Also, the loss to Leipzig has ruined Xavi Alonso's unbeaten record with his team. I was expecting him to reach Pep or Heynckes level, but it was wrong. That's sad Xabi's unbeaten record must end this fast.
That's some huge work by Guardiola and Heynckes of course. But doing it with Bayern Munich is easier on paper. I don't mean everyone can do the same though, you know what I mean.
Leverkusen also has really good players but on paper they are still a less valuable team. But it all depends on having a strong team play.
I wish Xabi Alonso broke that record as well. It would be unforgettable...~
That series is 90% Heikens' merit. He built a team that dominated Europe and not just the Bundesliga. Guardiola just took a top team and was knocked out of the Champions League three times in a row by Spanish clubs, that's his whole story in Bayern
As for comparisons, yes, they are incorrect in the sense that Xabi had much fewer resources for such an achievement and he was able to do it with an underdog.
