Most people doubt Ten Hag because previously Leverkusen had a coach who was able to make some big changes to the club and vice versa with some players who have left the club. But we can see next season how Ten Hag can give his best even though he needs time to adjust. At least being able to compete in the top three and qualifying for the Champions League is more than enough because it is not easy to make a team compete for the championship title with the current conditions.
Because it will not be easy enough to compete in the championship position for Leverkusen, at least Leverkusen must be able to bring in some quality players to improve the team's strength to be better. Because Ten Hag will find it easier to organize and provide his tactics to more qualified players so that the Leverkusen team is not in a worse condition next season. I also hope that the Leverkusen team can still be a strong competitor in the Bundesliga even though Alonso is no longer coached.
Alonso went to Real Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen is preparing for the new season with the tactics and players he provided. The Dutch coach may have high capacity, but Leverkusen will continue to play in the Bundesliga for a while with the system created by Xabi Alonso. Later, the Dutch coach may try something with his own tactics.
