Last year, Alonso identified his opponents' weaknesses very well and developed tactics accordingly. He didn't just develop a tactic. This shows us that he is versatile. I am hopeful about Xabi. I also wonder if next year he will show us how long he can keep the record. They are still undefeated in official matches in Germany. Their only defeat was against Atalanta in the grand final.
Leverkusen's defeat in the grand final against Atalanta was very natural and normal even though the location was very painful for Leverkusen. However, for next season there are many fans who will again see how Alonso will spend another season with Leverkusen in a greater competition, namely the Champions League and also the Bundesliga, where Alonso will also be determined to maintain his unbeaten record in the Bundesliga next season again with conditions which is a bit heavy of course.
Leverkusen are a very good and strong squad, but even with that, I’m not sure if they can be able to do the same thing they did last season in the Bundesliga, which is the unbeaten record. They can take the trophy, but you see, that unbeaten record is what I doubt because many clubs will come stronger and even do better than what people expected.
Although I know that Bayern Leverkusen are currently one of the best clubs in the Bundesliga apart from Bayern Munich, I can’t still compare Bayern Leverkusen to Bayern Munich just because Bayern Munich experienced a bad performance for one season. They may come back stronger next season, and next season, the Bundesliga will be so competitive.
