Xabi Alonso succeeded in instilling a winning mentality in each of his players, so that the unbeaten record they recorded last season was not just luck. The competition for trophies next season will certainly become more competitive, Bayern Munich and all the Bundesliga contestants will certainly put pressure on Leverkusen. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso ambition to repeat his success is quite large, his decision to stay with Leverkusen shows this. Throughout the club history, Leverkusen have been trying to get to that point, they are used to suffering, their success last season changed history. The journey next season feels even more interesting, because Leverkusen will be in the Champions League, the challenges they will face are clearly much bigger than last season.
Xabi Alonso has the opportunity to defend his title again, but repeating his streak without defeat seems unlikely to happen again. Bayern Munich has indeed changed coaches, but it looks like Kompany will have difficulty bringing Kane to success. Alonso just needs to polish his squad a little so that it is fresher when entering the new season. However, Alonso is clearly under pressure if he continues to be compared to his achievements this season.
I doubt Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen can dominate the Bundesliga next season. Leverkusen cannot win the title by going undefeated for a whole season. If Leverkusen wants to dominate the Bundesliga next season, Leverkusen management should definitely try to strengthen their squad. We saw the Napoli team dominate the 2022-23 season and win the title. However, last season we saw this team finish tenth in the table. So Leverkusen will have to play very carefully from the start of the season if they want to win the title.
There won't be too many expectations from Bayern Munich next season. Bayern Munich have a strong squad but new coach Vincent Kompany is not experienced enough. I don't know why Bayern Munich have appointed such an inexperienced coach.
