If Leverkusen had been in great form like last season, it would not have been possible for Bayern Munich to hold on to the top spot. Leverkusen were undefeated last season. The team drew only 6 matches. This season, out of 26 matches, Leverkusen has shared points in 8 matches and lost two matches. Leverkusen's performance has been a bit weak, so it has been easy for Bayern Munich to occupy the top spot of the table.
Bayern Munich now wants to do well in the Champions League. If Bayern Munich can qualify for the final, then I would say Kompany has succeeded. But I don't think Bayern Munich will be able to qualify for the Champions League final.
If Leverkusen were on form like last year, the gap wouldn't be this bgi neither. Just recently, Leverkusen failed to make points when Bayern lost points, that should tell you how much Leverkusen isn't on form. The reason why Bayern Munich will be title winners at the end of the season isn't because Bayern Munich is good, it would be because nobody else is as good as them.
Bayern is worse than last year by many stats, and yet Leverkusen is even worse, that is why even though Bayern is worse than last year, they will end up with a title this year. I wonder how many points they will finish the season with, if it is less than last year then I will laugh at the situation so much. Tuchel got fired for absolutely no reason at all.
