The two teams that qualified for the finals of the European League this season will play in the Champions League next season, which means that the competition for the other teams has become somewhat easier. Leverkusen only lost one match and because of this one miss they failed to win the Europa League title. But I will definitely appreciate their performance as their performance in last season's local league tournament and Europa League tournament was more than expected. I will definitely expect them to do well in the next season, especially in the Champions League, if they make history.
In the Champions League his performance will be different even though last season Leverkusen made an extraordinary breakthrough so that more people were amazed by him. However, in the Champions League, Leverkusen will meet more great teams, including Atalanta, who beat them in the Europa League final last season. So the level of performance from Leverkusen itself will definitely be very different from the previous season and even if it can be the same, I think it will only happen in the Bundesliga.

Maybe, if in the group phase Bayer Leverkusen is not together with the top teams, then maybe Bayer Leverkusen will have a chance to become group winners or maybe just runners up. But the point is, I personally believe Bayer Leverkusen is capable of advancing to the knockout phase of the last 16, the quarter-finals or maybe even qualifying for the semifinals. Because I personally am still quite confident about the quality and abilities of Xabi Alonso, even though there may be several key players who might leave, but I still believe Xabi Alonso will be able to make the Bayer Leverkusen squad good next season. Therefore, failure to win the Europa League trophy and at the same time failing to win the treble winner last season will of course allow Bayer Leverkusen to improve better next season.

It is not an easy thing to be able to compete in the Champions League, because in the Champions League the big teams compete, for Leverkusen of course they will compete with other big teams and maybe this will make it difficult for them, it is very unlikely that Leverkusen can immediately dominate the League Champions.
Xabi Alonso has led Leverkusen to become a team that is difficult to beat, whether in the domestic league or in the UEL, even though in the end they were defeated by Atalanta in the UEL final yesterday, of course that doesn't make them low, I think Atalanta and Leverkusen deserve to move up to a more difficult level again, namely playing in the UCL next season, even though their strength may not be completely ready to face this challenge, they will try their best to be able to compete in the UCL next season.

Some of the teams that qualify for the UEL next season, it seems that As Roma and Manchester United could be quite strong teams there, although there are many other strong teams that have the potential to qualify for the UEL final next season, but I believe that As Roma also seems to be successful next season. If De Rossi has the financial support to be able to get more players in their main squad, the tight competition will also make the match at UEL even better. Apart from that, Manchester United, who are retaining Ten Hag, should also be able to show their abilities at UEL later.

Even though Leverkusen failed to win the Europa League, their performance this season was truly extraordinary, the only defeat Leverkusen experienced this season was when they were defeated by Atalanta in the final match. Event after incident that occurred in the Europa League this season has presented many surprises, initially it was predicted that Liverpool or Leverkusen would come out as champions in this competition, but this prediction was immediately swept away due to the surprise presented by Atalanta.

Next season Leverkusen and Atalanta will appear in the Champions League, maybe other teams will present surprises in the Europa League in a different way. Hopefully the Europa League will still remain competitive even though many of the strong teams competing here will move up to the Champions League.

It is true that even though they failed to win the Europa League, their achievements should be appreciated because they have made new history by performing very well and becoming a team that has very good performance. because they are already a strong team and cannot be beaten, and with them failing to win the Europa League that was their first defeat, Atalanta was able to beat Leverkusen decisively. Of course, this is actually surprising in my opinion because I think Leverkusen is able to wipe out the team they will face. them, but Atalanta broke Leverkusen, making Leverkusen fail to win the Europa League.

It is not an easy thing to be able to compete in the Champions League, because in the Champions League the big teams compete, for Leverkusen of course they will compete with other big teams and maybe this will make it difficult for them, it is very unlikely that Leverkusen can immediately dominate the League Champions.

How worse could Sevilla get though? They finished the season 14th, a bit worse than that would mean relegating, I doubt they would, they are a good team. They have won so much, mainly Europa of course, but they did finish well in the league for so many years too, all of that means money. They also sold a lot of players for a lot of money back in the day as well, all of which still means even more money.

The problem with the team right now is that this team was built upon spending a lot of money for a while, and they have nothing left but this bunch. I think they need to reevaulate their transfer policy, they need to get some players that would be much better, not these players or players like these which didn't help much.
Any team can go through difficult times, remember how Arsenal were at the bottom of the table a few seasons ago, or Lyon in Ligue 1, but great teams always find a way out of any difficult situation. Sevilla is famous for its achievements in the Euro cups, and in La Liga they have always been in the European competition zone. I think it’s good that they were able to stay in La Liga, now they need to think about how to strengthen the team, this may require a lot of finances, it all depends on how ready they are for this.

Sevilla does well at this competition, but at the same time they have been consistently at "around" the top at la liga so far, and yet last few years hasn't been like that for them, hence why there are issues. You have to realize, being top six in la liga on/off for 20 years does make a team very good, so that would be understandable and nothing changes.
However, we need to remember also that for past two seasons they have done quite bad compared to the past. Could they recover? of course they can, they have done much worse before and recovered, so I think they will be a good team once again in the future and should not face issues, they just need a couple seasons and they are going to be back at top 10 easily and then top six and just win this competition again.
It won't be as easy as imagined if they basically have bad management, maybe because they have debt which also really has a bad impact on the team. Indeed, Sevilla's last two seasons have been very  bad, but eventhough they were in a bad situation in their first season, in reality Sevilla still managed to get the Europa League  trophy. Although, in their second season it was really difficult for Sevilla to get good results but indeed, on several occasions Sevilla seemed able to recover. However, they still find it difficult to be consistent so Sevilla get bad  results in La Liga and also in the Europa League. But of course,Sevilla is really expected to recover because Sevilla also has a great history in the Europa League.

Sevilla is probably the king of inconsistency in La Liga, lol.  Cheesy

Whatever, I have not seen any other team be as inconsistent as them recently in this La Liga competition. for some reason, Enrique Sanchez Flores lead the team very well while playing in the Europa League. But they are not good at all when they are playing in the La Liga competition. It feels like Enrique Sanchez came with different teams in two different competitions. They were actually under threat to get relegated in previous few seasons. In the end, they were able to avoid the relegation and actually stay in the La Liga competition. But I don’t think that is what was expected from them. Expected performance from them is probably to finish in at least in the top six positions so that they can play in the Europa League competition. I don’t know how long it is going to take them to recover. But things do not look very promising right now with Xavier García.

Making history in the champions league will be the peak of xabis career at this moment, in his case it will be very unique and considered irregular as compared to what has been the norm, this will be to the  fact that in the champions league it's hard to see a coach who is attempting the champions league for the first time and is able to probably smash through all the experienced teams in the champions league to the point of probably winning the trophy, most times the usual case has been that which they will come to the champions league and use their first attempt to gather experience.

Xabi is a very determined coach and he has a very high propensity to getting the team to break norms and barriers just like he has shown to be in the last season especially in their domestic league and even in the Europa where he was denied of the trophy because he lost a very vaital and important game amongst all of the games he has been playing in the Europa last season. I believe if such opportunity comes to Leverkusen again they will do better, in this new season, Leverkusen is not going to play in the Europa except they get to be relegated back to the Europa els they will have to make sure to top four in their domestic league or win the champions league to be able to get back to the champions league in the following season.

It was unfortunately that Leverkusen did not win Europa finals but that did not stop them from having a remarkable season. They were much successful last season than any other season because they won Bundesliga unbeaten. No one expected Atalanta to be the winner of last season Europa because they were underestimated.

I believe that next season Atalanta will try their best in Champions league and same with Leverkusen but I don't know if they can go far, because champions league is not the same with Europa, and in the previous seasons, Europa champions don't go far in UCL.
We know that the level of competition in the Champions League is not easy even though Atalanta and Leverkusen hold the status of European League finalists. However, both teams have good self confidence, because they had achievements last season. This is different from other Champions League contestants, who managed to get tickets but did not win any domestic trophies. I think the strength of Atalanta and Leverkusen should be taken into account in the Champions League next season, they could be a surprise team, especially as their manager is still at the club. The squad depth of the two teams has not changed much, I think there has actually been an increase, this will be a good sign for them.

The most realistic target that Atalanta or Leverkusen can set is to reach the quarter-finals or semifinals, because I doubt they or any of them can reach the final. The Champions League will actually never be easy for anyone, mentality and experience determine everything there. Apart from all that, the presence of these two teams in the Champions League is an attraction in itself, considering that they had an impressive season last season. Everyone is curious about their performance next season, especially when they play in the Champions League.

The European League is the second caste after the Champions League, so here it is only inhabited by clubs which can be said to be capable clubs which are below the clubs in the Champions League. I don't mean to say they aren't better, that's not my point. but in fact we see based on their ranking in the domestic standings that they have to go to the Europa League. And also when a club fails in the Champions League group stage, others will go to the European League.

However, what is interesting is that when a club is in the Champions League and has to go to the European League, it cannot easily dominate and become champions. They even had to lose when they faced a club that was actually no more favored than them. This season, one example is Liverpool. They are the favorites and in fact they are the biggest favorites to become champions. However, they failed when they faced Atalanta and were eliminated from the European League.

I think Leverkusen will be able to compete well like last season, unless they have quite serious problems that could make them change, such as changing their coach or something else. with their previous performance it was already good because they had surprised many football fans with their strong performance so they could become a really strong team and make new history even though it was in the Bundesliga, even though they lost at the end of the match it was not a bad achievement, because with them Even if you can get to that point, that's already good enough in my opinion.

Even though I don't think Leverkusen will experience a decline in performance, there is a possibility that it could happen because no one knows what the future will be like, but I hope Leverkusen can remain consistent with its performance and even be better than before so that it can make new history again in this league. .

What happened to Sevilla was something they didn't want at all, but it seems like they are fighting with the situation so that they can't say much about this season and they have to taste the bitter thing of performing badly and in La Liga itself they can't do it at all. compete with other teams.

They have to resolve their internal problems immediately, you are right, they have to consider their transfer policy more, because what they are experiencing this season is something that is not at all good for them. If they don't change very quickly, then I won't be surprised when they end up being relegated in La Liga for next season.

Yes, they are actually a good team, as proven by their achievements in the European League, becoming champions several times. It is very unfortunate when you see a team that has potential like them having to face a difficult situation that makes them unable to compete.

Bayern Leverkusen and Atalanta will participants in Champion League next season and both team will make surprise with their perform after success breaking out any record in Europe League.
Bayern Leverkusen success become the Europe League have many unbeaten matches before defeating by Atalanta in the final, in other side Atalanta as not favorite team success eliminating top team from Liverpool until Bayern Leverkusen for winning their first Europe League trophy.

I think next season have any surprise team will make us shock with their performance in Europe League, but difficult to see the unbeaten matches record will break for next season after Bayern Leverkusen success keep unbeaten reached until 12 matches since phase round until semifinal match.

Never has Leverkusen recorded the kind of success they recorded in the bundesliga as they did last season, for them it's a historic one that spammed through Germany and Europe and even for big teams, if they happen to get such record in a season, they are most definitely going to see it in same light because everyone will agree with me that staying unbeaten alone is a record on its own, then winning the trophy is another record, it will be very okay to say they maintained two records in the bundesliga so it's a really huge success and should be seen as such.

Europa turned out to be a misfortune for them but they still and the best record in the Europa last season and Atlanta had the Europa victory for them as a turning point, they after the Europa finals victory, became more tough than they had been and they even played an improved game because their confidence was on a different level at the moment since they were now winners and champions of the Europa, their domestic league games became such that they were playing with was, it would have been a very interesting one if they were going to come defend the trophy in the Europa but fortunately for them, they are elevated to. Much bigger and top league let's hope for the best from them in the champions league and this applies to Leverkusen aswell because they too are deserving of an accolade and recognition due to their performance last season.

Last season Sevilla managed to extend their positive trend in the European league by winning the European League trophy, but unfortunately this season they failed to show a good performance in the Champions League and La Liga, Sevilla failure in the Champions League of course has a huge impact on their finances which are currently in a bad condition, we know that so far every team that plays in the Champions League will get compensation money from UEFA so that at least helping the club to continue to be able to stabilize its finances, while Sevilla, which is indeed in a difficult condition, of course hopes that many can go far in the Champions League this season but this does not materialize at all.

Reportedly currently the finances owned by Sevilla are very bad so indeed they coach are required to be able to optimize the old squad they currently have, what you say is indeed true, it seems that Sevilla will not be too active in the summer transfer market due to their poor finances, but to be honest I hope that Sevilla can rise soon and can return to play in the Europa League later as a competition that they dominate so far.

Leversekun have lose their full hope that they have right from the start of this season; after did all their best and put so much of their efforts and remain unbeaten in the Bundesliga league, they refuse to use that their efforts in Europe league. Because all my expectations is since they where attacking by Atlanta in the Bundesliga league the Europa will be there fevor it was not happen.

The next season champion league will be very tough due how the seeing many of clubs are prepared for the champions; possible Atlanta will try their best next but not mean that they can able to win the champion league next season, because even the way they where perform in Europa league there performance was not strong that I can underrate them.

Indeed we cannot rule out Leverkusen's performance last season because after all it was a very brilliant performance shown by Leverkusen but in the end it is clear that anything is possible especially with Leverkusen's hype last season which was very crazy there is no guarantee that they get the same mentality.
It would be great if they still show the same performance as that but when they get a different situation and do not get a good performance then we must also be prepared for that.

This season is going to be more interesting but also more challenging especially for Leverkusen where apart from that they are required to work more than before because after all with the situation they face where the schedule is getting tougher and the demands of the club are increasing then when they are unable to produce good results then this could backfire on Leverkusen themselves in the end.

I think Leverkusen will be able to compete well like last season, unless they have quite serious problems that could make them change, such as changing their coach or something else. with their previous performance it was already good because they had surprised many football fans with their strong performance so they could become a really strong team and make new history even though it was in the Bundesliga, even though they lost at the end of the match it was not a bad achievement, because with them Even if you can get to that point, that's already good enough in my opinion.

Leverkusen had a great Europa League run last year. Though underdogs, they fought well. Despite losing, reaching the final is a big achievement. And dont forget that unbeaten streak in the Bundesliga - thats not easy to pull off.

Atalanta won everything? Quite shocking. We watch the game for that, right? Exciting because of its unpredictability.

Next season, both are Champions League competitors. The best are in the big leagues. I hope they do well, I really do. Champions League is faster, harder, more intense. It will be seen if they can maintain Europa League magic.

It is very unfortunate that Leverkusen failed to maintain an unbeaten record in all competitions this season, Atlanta became the only team in Europe that managed to break Leverkusen unbeaten record this season, the defeat to Atlanta is of course very painful not only because it failed to maintain their record but the defeat also thwarted Leverkusen plan to win the treble winner this season, Leverkusen has shown performance and also a very good mentality Impressive throughout this season, but after the defeat it seems that the mentality possessed by Leverkusen in the final match is not as big as in ordinary matches, besides that we can also see how the mentality of the leverkusen players decreases in the dfb final match, where Leverkusen should have been able to win easily against the Bundesliga 2 team at that time, but in fact they were very difficult and only won narrowly.

The two teams will probably meet again in the Champions League next season, so it could be an opportunity for Leverkusen to avenge the defeat they got this season to Atlanta, I personally also hope that we will not only see surprises from both teams in the Champions League next season, but also hope that next season in Europa League will also bring back many surprises like what happened this season.

Even though that was the only defeat that Leverkusen got, it was actually a slightly embarrassing defeat when the Leverkusen players were clearly not ready to face Atalanta in the final round and this decreased self confidence caused Leverkusen difficulty in scoring.
I'm not saying Leverkusen is bad in the European league but defeat without any reply is a sign that Xabi team still has weaknesses in terms of the mentality of the players, even though they are very well prepared in the domestic league, but in the prestigious league the Leverkusen players still have a low mentality.
So from the start of the match I began to doubt that Leverkusen could win because looking at the playing style of the two teams and their very serious faces, it was clear that Atalanta was better prepared to face Leverkusen.

There is a possibility that in the future Atalanta or Leverkusen will not be able to compete in the group stage, I am very sure that these two teams will only persist consistently to be eliminated from the European league again and try to get a title in the European league because if for example Atalanta is able to qualify, they will look good in the UCL and Leverkusen is not able to compete in the UCL, this team has the opportunity to win the European league title when the opponent they will face is not a strong team.
But if later these two teams can continue to qualify for the higher rounds, Roma will be one of the candidates to hold the European league title.
