If Xabi Alonso will have such thought in his mind that Vincent Kompany may not be able to make Bayern Munich win the league title, then he better have a change of mind and be at a better position than the last season. He could feel that way but he shouldn’t be too comfortable with that thought and not put the required effort to make the team repeat what they’ve done last season to win the league title. It is going to be a very exciting season full of competition, so no team should underrate the other and play to their best in order to win the league trophy.
A club should not underestimate another club, even if the club has a bad performance. Moreover, what we are talking about here is a club like Bayern Munich, which is a club that has above average players who can make everything better. Regardless of their coach being considered to lack experience, I am sure they will always be in tough competition, perhaps what makes the difference is whether they will be able to perform consistently or not.
However, with the squad that Vincent Kompany currently has, there is no reason for Xabi Alonso to underestimate Bayern Munich. Also keep in mind that they will be targeting something big after they failed to defend their title this season. Surely they will have that enthusiasm which will motivate them to be able to play even better than before. Anything can happen next season, so Xabi Alonso must not lose focus which will allow them to decline.
