If Leverkusen can maintain their consistency this season then their chances of winning the title again are still wide open for now Leverkusen is in 5th place with a 3 point difference from Bayern Munich 1 mistake will make the distance between him and the top of the standings even further therefore Leverkusen must continue to fight not to lose important points in every match.
Yes for the transfer market to open later Xabi Alonso must recruit several players especially in the back line I see Leverkusen's back line is a bit weak at this time unlike last season which looked very solid in 6 matches Leverkusen has experienced 2 draws and 1 defeat that is a bad result at the start of this season.
At the beginning of this season it was already apparent that Leverkusen was not as strong as last season and indeed what Leverkusen experienced was like other teams that had made surprises in general so I am not surprised that they are not as strong as last season anymore now.
Xabi Alonso even though he did not make many changes to the Leverkusen squad this season but they looked struggling in the first few matches and that was a sign that they were not strong anymore and I am pessimistic about Leverkusen this season and I think they will not be able to defend their title.
It is indeed not easy to maintain consistency if the club is not a club that usually competes at the top of the standings. Leverkusen is a club that gave a surprise last season and broke Bayern Munich's dominance, usually in the following season such clubs have difficulty maintaining their performance and many experience a decline but currently Leverkusen can still be said to be performing well even though they are not as strong as last season. Not only Leverkusen is experiencing a decline, Stuttgart, the second club that performed impressively last season in the Bundesliga is also experiencing the same thing, now it looks difficult to compete with the top 5 clubs and has achieved 3 draws and 1 defeat, he is in 8th place for the time being.

Leverkusen's success last season in winning the Bundesliga title and breaking Bayern Munich's dominance was the beginning of everything so that this season it is already clear that the Bundesliga competition is much fiercer with the development of several teams competing at the top.
However, for Leverkusen I am very pessimistic this season, it is still early in the season but we can see that their strength has not developed and is not even better than last season so in my opinion their percentage of being able to defend the title is very small.

We finally saw Bayern Leverkusen doing the impossible. It was literally impossible until it finally happened last season. I would love to see  Borussia Dortmund fight for the tittle this season. This is something they should have won years back but they couldn't. I still expect a tougher challenge from the defending champions, in my mind, I don think they they have whatever it takes to win the bundesliga league competition. They have not kicked off same way they did last season but all hopes are not dead. They didn't even see their players from last season leaving. Did they?!

Dortmund has really deformed this season, they are not playing like they did last season, and they will play their next UCL game against Real Madrid, which I do not think they will win because the way they are playing this season is really weak. they need to wake up and do the necessary. Currently, only Bayern Munich and Leverkusen are impressive in the Bundesliga, and many believe they will win the title again. However, if Dortmund continue to play weak games in the the league, it is likely that Bayern Munich will win.

Bellingham recently joined Madrid and has won what Dortmund had not given him at the club, winning the league, the Champions League, and the Super Cup. In my opinion, Dortmund are the ones who are making things difficult for them. I'm not sure why they usually sell their key players who will help them win many things at the club, but they didn't care they sold key players while not bringing in players who are better than the ones they sold out, they really need to improve if they what to win titles this season.

Leverkusen did surprise everyone after Xabi's arrival and brought the club to the right realm, but seeing them this season has declined somewhat and in my opinion they were not good at the beginning if that happens again then I think they will be eliminated from the Bundesliga title race indeed the match is still long but consistency must be maximized so that the unexpected incident in yesterday's match does not happen again, Leverkusen also did not improve their defense so that goals that should have been anticipated failed and had consequences for the opponent.

In my opinion in this period Leverkusen must strengthen their squad again both in terms of defense and attack, in my observation they have declined and in my opinion Frankfurt is above them at this time, Xabi must be sensitive to what makes his club weak because now his name has started to rise after last season and if this season drops then he will not be seen again, in my opinion Leverkusen must have a new strategy for now.
It seems that Leverkusen will return to normal and what happened last season was just a momentary surprise, and that often happens in several other league teams for surprises that occur.

I see Leverkusen's performance this season is much different compared to last season and they don't have a strong chemistry anymore for an impressive performance, I think everything is over for Leverkusen and it is very unlikely that they can defend the title.

If we talk about what needs to be fixed from Leverkusen, I think there are quite a lot, especially their defense line which at the beginning of this season looked very bad and not only that but the team game is well organized again.

It's not too difficult for a club like Bayern Munich to get back on track as the strongest and most consistent team. They have a qualified squad and are very experienced, coach Kompany just needs to maintain the relationship with the players. Because from what I observed when Tuchel became Bayern Munich coach, he often did not get along with players. So if you can't maintain a good relationship then in the field the players will be difficult to manage. Tuchel did not get respect from the players who were finally fired. Well the same thing applies to kompany.
Very true the impact of a relationship with the players is one that can not be be overly emphasized and the fact that Kompany has got it with his players is enough to help him to succeed this season in the German Bundesliga but they cannot be seen as the strongest already but they have been really consistent even much long before now so i can agree with their consistency as it has earned them some dominance in the league, but they have got some work to still do this season.
This is something very important, because after all they are a team that in a team must have a very good relationship, it will make them able to quickly find very good chemistry and it will greatly affect their game on the field. Things outside of technical like this must also be considered by a team, because how can they possibly create a very good and solid game while in their relationship they are not good. Because this is not an individual game, this is a team game where everyone must be involved. For example, on the field there are 11 players, well from 11 players who have different positions with their respective roles there must be continuity with each other, they can understand each other, that's what will make them create a solid game.

Dominant team Bayern Munich last season performed poorly and experienced significant decline which gave opportunities to several other team, but last season was also nightmare for Dortmund because Leverkusen performance was beyond expectations to be able to win the title, this is something that may be difficult to repeat this season or in the future.
Bayern Munich performance this season has started to improve but Leverkusen and Dortmund themselves this season are not so satisfying and they are left behind by several weak team who usually enliven the Bundesliga by ending the season in the middle rankings, I don't have any hope for Dortmund this season, if you put hopes on Dortmund maybe it will only end in disappointment.
Moreover, several Leverkusen players this season are rumored to be leaving in the upcoming transfer window and this is something that could affect their performance in being able to defend the title, the only favorite who is sure to be able to compete with Bayern Munich is Leipzig but I still choose Bayern Munich as the favorite who will win the title at the end of the season.

This season is new one and it's entirely different from previous season, watching the epic consistent performance and stats of Leverkusen, they've been having greater heights to win matches. They're the best club in Germany currently, we've watched and observed their style of play, it amazes me for such a top club to be in the front futures. Bayer Leverkusen headcoach, Xabi Alonso conquered Bundesliga last season, he won major titles and now put his club in a position that they're strong enough to hold on big winnings. Bayer Leverkusen didn't give up this season, watching their epic performance against their opponents, it's improving.

To be precise, Leverkusen is one of the best clubs in the Bundesliga at the moment. However, Xabi Alonso failed to lead his team to maintain last season's impressive performance without experiencing a single defeat. Now they are starting to have difficulty regaining the top of the standings after only being able to achieve 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, now they are left in fifth position with 11 points. The season is still long, Leverkusen is still able to improve its performance to compete with Bayern Munich who are starting to perform optimally this season. It is difficult to say that Leverkusen will win the Bundesliga again this season because the level of competition is more competitive than last season.

If truly Vincent Kompany has a good relationship with his players, I think he is half way of making a good team because a good relationship with the players will give them more motivation because they wouldn't want to disappoint their coach whom has been so nice to the point of playing with them on the pitch during training. Bayern Munich is already doing well in the league this season as they are topping the league already but they need to improve in the champions league competition because losing against a team that is inexperienced in the champions league is not a good one.

Winning a major trophy this season is possible for Bayern Munich looking at their performance, they are ahead of Leverkusen and other teams which I think do not have the quality players in their squad so they just need to keep playing well and keep winning matches they will get the league title back by the end of the season.

In my opinion, Kompany is able to build a harmonious environment within the team, his very young age as a manager, helps him understand the players desires better (Kompany is only 3 years apart from Thomas Muller). This is his first season, and of course he will try his best to win trophies, especially the Bundesliga trophy. His reputation as a manager will be at stake, because if he fails, Bayern Munich management might fire him. In the Bundesliga, the only threat that Bayern Munich should be wary of is Leverkusen, other than that maybe they don't need to worry too much. It is true, the attributes possessed by Bayern Munich are more complete, they have an even squad depth and have more qualified rotation options than all the contestants in the Bundesliga. Besides that, after the international break, Kompany must spur his squad to perform better. Kompany must fix the weaknesses in his defense, the defeat to Aston Villa, being held to a draw by Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt should not happen again in the future.

The young Belgian manager's approach to life in Munich have been nothing short of awesome which is why I strongly believe that he'll succeed with the players at his disposal. There's still a lot to play for this season and if Bayern Munich can continue to improve from what we've seen far this season, I don't think there's anything that's gonna stop them from winning a major trophy at the end of the season

Like last season Munich failed because Tuchel was unable to rotate players perfectly and now they have a new coach who is able to bring Munich much more consistently. On the one hand, something like this is common because every season there will always be an increase in the team or even a decrease in performance in the top teams.

You are right, Bayern Munich team were unfortunate last season not to have won the league because of their poor form but the number of quality players in the team has already helped the team to get back on track in the league as they are already the league leaders since this season. During last season when Thomas Tuchel was the manager of Bayern Munich they were not performing well but it was not confirmed if the coach had issues bonding with the players but if that is the case, it means that Vincent Kompany would firstly get along with his players, get them to play more of team football, work on the performance of his team then they will be able to deliver a very good result.

Neuer has always been an important player for Bayern, but age does not spare anyone, this season he has already made some serious mistakes, because of which Bayern suffered defeats,
as it happened in the match against Aston Villa.
But I do not expect them to offer him a big contract, given his age it could be a contract for one year with the possibility of extension.
Yeb there was a few mistakes he made already this season and in a few games that was mostly cost them win of this matches.
The one year contract for sure will be an option for both Neuer and Bayern Munich but we will see whats coming.

It might be nice to honor him by giving him a longer contract, but he needs to be rested and perhaps appointed as one of the coaching staff for another teammate.
Maybe its possible that he will get a Goalkeeper Coach at Bayern Munich or also in the National Team.
But as a player the best time is over for him.

Bayer hasn't shown the same dominance as last year, but they are still in the leading group and haven't lost their chances to defend the title. You don't think Leipzig will become champions, do you? Probably Bayern? But Bayern has only scored 2 points in 3 serious games (Bayer, Aston Villa, Eintracht). If they have problems in games with strong opponents, then perhaps they will change places with Bayer.
I think Bayern Munich will win the championship this year. Bayer Leverkusen is less consistent than last year and they did not play well in the Bayern match. They followed the match from behind and did not show much presence, but they are still lucky to get a point. It is true that they are one of the favorite teams in the German league, but I think Bayern will be champions this year too.
Bayern Munich football team are capable to win the Bundesliga . Bayern Munich team is playing well . They played osum in last match and did 3 goals and also opponent team did 3 goals and match ended with no result and match was draw.Eintracht Frankfurt defended osum and that team became successful to do level score.

In my opinion, Bayern Munich should win this match but players of Bayern Munich could not give hundred percent and they competed  in this match and next match they will play against VfB Stuttgart team and Bayern Munich team is favorite for that match.
Let's see what happens because that is game and no one can estimate the result of match with hundred percent accuracy.

Neuer has always been an important player for Bayern, but age does not spare anyone, this season he has already made some serious mistakes, because of which Bayern suffered defeats, as it happened in the match against Aston Villa. I know that Bayern aims to keep Neuer in the team, I would not expect anything else, but I do not expect them to offer him a big contract, given his age it could be a contract for one year with the possibility of extension.
Manuel Neuer is a legend for Bayern Munich and also Germany, that's why he is retained and difficult to replace. Manuel Neuer only rests when he is injured or absent for other reasons, but he can always appear when he is fine. He is now 38 years old and will turn 39 in March 2025, so Bayern Munich will certainly need to consider his fitness before giving him a long-term contract. It might be nice to honor him by giving him a longer contract, but he needs to be rested and perhaps appointed as one of the coaching staff for another teammate.

At the beginning of this season it was already apparent that Leverkusen was not as strong as last season and indeed what Leverkusen experienced was like other teams that had made surprises in general so I am not surprised that they are not as strong as last season anymore now.
Xabi Alonso even though he did not make many changes to the Leverkusen squad this season but they looked struggling in the first few matches and that was a sign that they were not strong anymore and I am pessimistic about Leverkusen this season and I think they will not be able to defend their title.
As I said last season when Alonso managed to bring Leverkusen to break Munich dominance, I doubt Leverkusen this season. It doesn't mean I underestimate them, but big teams like Munich will definitely recover soon after the problems that caused the failure have been resolved. Like last season Munich failed because Tuchel was unable to rotate players perfectly and now they have a new coach who is able to bring Munich much more consistently. On the one hand, something like this is common because every season there will always be an increase in the team or even a decrease in performance in the top teams.
No one have underestimated Bayern despite that they were incapable of winning the league last season, because we know that they have the quality than any other club but due to Tuchel inability to manage the players properly deprived them from winning the league. It happened that during this period that Bayern was having this challenge was when Leverkusen became very strong and took advantage of Bayern weakness to win the league. Currently, Bayern Munich has a coach that can manage the players and bring out the best in them, which is a big challenge for Leverkusen who are not too focus on Bundesliga because of distractions from other competitions that they are playing. Leverkusen performance is not as good as last season, and it might be difficult for them to defend the title.

The Bundesliga is now getting tighter, we don't see what used to happen in previous seasons where Bayern Munich could comfortably dominate the Bundesliga, but this season looks a little different, this is something we really expected. I don't know, but I feel that Leverkusen's success in winning the Bundesliga last season was a big motivation for other teams that they could do the same, that's what ultimately made the competition tighter as we see now.
But this is just the beginning of the season which I hope that this will happen until the end of the season. Because one of the problems that is often faced by several teams is that they decline when entering the second half of the season which makes their standings even more distant.

Since Leverkusen won the league title last season, I expect this season to be more difficult than the previous season. Because Leverkusen winning the league last season, is going to be a big motivation for other clubs, Leverkusen came out of no place and won the league last season, they can do it as well. I don't believe the Bundesliga has any weak teams because if you underestimate any club, they can beat you. You are right that lots of teams' performance can drop at the end of the season, but Leverkusen motivated several teams last season. Let's see what happens at the end of the season.

If Real Madrid brings him to the team, I think it would be a big deal because Real Madrid still has problems in the center back area. Due to these problems, they can concede surprise goals and get some unexpected results in matches. If we think about Leverkusen, it will be a big loss, but I'm sure Xabi has thought about who to get instead of him. If Tah leaves the team, there will be problems in the center back area.

Jonathan Tah was close to joining Bayern Munich at the start of the season, he told the club that he wanted to play for Bayern Munich and did not want to continue playing for Xabi Alonso this season. However, the deal was not possible due to the large number of players recruited by Bayern Munich this season. If Tah leaves at the end of the season, it would have an impact on Xabi Alonso team performance, so he must bring in another center back to adapt at the right time. However, if rumors regarding Real Madrid interest in this player are real, the club may sell one of its defenders, possibly Alaba, who has been absent since the previous season.

If you went back 5 years and said that Eintracht and Bayer were "not easy opponents" for Bayern, you would simply be laughed at. And I agree that these are not easy opponents for the current Bayern, my point is that this is why the intrigue in the Bundesliga is more relevant than ever and Bayern is far from killing it (although at the beginning of the season it seemed otherwise).

True, Bayern has the overwhelming advantage there when you look at all duels win:draw:loss ratio. But some analysis for the time being is appropriate as if you look at the last two games that Bayern played against Leverkusen and Frankfurt, it is still the same as ever. Bayern brutally dominates the game, but they don't score the most important goals and this is something that they have been fighting with for quite a while now.

Bayern had 70% ball possession and 18:3 shots against Leverkusen. Just imagine how bad their conversion rate of chances to goals is and this is their biggest issue. Same thing against Frankfurt, 75% ball possession and 24:6 shots. It is always the same with Bayern in recent weeks.

In some way I find it surprising because they have Kane, Musiala and several other players who are known to be good strikers if they are in good shape, but it is not the case now. Frankfurt has 4 shots on targets and scores 3 goals. It's both a problem in the offense and the defense.

I don't know how valuable Kane is when he scores so many goals against average clubs in normally important games and doesn't score when it's so urgent. But Bayern paid 100 million for him and as far as I know, he receives a salary of 25 million euros. I think that value comes from how important a goal is, not whether you score 3 goals out of 9 goals in a single game.

Leverkusen will have a say this season in the Bundesliga. I love their pace in the game and they have been a bit out of luck in some games. But my feeling is that they will have their winning streak very soon.
