Preseason results shouldn't be used as a benchmark for a team's strength, as all teams still have time to make changes before the next season resumes as usual. So, we should all just enjoy the preseason matches as casual entertainment, as every coach will undoubtedly provide the best guidance for their players when they see their preseason results are so poor. And even teams that win in preseason will still make changes for the better, as they have no guarantee of success in their respective domestic leagues next season.

It's crazy to use preseason results to judge a team knowing how less important they can be, it is mostly an extention of training to boost preparedness for the new season ahead, so such results cannot be used to judge a team. I agree the preseason games should be seen as just entertainment and let us use it to see the newly bought players on their first appearance in their new teams aswell.

Of course pre season result can’t be used to judge how a team is going to perform in the coming season but some results in pre season are still very much unacceptable. Bayern leverkusen losing to flamengo U20 is unacceptable especially under a new management, I think this is telling us that Ten hag really have a lot of work to do, it shows his team is not really, going 5-0 flat to under 21 boys is just too bad. Been it pre season or not most Bayern leverkusen fans will be doubting if Erik ten hag is the right man for the job.

Well won’t be saying much but as for me also I would just say it will be a big surprise to me if leverkusen can make the champions league next season, they have lost a lot of quality players and they are not making any impact in the transfer market to even replace them.
