Any idea how Leverkusen is going to perform in the Champions League competition?
I actually want to see Leverkusen from well in the Champions League competition. For some reason, I also want to see a final between Real Madrid and Leverkusen. I think because I want to see how great coaches, Alonso and Ancelotti does against each other. I understand that this is not a good comparison and probably there is a very high chance that Real Madrid is actually going to win very easily. Because of the track record that they have in the Champions League. But it will still be something to watch. The expectation is really high from Leverkusen. I hope they will be able to deliver properly on that.
The UEFA Champions League final is for the big boys and for strong clubs that have become the main winnings, usually settled with strong tactics. Bayer Leverkusen was considered untouchable not until they got thrashed by Atalanta in the Europa League final. This was absolutely a positive result and we know how determined they were during the competitive form they developed.
All the football lovers actually missed the opportunity to watch Ancelotti and Xavi Alonso when Alonso and his boys was unable to win the Europa League. Else it would have been in the Super Cup that we will watch these two great managers. Champions League might not be the best place to see them meet because they might not even meet till is eliminated. Unless they are both on the same group. Without being told we are all aware that Real Madrid has the most complete squad for the next season Champions League. So should not compare Real Madrid as a team with Bayer Leverkusen, neither do we do that with their coaches they are in different classes. While Ancelotti is a legend, Alonso is pretty new in the industry but with the capacity to break and make history.
