusen. Remember Bayer Leverkusen have one of the current best manager in the European world of football, Xabi Alonso the man that won the Bundesliga title unbeaten and have also dwell more of his valuable time on the squad for the purpose of preparation next season.
Bayer Leverkusen had a fine performance in the concluded season and next season they will be participating in champions league. Champions league next season is really going to be tough and interesting because of the teams that will be participating in the league, it is possible for Bayer Leverkusen to be knocked out in the group stage competition. When it comes to champions league I'm not too sure about Bayer Leverkusen if they can last in the competition because of how to tough the Champions League.
But Bayer Leverkusen still have the chances of breaking a good record next season season but as for champions league I can tell how far they will go because it is a league full of tough and experienced team.
It should be with what Bayer Leverkusen has achieved and how they experienced quite significant improvements, this will mean that Xavi Alonso will get more optimal support next season, and in that way, he will have more chance to get the players on his buying list, so that Xabi Alonso will have more options in developing his strategy.
It's just that it might be an obstacle for Xabi Alonso, that the good performance of Bayer Leverkusen last season, will make many teams look at and be interested in players who have impressive performances, which means Leverkusen could lose their key players and that could affect their performance next season.
