Leverkusen are going to have another tournament to compete in this season you know, the Champions League.    I'm really curious about how good Xabi Alonso will deal with this.

I mean he is going to be expected to be successful in not only Bundesliga but also there this time. If I elaborate "success in the CL", I assume the expectation would be to qualify from league phase at least.

Can they do this though? If we see another dedicated effort this year too then why not?    With that kind of a performance they can even beat some of the biggest title contenders.
