Leverkusen made history in both Bundesliga with a perfectly complete unbeaten season but their season is not perfect by this defeat in Europa League final. No three titles, no perfect unbeaten season in all competitions when they only have 2 last matches to get it.

Anyway the final ended, the unbeaten streak was broken, a title was lost but they will still have one last match, one more final match to play and get one more title. It's interesting to guess how Xabi Alonso and his players will return next season and will they make another shock next season in Champions League.

A journey for Bayer Leverkussen, no opposition can stop them this season but next season might be difficult for them. There's always this spectacular changes when it comes to Bayer Leverkusen, they're currently in their prime and winning is never consider to be exceptional. This season is different for Leverkusen, rising against all odds and thrashing tough opponents this season. Bayer Leverkusen were absolutely nothing with Xabi Alonso. They struggle to win league matches but everything turn out to not to play out smoothly for them.

Xabi Alonso performance with Leverkusen was quite perfect because Xabi succeeded in making Leverkusen quite strong this season. He managed to bring two trophies to Leverkusen and now he is a coach who is much talked about and has attracted big European teams to him. However, we have seen that he is more comfortable with Leverkusen and Xabi also has full support from all groups, both fans and the Leverkusen board. Failure in the European league is certainly very disappointing but it is not a big problem because Xabi success in bringing Leverkusen to become champions in the Bundesliga is more than enough if he succeeds in bringing about changes in his performance.

In the next season, Xabi Alonso will definitely face the biggest challenge again because next season Leverkusen will play in the Champions League where the competition will be even fiercer. And also in the Bundesliga where Bayern Munich will try hard to win trophy again, of course next season will be more interesting than this season. We'll see whether Xabi Alonso will recruit well-known players with the best quality to help him bring Leverkusen to compete in the Champions League.

Leverkusen's defeat in the European League final, in my opinion, was very painful, but I was surprised why Alonso could miss Atalanta, to be honest, if we compare it with Leverkusen, Atalanta doesn't have a perfect record, but this is the magic of football, no team is truly perfect, everyone will lose at some point, even so, I really appreciate Alonso because he managed to make Leverkusen what it is now, I still haven't heard of the player Alonso is targeting for next season, if we compare it with Another team, Leverkusen still doesn't have a very prominent striker.

Of course, Xabi Alonso has made a big contribution to Leverusen, because he has succeeded in making Leverkusen better this season and even very well by becoming a very different team because it underwent drastic changes which surprised many football fans. Even though they lost to Atalanta, of course it was detrimental to them, but I think the achievements of Leverkusen managed by Xabi Alonso are a very good achievement and should be appreciated. I think it surprised a lot of people with their failure against Atalanta because Atalanta was the first team to beat Leverkusen this season. I myself was surprised that Atalanta was able to beat Leverkusen.

With next season I think Xabi Alonso will do his best for his team. It is true that defending the title will be difficult because the competition will definitely get tougher in the new season. Also, with Leverkusen being a very good team at the moment, I think they will maintain it and become an even bigger team, but it will be a difficult journey for them.

Leverkusen has really performed extraordinary this season. Even though it was very unfortunate they had to lose to Atalanta. Even though that one match would make them the only team in history with a perfect record throughout the season! It is a record that is impossible to repeat even for Leverkusen themselves. Maybe this will be one of the most memorable seasons.

Congratulations to Xabi Alonso and all the players who succeeded in winning the first Bundesliga trophy in the club's history, as well as this being the first double winner for Leverkusen, CMIIW.

I do not think that it would be that simple, just because he is still the manager doesn't mean that they are going to win the title again or even be all that great. I think it's quite obvious that Bayern didn't learn from their mistakes and hiring Kompany as manager, a person who did not do all that well at premier league, and never managed a big club ever before, managing Bayern will not end with a good result, it is going to still be a problem for them.

I think it is clear that Xabi and Leverkusen still has a chance, and we may see them do fine eventually. We should consider the possibility of Leverkusen only being able to do fine, if Bayern does badly because I do not expect Leverkusen to have a similar season to this season.

Leverkusen's players were confident.   Also the players were hard working. And Xabi Alonso was the mastermind behind Leverkusen's confidence building.

Xabi Alonso's match strategy was very good. Xabi Alonso used to make match strategy considering the strength of the opponent. This is why the Leverkusen team performed well in both matches against Bayern Munich.   There are no star players in the Leverkusen team. Still every player gave full effort from his position to do well.   All this is possible because of Xabi Alonso. He has taken a mediocre team to extraordinary heights, which is why Xabi Alonso is the best coach in Europe this year

Bundesliga is not consider easy at the end of other clubs. They've simply made good records and aiming for greater winning. Bayer Leverkusen have always been the very top club to make accommodations of excellent players. Players worked hard because they're determined for what's coming their path, it's been really a tough period but winning is compulsory for such a club. Bayer Leverkusen was considered the best competitive club this season. Leverkusen headcoach, Xabi Alonso have always been in the original picture when we're talking about determine minds and consistency.

Next season, the Bundesliga will welcome two new teams from the Bundesliga 2, St. Pauli and Holstein Kiel. St. Pauli will return to the top flight after a 13-year absence. Their fans definitely will be eager and anticipating their comeback, hoping that the team can establish themselves and avoid a quick relegation. For Holstein Kiel, their promotion is historic, marking their first-ever appearance in the Bundesliga. However, their main goal will be survival, which will require strengthening their squad to compete with the already established teams in the top league.

 The playoff stage saw Bochum, who finished 16th in the Bundesliga, face off against Fortuna Düsseldorf. The first leg took place at Bochum's home ground, giving them an opportunity to the host advantage. Also, it was not an easy task, as Fortuna Düsseldorf did their best to be very impressive in the Bundesliga 2 and this play off game this season. Bochum needed to be extra cautious of Fortuna's top scorer, Christos Tzolis, who had been in top form, including a hat-trick in their recent victory over Magdeburg.

 Bochum's home advantage was not really important because they lost wholly in the first leg and they had in mind that they'll need to be at their best to outdo a strong and confident Düsseldorf side in the second leg. The outcome of this playoff will determine who earns a spot in the Bundesliga, making it a high-stakes encounter for both teams. In the second leg game, yes suffering a defeat ahead, they put their best to equalizing and even winning the game on penalties. The result of the encounter clearly proves the class and level difference of both teams.

Yes, I just checked the regulations, the total number of teams is 168 from 54 UEFA associations... we can say that literally everyone is participating   
As I understand it, Heidenheim may face Chelsea/Betis/Fiorentina/Lens as opponents in the playoffs, It seems that if the draw is unsuccessful for them, they will not go beyond this stage. But it’s probably better to play with Chelsea right away (two games!) than to then play in the group stage with teams whose names you wouldn’t recognize if not for this tournament.

Playoffs are just like qualifiers that get you into the real tournament, usually there are clubs from Europe lower leagues that usually just get playoff qualification spots and if they progress from there they get included into the competition, this isn’t only applicable to the conference league alone but also happens in the champions league and the Europa league. The two competitions had their own scrapped because there is a lower competition which is the conference league which a club falls down to if they fail to qualify for the others.

Every player must work hard, it is the responsibility of every player in a football team. However, I can appreciate Leverkusen players, they could understand well the tactics or strategy implemented by Xabi Alonso. They also want to force themselves to play in a higher level, so they can be more competitive. Besides Xavi has a smart idea for the team, the spirit among the players also has a big role to make them be a stronger team in this season. Anyway, I can admit that Xabi got a great achievement with Leverkusen in this season.
