That's football, coach Xabi Alonso must learn from failures. It hurts, but they need to use this pain positively. This season has surpassed all expectations and what Leverkusen has achieved as a club is amazing. Xabi Alonso's team needs to return quickly because they have an important tournament season ahead.

Leverkusen has completed a historic overthrow. As for Leipzig and Dortmund also becoming strong, Bayern Munich may soon lose its position as Germany's No. 1 team, If they keep making mistakes. Bayern Munich will have to immediately change from the new 2024 - 2025 season, with a new coach and a specific force replacement plan that must be thoroughly implemented. If it can be done, perhaps the time for Bayern Munich to regain their original position will not be too long.

I do not think that in five years he is going to start being bad. Look at Lewandowski, dude is 35-36 and still at Barcelona, sure he is not as good as when he was at Bayern obviously, but he is not playing that badly neither, plus if he stayed at Bayern, maybe he could have been better too, maybe he just doesn't fit with Barcelona. Or look at Benzema, who won the Ballon D'or when he was 35 years old.

Back in the day players did retire by that age, but these days between more improved training, and better understanding of how much nutrition impacts the body, players can play until 40 years old. I am sure that in 20-30 years, we are going to see the first ever player to play until they are 50 years old at a good level as well.

Not sure yet the success unbeaten achievement by Bayern Leverkusen when winning Bundesliga season 2023/24 has opportunity break by the other Bundesliga teams for next season. Bayern Munich as favorite team become the winner seems difficult keep defend unbeaten record such as did by Bayern Leverkusen not unbeaten all domestic leagues matches from Bundesliga until DFB Pokal Cup.

One bad achievement from Bayern Leverkusen this season after defeating by Atalanta in the Europe League final match, I think make difference the most perfect season for Leverkusen if can win Europe League and become the only one top European teams without loss all competition for one season.

Xabi Alonso ready did a perfect job for Bayern Leverkusen last season irrespective of the fact that they didn't win the Europa league title and no matter how strong a team is, final is not always easy at all just like everyone was anticipating Manchester City to win Manchester united in the F.A cup finals last season but they lost woefully so that a final goes, it always creates tension among the two teams so i commend Alonso's pattern of coaching and i have this strong feelings that he will continue on such exceptional performance next season even if he may not end it unbeaten as he did in the bundesliga last season.

Leverkusen are a very good and strong squad, but even with that, I’m not sure if they can be able to do the same thing they did last season in the Bundesliga, which is the unbeaten record. They can take the trophy, but you see, that unbeaten record is what I doubt because many clubs will come stronger and even do better than what people expected.

Although I know that Bayern Leverkusen are currently one of the best clubs in the Bundesliga apart from Bayern Munich, I can’t still compare Bayern Leverkusen to Bayern Munich just because Bayern Munich experienced a bad performance for one season. They may come back stronger next season, and next season, the Bundesliga will be so competitive.

I have great respect from Xavi Alonso. The respect is not because he was able to win the Bundesliga title and run and unbeating race. The respect is because he had an opportunity to go to bigger clubs and earn more money but instead he chose to remain with Bayer Leverkusen for one more season. If I were in his shoes knowing too well that nobody can predict next season, I would have used the opportunity to go and try my prowess in another club. But he instead decided to stay back and show that he can do it not only once, if he have left some people would say that it is luck.

I am so much anticipating next season, it is not because I want Xavi Alonso to keep his on beating record. But I simply want him to win again the German Bundesliga and see how he can contest in the UEFA Champions League. It is not easy to keep an unbeating record for two good seasons. Keeping it for one season is so difficult, let alone for two.

Usually before the new Bundesliga season starts, many people predict that Bayern Munich will be able to defend the title, but this is different now, because we are still speculating about who will be the champions after Leverkusen's success this season, who have performed very well in the Bundesliga. , and not only Leverkusen but Stuttgart also did the same thing.
This is something interesting for me, because we no longer say the same team will be champion, because there are several choices and although Bayern Munich is also one of them. But we can talk more broadly now because we expect very tight competition and that hope has come true after Leverkusen's success this season.
In my opinion, Borussia Dortmund must also be motivated, because they are usually a team that has been able to provide competition to Bayern Munich for many years, but they are not the team that can break Bayern Munich's dominance so far. I hope they are motivated and can be more serious in targeting achievements.

After the near perfect campaign of Bayer Leverkusen in the just concluded season, the club have attracted global attention to themselves and the expectations of the club fans and world football fans at large I think have significantly improved ahead of next season. For Bayer Leverkusen manager, he'll have to replicate the same performances and results he had with his team last season in the upcoming season before they can be considered as one of the strongest teams in the world. The club's defeat in hands of Atalanta in the UEFA Europa League final is a testament that they're very beatable and that's where Bayer Leverkusen's problem I think emanates from because a lot of clubs who'll face them next season will want to do what Atalanta did that earned them a win. Let's keep our fingers crossed and see how next season will pan out for Xabi Alonso and his Bayer Leverkusen team

teams like stuttgart aim to remain in the league every season, they don't invest in a strong squad capable of fighting to occupy high positions such as the top 4 and get into the European champions league, what happened last season was an accident in which allowed Stuttgart to stay in second place, maybe I'm exaggerating when I use the word accident, maybe I should use the word luck. But with this luck, Stuttugart are seeing a great opportunity to make money by selling players

because they know they won't get far in the European Champions League, and they don't have the financial resources to build a squad capable of competing well in the European Champions League and they also know that they won't have the same luck as they had last season in the Bundesliga, Therefore, they will choose to sell the players that give them a lot of profit and this season they return to play to fight to stay in the Bundesliga, this is the fate of teams that do not have managers with great ambitions of winning titles and think more about their pockets.

Players who are in the old category will usually not be played for ninety minutes or in full in every match, because as you said, their performance may no longer be the same as when they were young. However, every team coach can definitely use players like that in quite crucial conditions, such as when the main player is injured in a similar position so that there can be an immediate replacement and still ensure the team doesn't become weak because of this. Because older players can sometimes be helpers when the main players are unable to play full time.

Stuttgart managed to surprise us this season because they managed to qualify for the Champions League next season, Stuttgart is not a strong team so far in the Bundesliga even last season they had to fight hard enough to be able to get out of the relegation zone, Stuttgart was able to compete with Dortmund, Munich, and also Leipzig to be in the second position this season and of course their good performance this season cannot be separated from their two mainstay players,  Guirassy and Ito are two important pillars that are able to make Stuttgart to end the season in the Bundesliga second position this season, Guirassy ability to score goals certainly makes their attacking line dangerous this season and even in the 30 games he has played this season, Guirassy has been able to score 30 goals and that means 1 goal in 1 match.

Losing Guirassy and Ito will of course make Stuttgart unstable and I think it will make their performance drop drastically next season, just like you, I also think that Stuttgart should forget their hopes of being able to compete in the Champions League next season, because indeed their current squad no longer has enough depth to compete with big teams,  I think what Stuttgart are doing at the moment is stupid because they sold two of their great players to two of their biggest rivals in the Bundesliga.

As a giant club in the German League, Bayern Munich will not allow Leverkusen or any other team to prevent them from reclaiming the trophy next season. even though currently Bayern is led by Kompany, who in fact does not have an impressive record and is still very young, this has not dampened the club's desire and enthusiasm to win back the Bundesliga trophy which was captured by Leverkusen in the 2023/24 season. as you said, Bayern Munich is the most successful team in the Bundesliga so far. their dominance has just been broken by Leverkusen, there are times when Bayern Munich is unable to maintain its dominance in the Bundesliga and sooner or later there will be a team that breaks its dominance. It has been proven that Leverkusen was able to do it last season. for the following seasons, there is no reason for Bayern not to reclaim its glory. Indeed, Kompany's arrival at the Allianz Arena has caused many football fans, it's natural because this young coach has yet to prove anything with the record of achievements he has achieved.

However, I think Munich knows very well why they appointed this Belgian coach. We don't know what Munich is planning, it could be that Vincent Kompany is only a temporary option before the club management finds a truly ideal coach for Bayern Munich. or, we don't know Kompany's proposals for Bayern Munich's future vision and mission. after all, Bayern Munich can be said to be a team that has quite established player resources. If Kompany is able to utilize it with the system he implements, Bayern will still be a team that is difficult for its opponents to beat in the Bundesliga, even though last season Leverkusen was able to do so.
Next season, we won't know until these teams play match after match. apart from that, several other teams cannot be underestimated either. perhaps, RB Leipzig and Borusia Dortmund will perform much better than the previous season. so, Leverkusen is not the only candidate in the Bundesliga next season.

Of course, Xabi Alonso still can't believe the defeat in the European league, even though it could be a sweet track record if they can still win the title and continue their unbeaten trend. But fate said otherwise and there Atalanta was able to become the first team to beat Leverkusen.

However, what Leverkusen achieved last season is very difficult for other clubs to beat and when they return to the Bundesliga they must refocus on doing the same thing over and over again if that is still possible. We know that Bayern Munich will really consider Leverkusen as their main rival at this time and they have to break last season's bad result of never winning against Leverkusen. That is one of the conditions if Bayern Munich can move freely to reclaim its seasonal title.

Xabi Alonso can still maintain his unbeaten record in the Bundesliga, but with the Champions League it will be very difficult, especially as we know that the Champions League is where big teams compete. In my opinion, it is unlikely that Leverkusen can maintain its unbeaten record in the Champions League. maybe they can still maintain their unbeaten record in the Bundesliga, but with the Champions League it is very difficult. I think their previous achievements are already very good, with them being able to compete in the Champions League it proves that they have good performance and are worthy of competing with other big teams, but of course there will be lots of surprises for Leverkusen from other big teams that experienced. In my opinion Leverkusen just need to play well, with them not dominating the Champions that is normal but if they can maintain their unbeaten record in the Champions League of course it will be a big surprise.

Apart from that, Leverkusen is still a tough challenger for Bayern Munich. because they already have a suitable and good coach so they can dominate the Bundesliga and break the dominance of Bayern Munich. We don't know next season whether Bayern Munich will dominate again or whether Leverkusen can still handle it, but what is certain is that Leverkusen will not let other teams dominate the Bundesliga because Leverkusen will definitely maintain its performance and dominate the Bundesliga again.

Other Bundesliga teams will definitely improve so that it will create fiercer competition for Bayern Leverkusen, especially Bayern Muncih, of course to maintain that record is very difficult and I even say it will not be possible, not only for Bayern Leverkusen but for other teams too. It is quite difficult to get this unbeatable record.

Xabi Alonso has proven that since the beginning of his arrival he has built Bayern Leverkusen, so I think there is nothing to doubt, Bayern Leverkusen's performance continues to move in a positive direction and this is also followed by progress so I am quite optimistic that it will continue.

No team cares about the record, every team wants to win the title and the record is only what the fans want.
Defending the Bundesliga title will of course be the team's priority and they also need to increase the strength of the team because Bayern Leverkusen will compete on the Champions League stage so they need much stronger strength to be able to compete with other top European teams in the Champion League.

If Bayern Leverkusen seizes the opportunity and defeats Atalanta in the Europa League, Xabi Alonso will have a fantastic season since he will have gone the entire season without losing a single match in the competition. But Atalanta showed them that they are better than them in the competition. Let's see how Leverkusen will compete next season or if they can repeat what they did last season, but I know that it will be very difficult for them to win the Bundesliga title next season because Dortmund and Bayern Munich i think they will be the favourites to win the trophy because last season i think they are just focusing on the champions league because Reus try is best to get UCL with dortmund  before he leave the club,But he fails to do so when they reach the final stage, which would allow Ruse to achieve his goal, and I believe this is why Dortmund isn't focused on the league. to Bayern Munich's Harry Kane has not won a title at Tottenham, so they have focused more on the UCL to try to win the title for Kane, but they have failed. I am confident that Munich and Dortmund will dominate the league next season.

Let's wait till next season before we start arguing on the team that will be champions of Germany next season but from the last performance of the teams last season, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen needs to be careful next season if they want to be the only rivals challenging for the league because the Stuttgart team also looks power from their performance last season. Bayern Munich performance was having a bad season last season but they have got a new manager at the end of last season so they will have no other options but to revive the team and get to be back to being the champions again.

For the Leverkusen team, they are going to be more vigilant because they will need to defend their title and be in the champions league next season they will need to show more good form both on the league matches if they want to defend their title and also be ready to play in the champions league after a long time. They will do everything possible to stay on top of the league while they also hope to go far in the champions league.

Stuttgart performed well last season. And I was surprised by Stuttgart's consistent performance. Stuttgart took the second place in the table behind Bayern Munich. and qualified for the Champions League. The team finished 16th in the table in the 2022–23 season. The team was very lucky to avoid the relegation zone. We never imagined that this team would make such a grand comeback in the 2023-24 season.

However, if Serhou Guirassy leaves the squad, the negative impact will definitely be seen in Stuttgart's performance next season. Because Serhou Guirassy was Stuttgart's main scorer. Scored 28 goals and two assists in the Bundesliga last season. 28-year-old Serhou Guirassy performed well throughout the season. at the same time Hiroki Ito is a very talented defender. Finding replacements for these two players will be very difficult for Stuttgart.

An unbeaten record is something that cannot be easily reproduced just like that a d expecting such from Bayern Leverkusen almost just immediately doesn't look or feel realistic enough for me just immediately,  they may be able to still reproduce a very good results again but I'm not sure about them getting to stay unbeaten successfully again in the next season because they have got more attention on them more than they did last season and they now even have more competitive league to play in this season.

I know that Xabi is still in his good for but I prefer to wait to see their performance in the new season than making projections that may end up not turning out in my expectations, somehow they may not start on a very perfect note in that they may need a little time to still know around how the new season is going to be like and the preparedness of other teams coming to the league together at once too, very importantly now will be their ability to maintain a good position both in the champions league and the bundesliga this season and not to keep an unbeaten record.

Maintaining and defending the title they one last season should also be of top priority for Bayern Leverkusen because I believe even Xabi knows by now that they have a very little and slim chance of replicating that which they were able to get last season in this season so the focus now should be redirected to getting results and not making record as that may not really get them enough as they would have been able to achieve this season.

I fully agree that Stuttgart will be feeling the lose of that 2 players , both Guirassy and Ito was top at there positions.
But i guess that the coach and the Stuttgart management already have some eyes on some players to replace them in some way.
How they will be doing now without them in the Champions League is hard to say.
Guirassy i would say will be fit fully into Dortmund in my opinion.
