Bayer Leverkusen going for another unbeatable season record isn't going to be an easy one but their chances of lifting the trophy back to back is still on the high side with Xabi Alonso still as their manager. Especially now that Bayern Munich who the very team have a tight competition with them has a new manager in place which I don't see the possibility of Bayer Munich up this season.
I doubt if they are going to make another unbeatable season record, even if eventually they succeed at it in the bundesliga, I doubt if they will succeed at it in the champion's league this season, it's been very rare on the record any team who has scaled through the champions league unbeaten, and Leverkusen who is a first timer cannot at this point be able to be able to pull up such, not when the likes of Madrid are there and Manchester city who is also aiming at the trophy too. Xabi is putting all efforts to getting prepared for the new season a d so far his potential to winning the bundesliga is very high and most likely will help him.
We just need to wait with what steps Leverkusen will take this time, although maybe their previous record cannot be returned and done again this season but they also have to maintain their performance and consistency so that competition continues to occur.
Now Xabi's test will begin where he must be able to prove himself that the magic that was in his 2 seasons at Bayern before will not run out this season, especially for now their status is the defending champion so inevitably they have to go all out from the start so that they are not compared to last season's performance and so that they are not depressed just because their performance does not match the expectations we want.
The benchmark is still the same where this season is likely to be filled with only a few clubs such as Bayern, Dortmund, Leverkusen and Leipzig but in this case it will not rule out the possibility of some dark horse clubs such as Stutgart who played well last season can be repeated and I also expect Freiburg and Union Berlin to bite back this season after last season they were really unreliable.
