I think Xabi Alonso must experience defeat against Atalanta in order to improve what he needs to improve in his current main squad, after all we have not seen whether Leverkusen will keep all their players there, there could be new players who Xabi might recruit. Alonso is of course to be able to strengthen their main squad in the new season, I also can't say more, let alone predict that next season Munich will play better with their new head coach, of course there will be adaptations which may also require time to play better.

Leverkusen will also remain careful after experiencing their first defeat last season. Obviously this can make all the teams in the Bundesliga learn from Atalanta how to deal with Xabi Alonso's style of play, but it is clearly not easy to make a team like Atalanta and I also don't want to say that Atalanta is enough. lucky to win the UEL, but they were quite good at dealing with attacks from Leverkusen, that was good enough to see, I'm sure Leverkusen will remain a difficult team next season not only in the Bundesliga but also in other competitions such as in the UCL next season. I think every team always has tougher challenges every season, which is why Leverkusen has certainly prepared them because their game will of course be at an even higher level next season.
