A lot of teams will be coming back to their original strength next season, Dortmund is one of the teams i predict about making changes. It is something to expect Dortmund to finish behind Bayern, despite increasing their strength Bayern are doing more to also defend their title.
I know that some people are waiting for Leverkusen new manager to start his season and fail, so they can say it was all his fault at Manchester United, it might fail them because Erik ten Hag can far become the better replacement of Xabi, possibly go head to head against Bayern Munich even if chances of becoming Bundesliga champions is low, at least it worth the try to strengthen the team and league for another season.
Dortmund has always tried hard to compete with Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title, but its efforts have always failed to surpass Bayern strength. Leverkusen presence in the title race has put Dortmund under even more pressure, the situation Dortmund is experiencing is almost the same as Arsenal in the EPL, their strength is still below other top teams.
The change of coach and the departure of several top players means that Leverkusen must regroup its strengths. Ten Hag also needs to adapt to his new club so that Leverkusen can maintain the momentum like when handled by Xabi Alonso. We will soon see how Ten Hag is able to handle his new club, but considering the strength of Bayern Munich which is still very strong, he will have a hard time achieving what was achieved in the Alonso era.
