Many predict that Bayer Leverkusen will be the center of attention in the next Champions League and want to see how Xabi Alonso competes with many outstanding coaches who have experience in the Champions League, but we cannot guarantee to what extent Leverkusen can survive in the Champions League despite the previous unbeaten achievements, it is possible but it may not be what we imagine or go the other way and cannot survive even in the group qualification.
But it is interesting how far Xabi Alonso will take Bayer Leverkusen, whether it will reach the final like Dortmund or not.
What's interesting, and also the big question, is whether Alonso will be able to maintain his squad's performance in the new season. The reason is, we don't even know anything about how Leverkusen will carry out their matches with a fairly busy schedule and competing in a more prestigious competition, namely the Champions League. I can't speculate and assume too far, before we see it, also when they start their Domestic League competition. there are many teams that emerge, they win, then sink the following season. This also applies to Leverkusen when they start the new season, even though they almost completely played without losing. But in football, everything is possible. perhaps, Leverkusen will be the center of attention. or, they will suddenly sluggish like the previous team. However, at least Leverkusen has a very competent coach. Also, they have a pretty cool squad when they play match after match in the previous season. We don't need to speculate too far in advance, let's just see which teams will be their opponents in the group phase and how they perform.
