Bayern Leverkusen will no doubt perform very well in their league this season, with an improved tactics from what we saw last season. I believe they have equally learn from their loss to Atalanta in the europa league final. But what I'm not sure is, if they are going to win the league again. But if you look at this Bayern Leverkusen squad you will see that there is enough joy and happiness in their dressing room. Take it or leave it any team that want to win the Bundesliga title will have to go through Bayern Leverkusen. There is enough confidence in their players right now. They won the league unbeaten last season and there this feeling of let's do it again that will be within them. In the Champions league they are going to make it through the round of 16 this am sure, but anything further than that I can't guarantee that.
Defending a trophy has been one of the tough things most teams struggle to do, they don't easily get away with it, only a few teams who have dominated a certain league so possess the ability to maintain such serially but in the case of Leverkusen who is just doing it more like for the first time, they are going to find it challenging but this doesn't mean they can't achieve it or they are going to perform poorly but it's simply not going to come easy, this almost everyone seem to agree with.
Well, in the new season it will be a challenge for Alonso and his team. Will he be able to defend the Bundesliga title, or will they experience a decline in performance. It is not easy to maintain the performance and consistency of his team, I am sure Alonso knows that. That is why a team usually needs time to build a foundation to maintain their consistency from season to season. Alonso is truly a great coach, he has implemented an extraordinary system and strategy. However, it is not an easy job for his team to be able to become Bundesliga champions in two consecutive seasons. Moreover, Bayer Leverkusen will have a fairly tight match schedule. So, we agree. At the same time, the German League giant, Bayern Munich, will not allow Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga title again. Although it is designed by a young coach who does not have much experience, the fact is that Bayern Munich has great players in its squad. In addition, Kompany has run his pre-season very well. There are other teams that can also complicate Leverkusen's steps, maybe Stuttgart can also provide tough competition. Perhaps Dortmund has the same plan. I suspect the 2024/25 Bundesliga season will be more exciting than the previous season.
