Leverkusen seems to have some buzz; I understand this. Though last season was strong, that does not ensure a dang thing this time around. Teams change; strategies change; Leverkusen's going to have to stay up. Bayern is looking for blood since they have a new coach. Last season's debacle won't be allowed to recur. Not least of all let us not overlook Dortmund. Should they organize their affairs, they can quickly disrupt the Leverkusen-Bayern party

Calling any winners here is far too early. That's the game's brilliance; anything may happen in it

It's going to be a long run for the Bavarians, but not to worry because the Champions will always come out to be the very best. Borrusia Dortmund and Bayern Munich are the preeminent rivals for Bayer Leverkusen. The Bundesliga title becomes very competitive and running for the elite league. Bayer Leverkusen have incredible odds to meet next season, they have to fight their way through the economical paths and hitting the top targets.

Bayer Leverkusen's development and change thanks to Xabi Alonso has improved the quality of the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich dominated the Bundesliga for many years but that ended when Xabi Alonso became the manager of Bayer Leverkusen. Xabi has the capacity to revolutionize not only his team but also the Bundesliga. Bayern and Borussia have brought in surprise managers this season. Borussia will build a philosophy of the game and the closest they can continue their culture is with Nuri Sahin. Bayern will be coached by Kompany, which no one expected. In my opinion, this season the Bundesliga will be a battle between Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund. I can keep Bayern out of the circle. Because it is very difficult to try to understand what they are doing.

For obvious reasons I may not agree with you about Bayern Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund becoming the most competitive teams in the Bundesliga this season because I could remember vividly how Borussia Dortmund were not able to win the Bundesliga even in some cases where they were topping the league table but they always fall prey to Bayern Munich and if not that Xabi Alonso came to rescue the Bundesliga from the hands of Bayern Munich and won it for Bayern Leverkusen I would have still agreed that Bayern Munich could have still dominated the Bundesliga because even Borussia Dortmund and the other teams didn't show any good signs of winning the Bundesliga but all thanks to Xabi Alonso, he made history for Bayern Leverkusen. Borussia Dortmund is more concerned about developing young players and later sell them off, seems they are into some kind of business with the club but let's see if we are going to see a different thing from the new coach. I still believe Bayern Munich will come back stronger this season because they still have a nice squad that can compete alongside Bayern Leverkusen.
