Keeping up with this great performance is what is much needed from Bayern Leverkusen next season. They have to prove to the world that they are who they truly portray that they are when it comes to consistency and been on the top notch of the Bundesliga season. They’ve showed it to the world once, but they need to again to keep their club flying high in the presence of other ones. With Xabi Alonso still managing them the next season, a much more wonderful season is what everyone expects for them as they’re preparing to also play in the champions league next season which the demands from any club participating there is very high. If they can once again as they did last season, they can win the hearts of many in football.

Bayer Leverkusen lost against Atalanta is one important thing for them as a team, especially for Xabi Alonso as a manager. I believe this could give Bayer Leverkusen a lesson, we know that there is no perfection in any team. So, maybe from this loss Bayer Leverkusen will learn a lot, and ready to give their all abilities for the next season, this is what i am talking about before, so we need to see surprise from Leverkusen and this will be a big surprise for everyone.

I think Bayer Leverkusen will play with its key players for another year because Xabi remains in the team. Many of them are aware that they owe their success today to Xabi. Of course, Real Madrid and Leverkusen cannot be compared. Real Madrid is a team that is famous for its trophies and where every young player in the world dreams of playing there one day. Leverkusen shined this year. We'll see what next year will bring.

Xabi Alonso success make Bayern Leverkusen become most stronger team with invisible record in this season by winning Bundesliga and DFB Pokal Cup although got failure for winning UEFA Europe League. Interested waiting for will any other team for Europe League next season appearance defend the unbeaten record such as Leverkusen only loss in the final match?

Next season the finalist teams of UEFA Europe League will participants in Champion League, actually give an advantage for the Europe League participants teams such as Roma, Manchester United and other teams will not face top teams in group phase. But get difference on 32 round will face he relegated teams from Champion League and warning for top Europe League team must secure the first position place if get automatic qualify to 16 round.

The European League is the only league that Xabi Alonso cannot conquer this season, although they this season are very close to winning the treble winner but they have to feel the failure from a team that is indeed not favored from the beginning to be able to win the European League championship trophy, this season Europa League final is of course a surprise where the favorite team actually has to be thwarted by the underdog team and that kind of thing is very interesting football So far when there is indeed no exact result that we can predict before the match is over, Leverkusen came home with disappointing results in the Europa League but still they deserve to be appreciated as the best team that exists this season.

Bayern Leverkusen has shown us the meaning of a struggle, hard work and also unyielding that makes them able to become the best team this season, Alonso will of course have a very tough job next season, apart from has being able to maintain their game performance, Alonso must also be able to convince his players to stay in so that way they will have a squad that may be reliable to compete in the Champions League next season.

Any club that is playing in the Champions League knows the task ahead of them  and they know that it is always a difficult one since there are big and strong clubs in the competition. Any club that is not strong will not survive the group stage and that is where Xabi Alonso needs to make sure that he survives. That alone will bring more respect to the club.

It is from the knock out stage that matches becomes more difficult because experience will also play its own role. Xabi Alonso still ha e his men with him and he needs an additional player to strengthen the team so that injury or any setback from the players will not be a problem to him. He also needs to improve his game tactics, because any club that will be playing with Leverkusen will want to make sure that they win them to let them know that, it's champions league.

It can indeed be one of the good options because at least with the players who are still awake in the squad, they can still display solid cooperation only on the other hand this can also have a slightly worse impact when several clubs start moving to get new schemes but Leverkusen still remains the same player because after all Leverkusen's task this season is much more difficult than last season where for now they have to maintain performance, competition and of course the trophy and this is clearly a difficult condition to do especially this season it could be Bayern changing back to the previous mode even though Kompany is currently still considered doubtful by some.

Hopefully Xabi does not lose his magic and Leverkusen's performance remains the same as before so that the competition for the Bundesliga trophy is still maintained like this season next season.

But indeed, of course it will be a difficult choice because playing with an elite team will certainly make players succeed in improving their quality. After all, if they survive too, at least there is no guarantee that they will be able to repeat the same success as last season. Therefore, if they choose to stay then of course, this is based on loyalty and solidarity because if they don't have that basis, then of course they will easily accept offers from elite teams. But indeed,  at least if they survive and if they can still succeed next season, then of course their quality and value will continue to increase. Because of course, Xabi Alonso will still make greater efforts and that is clear, because next season they will also play in the Champions League.

Yes, it is true that Xabi Alonso's task is increasingly difficult because they will play at a tougher level of European competition, namely the UCL. It is clear that this is indeed a difficult competition where they of course have to be able to get the best place in that competition next season, failure in the UEL this season of course it's a big blow for them, but not only on the site it seems they will meet Atalanta again where Xabi Alonso was humiliated in the UEL final yesterday with a landslide score of three goals without reply, I'm sure Xabi Alonso will avenge their defeat next season.

Xabi Alonso's tactics and strategy are so easy that they are easy to read and in the end Atalanta was able to bend Leverkusen's knees, just like when they bent Liverpool's knees with a landslide score and three goals without reply, Atalanta always has a surprise because they are not too focused on maintaining their position in the domestic league but they are actually much more focused on the UEL competition, no one can predict that, but that's how Atalanta deserves to be the UEL champion this season, next season I also hope that Atalanta will meet Leverkusen again, it will definitely be an interesting match to watch.

For certain reasons, perhaps the players targeted by other teams will prefer to stay, for example they still want to work together and help Xabi next season, especially when they play in the Champions League. Of course, these players will also be happy considering that they will be playing in a more prestigious competition such as the Champions League, so maybe they will stay at Leverkusen.

Because after all, they can also improve their performance because Xabi has helped them, so they can show their best game. Usually players will be able to play and show their best abilities when they are in the hands of the right coach, and now it can be said that Xabi is the right coach for them.

And also Leverkusen will affect them, I mean if Leverkusen prefers to sell them they also can't do much. But I see that now Leverkusen is giving its players the freedom to make choices.

Although he does not have much experience in coaching and Leverkusen is the first senior team he has handled during his time as a coach, but his ability to bring very significant changes has certainly made him gain enormous popularity even compared to Gasperini who won the Europa League this season with Atlanta, if we talk about Leverkusen of course there is no end if based on achievements and also a record of their unbeaten this season, the ability and experience that Alonso has in coaching is of course very little so far, but in fact he was able to surprise us all with everything he did during his time coaching Leverkusen, their incredible achievement of course winning the Bundesliga trophy unbeaten but in Europe league it seems that they do need to improve their mentality in achieving victory in important matches such as the final.

Next season Leverkusen will play in the Champions League and of course the challenges they face are certainly not as easy as in the European league this season, Leverkusen will face the best team that is indeed from the best league league in Europe, so indeed Leverkusen of course needs preparation and also an improvement in their performance to at least be able to qualify for a better round than only the last 16 next season

It's true, he will have an even bigger challenge next season, besides having to be able to maintain what he has shown this season, he also has to show that they can compete at a higher level such as the Champions League. It is a task that will not be easy for him, but I am sure he will try as hard as he can to bring Leverkusen to achieve something to be proud of in the Champions League.
They don't have to be champions, they can show a charming game that will allow them to talk a lot in the Champions League next season. I think that's more than enough for them. Because we also have to be realistic that it is not easy to become champions in the Champions League, especially if the team doesn't have as much experience as teams that are used to being there.

Leverkusen's players have performed very well this season and Leverkusen certainly wants to retain their players and has no intention of selling them and even bought players to replace the roles of players who have contributed greatly to achieving this season's achievements. Xabi Alonso still wants players who are the goal is to stay afloat and provide strong competition again for next season because Leverkusen wants tight competition in the domestic and international leagues, especially since Leverkusen will play in the Champions League next season and Leverkusen needs strong players so they don't make mistakes.

Indeed, when the club is on the rise, the players will definitely be targeted by big clubs and it will be quite a difficult choice for the players whether they want to stay or leave the club and move to a bigger club which is of course more convincing and Leverkusen is at a different level to Real Madrid, unless the players are willing to stay at Leverkusen because of their very high loyalty and solidarity, then Xabi Alonso will be safe because Xabi Alonso does not need to make a major overhaul, only needs to add one or two players to improve their performance next season.

Moreover, next season could also be Xabi last season with Leverkusen so they will definitely try their best and really show their best performance in every match.
Even though they failed, it was still very happy thing for everyone because it had been long time since Leverkusen had been in the Europa League final and this season they recorded their name as runners-up in the Europa League.
Previously, Leverkusen was also just team that was always in not very good condition, they spent every season failing and were team that was very easy to beat by other big team.
I sure they will continue to try to learn and improve any existing shortcomings, defeat does not mean destruction and defeat can be the beginning of building an increasingly formidable strength.

Yes, we see how Leverkusen will compete in the UCL, whether they can play as well as in the Europa League or not, but I admit that the competition will be much more difficult than in the Europa League.

Well, the UCL is one of the strongest, only the best teams in Europe are there and that is something we all know, that is why and sometimes we cannot set the bar so high, at Least for a team like Leverkusen, let's hope that for a long time, Xabi Alonso knows how to talk to his players so that they take advantage of each one of the opportunities they have, that is why it is always good to Know how they can prepare themselves, if already with the experience of Atalanta in a Europa League final, things are more delicate for Xabi, it is known that he cannot be Trusted for anything in the world , and this is a fact, therefore every time they play they must go out and Continue leaving their soul in every game.

Xabi Alonso has indeed made many news media continue to report on him because of his greatness in making positive changes to the Leverkusen club. Even though he failed in the Europa League final, we still see everyone's appreciation for Xabi Alonso. Because that was the only defeat for Leverkusen in the season that just finished.

The real challenge will be in the UCL next season. And Xabi Alonso must be prepared for a stronger level of opponent in the UCL. And if you look at Leverkusen's current quality, Leverkusen's potential in the UCL is actually quite good. At least I'm sure this team will make it to the last 16 in the UCL. And even if they fail to qualify from the group qualifying round, at least this team can return to the European League. But I'm sure Xabi Alonso will take Leverkusen further in the UCL.

Coupled with that, I also feel that Bayern Leverkusen were over confident that they’ll triumph against Atalanta after the much success and praises they’ve had throughout the season with their unbeaten run. It was clear that they underplayed that day and Atalanta who had already prepared better and wanted a victory after losing one finals already were on top energetic mode. It was a lesson to be learn by them, I actually love Atalanta’s victory that day because it was pure victory for them and not based on luck. They worked for it and deserved the victory.


There are some players that you don’t gamble with no matter the price tag a club that’s interested in them place on them, that is because you’ll lose your value as a club if you don’t do well that season and be called a one season wonder shine club. Keep the most important ones and convince the management to keep them no matter what, even if it means increasing their pay. Leicester did the same that year and lost their value just after that season. Bayern Leverkusen should stick to their players that gave them this victory, they need them to continue to be at the top next season again.

Xabi Alonso has coaching characteristics that not many other young coaches have, he was able to bring Liverkusen in one and a half seasons straight to skyrocket with their performance. Almost all the instruments in each line did their job well, unfortunately in this competition they failed to overthrow Atalanta. Honestly, I don't understand why Xabi even rotated his players in the final match. even though, they should have played the full core of players from the start of the match. but all that has passed, now Leverkusen has moved up to the Champions League competition. Next season will be a new challenge for Alonso and his team, apart from focusing on defending the domestic league title, they also have to focus on the Champions League. Talking about strategy, Leverkusen actually plays with various systems. In fact, they played energetically with very high enthusiasm. and one of the things that fuels them to play every match is their fighting spirit, playing a collective and fast game. that's why every time we watch a Liverkusen match it's very exciting to enjoy. So, next season the squad coached by Xabi Alonso will not compete in this League, they will play more elite matches, namely the Champions League. interesting, let's wait for their performance in various competitions after they are rolled out later.

Maintaining the squad is indeed one way to be able to maintain their consistency for next season, because if they continue to change players then it is difficult for them to maintain their consistency. Because basically Bayer Leverkusen is not an elite team, so with finances that are not as good as Real Madrid, it is at least  difficult for Bayer Leverkusen to maintain many of its key players. But indeed, considering the way Real Madrid always has young players who are willing to stay in the team for a long time,then Real Madrid also manages to have a good performance every season, because the team has a good chemistry. Therefore, if Bayer Leverkusen is able and successful in retaining its key players then ofcourse, Bayer Leverkusen has a chance to still be able to play well in the next season.

Leverkusen's success last season attracted everyone's attention. Xabi Alonso is also experiencing an increasing reputation as a young coach who is considered to have great talent as a coach. And yes, no one will be able to ignore the extraordinary achievements of Leverkusen and Xabi Alonso in the season that has just finished. Leverkusen, which only suffered one defeat in all competitions in one season, was truly extraordinary. But I hope Xabi Alonso is not under pressure in the next season. I hope Xabi alonso remains a confident coach there. Although in the coming season everything will definitely not be easy for Leverkusen. Because other clubs will definitely be more alert when facing Leverkusen. For this reason, Xabi Alonso may also have to create a new strategy that his opponents will not read. Because the same strategy in every match will of course only make it easier for opponents to learn and can cause Leverkusen to lose because their strategy has been read.
