Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[SmartCharpa]

Next season will not be easy for Leverkusen if they don't give Xabi the new players he wants, we know they will be competing in the Champions League next season and there will be many teams they will meet with fanatical squads, in this case I hope Leverkusen management spends money to convince several players to strengthen Leverkusen next season.

Of course, with their success this season we cannot be sure what next season will be like, of course the Bundesliga clubs will also strengthen their sectors so they can compete with Leverkusen and other teams, next season will of course be different from this season.

With the current players, Leverkusen is still capable of competing in every competition next season, but if they want to strengthen the team next season, they should add more players to their squad because we have seen how their performance was weak in Europe League final. Their performance was strong from the start of the season but they couldn't maintain their winning ways against Atalanta. If the management is not going to buy more players, they shouldn't sell off their current players during the transfer window because that will have an impact on their games next season. Of course, the Bundesliga will be more challenging next season because every team will buy more players since Leverkusen has broken Bayern Munich's record for winning the title this season, I believe every team in the Bundesliga will feel strong enough to win the title next season. So the management needs to get more players because other clubs have understood their way of playing this season.

I don't doubt Xabi Alonso because what they got this season is the result of his hard work since last season, not just luck, so it is possible that this can continue or even get better.
The heavy pressure next season will definitely be from Bayern Munich who will grow even stronger to compete for the title and of course that will make the Bundesliga competition even more competitive.

Whatever they achieved this season we can call it hard work or by luck. In my opinion, if it was hard work they could have put more strength in the Europa League final. However, I doubt Xabi Alonso for next season because it is not only Bayern Munich that will pressure them for the title next season, I believe that many clubs will improve their games next season, like Stuttgart who finished the season in second place. Let's see if the history will repeat itself next season.

[Palakka]

I think he should be given a good amount of money for the results that he has brought in this season. So that he will be able to bring in similar or better results in the next season as well. However, I highly doubt that he will be able to get better results than the results that he has already brought in. Because I do not expect him to win the champions league competition with Leverkusen. That is going to be a big surprise for everyone. But anyway I think this season has been magical for them. Winning the Bundesliga title and winning the DFB Pokal, it was definitely a dream come true since nobody in the last 11 years was able to win the Bundesliga title except from Bayern Munich.

I hope next season is going to be so great for them as well. I wonder if they will be able to win the Bundesliga in the next season again.

Alonso deserves a very big award from Leverkusen after he was able to win the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal, this season the prize money obtained from the championship is certainly not big but even so at least it will lift the prestige and popularity of Leverkusen later, two trophies after 120 years without a title is certainly a very remarkable achievement even though there are no star players in their squad,  Alonso this season has done a very good job and we can even say it has been the perfect journey in winning domestic trophies.

Leverkusen next season will play in the Champions League and as we know, if the Champions League is an elite league filled with elite clubs and has a quality squad, so if indeed Leverkusen wants to make a surprise again next season of course Alonso must be given a large budget to add depth to their squad, this season we can indeed say if the Leverkusen squad is good enough but still they need additional players who are indeed Able to improve their performance to be better than this season.

[QueenVera]

I always count Xabi Alonso among the best players and also among the best coaches in the world, he has broken a record in Bundesliga and I don’t think no one can do that, but there are still people who will still call him a bad coach if he goes to another team have a bad season, we the fans sometimes we don’t know how it is for a coach to be having a good season, Alonso have made Bayer Leverkusen a strong team when the team is not in a good shape, he advice the team to buy a players that he needs and achieve what he wants by the team support, Alonso can go to any team and make the team performance look good if the team buy the players he ask the team to buy because a team needs a players that a coach can control.

Xabi Alonso as a coach has achieved what some coaches have been looking for from the day they started as a coach, just 6 years as a coach and he has been a great coach, Real Madrid is following Xabi Alonso to make him the team next coach when Ancelotti leave the team and, surely, Alonso will accept Real Madrid without no thinking twice about it, he always wants to become Real Madrid coach one day and he is waiting for the opportunity to come to the team and set another record like the way Zinedine Zidan did and I’m very sure that Alonso can do it.

Bayern Leverkusen got themselves in the history books as they have been able to win their first ever Bundesliga title. The win over Werder Bremen was enough to hell them seal up their place in first place and get them the trophy. Their run to this win of the title has been one that’s been quite fascinating especially as they haven’t recorded any loss in their way up till this moment and also none across all competitions. This performance is real top notch and as such you can imagine how much efforts the boys and Xabi Alonso have put in to the success of this.

 Alonso has very much been impressive in his performances for Leverkusen. He's been watched and observed and in all his games, he's proven to present an outstanding and formidable team. He's just new in the business but yet still has set up a formidable team. I really won't be surprised if he's beckoned up on by bigger clubs to show his abilities. He's proven to be worthy to handle well any team presented to him and definitely I believe he can do well if another team is put in his care. Maybe his strategies work well for him and can still work well with another team. With Leverkusen, he's done well and he's working towards an aim for the club. He's been watched closely to see how well he'd be able to keep up with the games for the team and see how well he can uphold against their biggest threat in the Bundesliga.

 He's just been able to prove himself worthy to take on a higher ranked club. His good at what he's done so far even with a less productive squad as Leverkusen, now one would imagine how enormous he'd achieve with a productive squad with higher player capacity and quality. He's another one amongst many players turn coach that did well both in the pitch and in the manager's box too. I really won't be surprised if he's beckoned up on by bigger clubs to show his abilities.

[hahay]

I don't doubt Xabi Alonso because what they got this season is the result of his hard work since last season, not just luck, so it is possible that this can continue or even get better.
The heavy pressure next season will definitely be from Bayern Munich who will grow even stronger to compete for the title and of course that will make the Bundesliga competition even more competitive.

I guess it will be cant getting better as they have played the whole season of the german league and its hard to top that.
Leverkusen have to proof themself now in the Champions League , but i think that they will be doing that.
Bayern Munich for sure have already the pressure and with the change of the Coach and few players leave it will be not easy.

I am sure that the strong contenders for the Bundesliga trophy next season will not be Bayer Leverkusen with Bayern Munich, but Bayer Leverkusen with Dortmund, Leipzig or maybe another surprise team. Because I'm sure, Bayern Munich will still be in chaos because it seems like Bayern Munich chose the wrongcoach and because of that,I'm sure Bayern Munich will be out of contention for the Bundesliga title next season. With the chaos experienced by Bayern Munich,I also believe that the era of Bayern Munich in the Bandesliga is over and next, we might get several other teams who will win the Bundesliga trophy.

Leverkusen next season will play in the Champions League and as we know, if the Champions League is an elite league filled with elite clubs and has a quality squad, so if indeed Leverkusen wants to make a surprise again next season of course Alonso must be given a large budget to add depth to their squad, this season we can indeed say if the Leverkusen squad is good enough but still they need additional players who are indeed Able to improve their performance to be better than this season.

With the performance that Xabi has shown this season, I think the management and club officials will not hesitate to support Xabi in adding depth to the squad, even though it could cost a lot of the budget. Competing in the Champions League while trying to defend the Bundesliga trophy will of course not be easy, Xabi needs additional ammunition to be able to bring Leverkusen to conquer various challenges and achieve targets next season.

With a very solid team, the adventure of Xabi and his fleet next season will be easier, especially if they all stay at the club and don't leave. Several important Leverkusen players will definitely receive offers from other European elite clubs, and Xabi certainly has to be very astute in dealing with this, while looking at the potential of other players who can be recruited in the next transfer window.

Last summer, Xakha was one of Leverkusen most successful recruits, because in his first season he immediately had a big influence on the team, so that Leverkusen was able to win two trophies. I think Xabi will again look for players with the same characteristics as Xhaka, of course those who have experience playing in the Champions League, so that Leverkusen can have an instant impact, without taking a long time to adapt to the existing squad.

[tygeade]

What Bayer Leverkusen has shown this season is quite good and even fantastic, apart from their failure in the Europa League final, but that's how football is, no one can predict with certainty, even though Bayern Leverkusen are very favorites, they actually lost badly in the final match against Atalanta.

For next season, Bayern Leverkusen still has the possibility of still being able to compete fiercely with Bayern Munich because Xabi Alonso has decided to remain as coach of Bayern Leverkusen and I even think it is possible for them to be stronger.
The revival of Bayern Leverkusen and several other Bundesliga teams has had quite a positive impact on the Bundesliga competition becoming more competitive and this can also make the Bundesliga teams stronger to be able to compete on the European stage in the following season.

I do not think that it will go on for a very long time, because financial situations means that Bayern will keep being at the top for a very long time. Because other teams do not have the income that Bayern Munich does, and because of that we are going to see Bayern Munich will always have the best players on their club, they could just go buy the best players at Leverkusen if they want to, these guys spent 120 million to get Kane last season, you think if they offered 120 million they can't get players from Leverkusen?

They can get any they want, probably a few. Doesn't mean they will, it just means that they are going to be able to keep being the best team and keep winning, and they lost for the first time in over a decade, so it's fine.

[Antotena]

Next season will not be easy for Leverkusen if they don't give Xabi the new players he wants, we know they will be competing in the Champions League next season and there will be many teams they will meet with fanatical squads, in this case I hope Leverkusen management spends money to convince several players to strengthen Leverkusen next season.

Why did you say so? Is there a justification to your statements? Because I remember they have an incredible run so far in the history of European football and I'm not sure is there is any news about any player eager to live. The majority of Leverkusen players want to stay because of what they have achieve this season and who doesn't want to be associated with a good preforming club and a good coach that everyone is looking forward to have on their side.

Of course, with their success this season we cannot be sure what next season will be like, of course the Bundesliga clubs will also strengthen their sectors so they can compete with Leverkusen and other teams, next season will of course be different from this season.

No one definitely know what will happen to a team performance the next season but do you see what is happening in Premier League? For 4 seasons, a single team won the Premier League in one of the toughest league ever and they don't even looks like they are stopping next season as they are even more stronger than ever and you think another team can't do the same in another league, nothing is impossible most especially when the team and coach are too good.

[Die_empty]

I am sure that the strong contenders for the Bundesliga trophy next season will not be Bayer Leverkusen with Bayern Munich, but Bayer Leverkusen with Dortmund, Leipzig or maybe another surprise team. Because I'm sure, Bayern Munich will still be in chaos because it seems like Bayern Munich chose the wrongcoach and because of that,I'm sure Bayern Munich will be out of contention for the Bundesliga title next season. With the chaos experienced by Bayern Munich,I also believe that the era of Bayern Munich in the Bandesliga is over and next, we might get several other teams who will win the Bundesliga trophy.

Until proven otherwise, Bayern Munich chose the wrong coach. The club is just gambling on the future of the club by appointing a relatively inexperienced coach. I have tried to uncover the criteria that Bayern used to appoint him and it is difficult to find any outstanding reason. Was it because  Vincent Kompany had experience with the Bundesliga during his days in Hamburg or because he speaks German fluently. Was it because of his performance in the Championship last season? Why didn't they evaluate him with his present days with Burnley which led them to relegation?

Some pundits have argued that successful coaches like Mikel Arteta and Xabi Alonso don't have any coaching experience, but they are doing well in their clubs. So we don't have to write off Bayern Munich because, with the right players and support, the Kompany can do the extraordinary. I think Bayern Munich will still be a contender for the number one spot in the Bundesliga.

[Jegileman]

Next season will not be easy for Leverkusen if they don't give Xabi the new players he wants, we know they will be competing in the Champions League next season and there will be many teams they will meet with fanatical squads, in this case I hope Leverkusen management spends money to convince several players to strengthen Leverkusen next season.

I don’t think Bayern Leverkusen needs a lot more new players if their current players are not leaving to join other teams now. He will only need few players to join to the team which I am sure will not be a big deal or a difficult one for the club to provide the finances for it. He can still build on his existing players to make them a formidable team as they were in this season. I have full faith in Xabi Alonso and I know he can’t do it again next season.

Of course, with their success this season we cannot be sure what next season will be like, of course the Bundesliga clubs will also strengthen their sectors so they can compete with Leverkusen and other teams, next season will of course be different from this season.

I won’t see a major change in the Bundesliga next season if they still wants to play with the tactics they use this season. They can as well have a plan B in case the existing plan doesn’t work in their favour since many teams would have already understood that from them now.  Asides that, I don’t see any major change that can have effect on their performance come next season.

There will definitely be additions or changes to players. It seems there are players who are out and Xabi is also definitely developing a strategy to target tag players. Yes, however, now Leverkusen has become a top club. and they will join UCL next season. So, in any case, Xabi has brought together several more talented players who will be his key players in the future. But as you say, you don't need many, just a few who are really suitable and can make the team much stronger. No major changes, only few that will exactly boost up again their strength.

Xabi also said that he is going to sit down with Simon Rolfes, the Leverkusen Director to talk about what the best planning for the next season. It also includes who will they target to. So, we are just waiting for their decision to bid the best player for Leverkusen.

“We must make good decisions for the future because I have the desire and wish to continue this success. Not right away, but next week Monday, we will sit down and start planning to make this season’s success more sustainable.”

[TelolettOm]

However, I have heard several rumors that there are several big clubs who want Xabi to become their coach. And when asked by journalists, unfortunately Xabi did not want to comment. It's natural, because after all, Xabi just wanted to celebrate Leverkusen's victory in the DFB Pokal and also their success with the team.

If I am in the shoes of Xabi Alonso, I will not leave Bayern Leverkusen just now because he has just succeeded in creating a grade A team out of an average team, so he is better of at the club. He understands the players, they love and respect him and he has been lucky with the team as well, they then should he leave to go and start all over in another club. Leaving now will be one of the worse mistakes he can make and I am sure it will affect his career so much. Take for instance, if he leaves and join another club and end up not achieving anything, that will be a big slap to his career because everyone will conclude that it was just luck that helped him win the German Bundesliga, the cup and also go to Europa league final.

The latest rumor is that Man City is interested in including Xabi on the list of Man City coaches to replace Pep in the coming summer. Ah, this is not good. But I still believe that if Xabi will stay at Leverkusen. Indeed, Man City is a promising club, but Leverkusen is beyond expectations. Xabi has been able to lift Leverkusen this far and is this good, what they have to do is improve him, no matter how. With the combination of Xabi and the whole team, of course this will really make Xabi and the whole team even more solid, that's how it should be. Hopefully it's just a rumor and Xabi remains at Leverkusen.

I believe Bayer Leverkusen coach will train his players very well against next season, so that they will be able to lift two or one trophy next season because they will be joining UEFA champions league competition next season.

Leverkusen, alongside with Xabi will still have high chance to win Bundesliga and also DFB pokal again next season. But for the UCL, they must get much better efforts to compete with high top clubs in Europa. but it doesn't mean to underestimate Leverkusen. this club has done great job last season. and with Xabi, the probabilty to reach higher target may be true enough.

Improvement is a must for Leverkusen next season, despite they had a great performance this season. They will need a more quality and deeper squad when they will play in Champions League, the challenge will be bigger. Signing two or three players with better quality than current player is enough to add some freshness to the squad. They main task is to make sure their starting eleven staying at the club before they make signings.

Alonso need also to prepare some new variant tactics to enter next season. They can't keep playing the same tactics as this season for the whole next season, other teams will have anticipation on how play against them, and it will be harder season for them. Maintenance is more difficult than development, Alonso will need more support to maintain their performance to repeat the success.

This mentality is part of the reason why some clubs easily fall off after one season, because they couldn’t build on the success and too much expectations. They definitely had a brilliant season that nobody can take away from them, I even expect them to win the next club of the year. But mate they are participating in the biggest club competition next season. Imagine, having to play against Manchester city and then another to club or so. They need to definitely add players this should be done by allowing players who have long been in the club and have falling the picking order to create more room for potential additions. Adding quality players to the team is way better because it will create more competition within the team which helps every club to stay competitive and hungry

Of course Leverkusen will consider new strategies that they can use to achieve victory in the new season's matches which will soon come. So far, the gaps in the strategy they used last season may already be known because every coach will evaluate the strategy used by the enemy and look for weaknesses. Every strength you have will definitely have a hidden weakness. Xabi Alonso is aware that the strength of a big team like Bayern Munich has weakened after many of its great players left and were injured, so Leverkusen can take advantage of this opportunity to improve its performance.

[X-ray]

Strengthening the squad is a must. Xabi totally aware about this. He will be buying the new player and develop it as a preparation for the upcoming season. Kompany will be probably overhauling bayern munich. So, leverkusen must be fully prepared because defending the trophy is far harder rather than winning it.
They must always be improving their squad in any season. Xabi must be finding a new defender following stanisic is back again to the bayern munich. He came to the leverkusen as a loan.

Josip Stanišić said goodbye to Leverkusen during their title celebration today. Stadium announcer Tobias Ufer said as he handed Stanišić a farewell photo: “We’ll just give him the picture and then we’ll see what happens next.” - the fans also chanted his name.

He came to the bayern leverkusen as a loan and xabi must have found a worthy replacement for him. Some changes still needed by bayern leverkusen to ensure it will always be competitive in any season under xabi alonso.
Xabi is now hunting a good defender for leverkusen. Still not yet clear who is the name gonna be recruited by him.

[Bobrox]

Finally, Bayern Munich have appointed Vincent Kompany as new manager for replacing Thomas Tuchel position and his contract valid until June 2027, three years later will see how possibility with Bayern Munich will return back for winning Bundesliga competition or Vincent Kompany will sack before his contract expiry.
Personally, its difficult acceptable with Bayern Munich appointed Vincent Kompany become their new manager for next season because he failed with Burnley after relegated to EFL Championship this season. I doubt will Bayern Munich get success for winning Bundesliga and has most impressive performance in Champion League because Vincent Kompany lack experienced on the top level competition.

Interested waiting with Vincent Kompany will make Xabi Alonso as great competitor for next season because Leverkusen under Alonso success become invisible winner of Bundesliga for this season.

I doubt will Bayern Munich get success for winning Bundesliga and has most impressive performance in Champion League because Vincent Kompany lack experienced on the top level competition.

Bayern Munich made another risky decision and they likely bet that players, assistant coaches who had working with Pep Guardiola will have good potential to become a great head coach. Xabi Alonso, Mikel Arteta are possible motivational successful coaches with past experience together with Pep Guardiola.

Bayern Munich will need to improve their defense from goalkeeper to defensive positions because they can not depend on old players like Neuer forever and as a world class central defender in his player career, Kompany understood well about the importance of strong defense in success of a club.

Interested waiting with Vincent Kompany will make Xabi Alonso as great competitor for next season because Leverkusen under Alonso success become invisible winner of Bundesliga for this season.

Bayern Munich can repeat what they usually do on transfer market, buying best players of their domestic opponents and in this summer, they can buy one or some players from Bayer Leverkusen and directly affect general strength and competitiveness of Leverkusen as their good preparation for a next season in Bundesliga.

Arteta and Kompany will have interesting competition as head coaches of two strongest clubs in Bundesliga next season.

[klidex]

I am sure that the strong contenders for the Bundesliga trophy next season will not be Bayer Leverkusen with Bayern Munich, but Bayer Leverkusen with Dortmund, Leipzig or maybe another surprise team. Because I'm sure, Bayern Munich will still be in chaos because it seems like Bayern Munich chose the wrongcoach and because of that,I'm sure Bayern Munich will be out of contention for the Bundesliga title next season. With the chaos experienced by Bayern Munich,I also believe that the era of Bayern Munich in the Bandesliga is over and next, we might get several other teams who will win the Bundesliga trophy.

If that's the case then the Bundesliga will be even more interesting because the competition for the title is no longer about Bayern Munich anymore because I've been quite bored for more than a decade. Bayern Munich always wins the Bundesliga title and no club will break that dominance except for Leverkusen this season. Hopefully Next season, Leverkusen will still be in the title race with other clubs. It would be better if Stuttgart were in it because Stuttgart has provided quite fierce competition this season and the Bundesliga will be a competitive club like other leagues because the competition is tight.

I don't know how Bayern Munich can appoint a coach who comes from a club that is currently in the relegation zone in the Premier League. I don't think this coach can fix Bayern Munich which is looking chaotic in the Bundesliga. Even this coach is unable to save Burnley from being in the Premier League this season future and must end up in the relegation zone, so it is possible that Bayern Munich will still be in an unstable state next season even though they have quality players. If they recruit the wrong coach, the club will be destroyed.

[fadhilz123]

Of course Leverkusen will consider new strategies that they can use to achieve victory in the new season's matches which will soon come. So far, the gaps in the strategy they used last season may already be known because every coach will evaluate the strategy used by the enemy and look for weaknesses. Every strength you have will definitely have a hidden weakness. Xabi Alonso is aware that the strength of a big team like Bayern Munich has weakened after many of its great players left and were injured, so Leverkusen can take advantage of this opportunity to improve its performance.

Apart from analyzing the weaknesses of their rivals, each team is also very obliged to improve its own strengths in order to face the new season by implementing new strategies as you said. Because if in every season nothing changes about a team, be it the strategy or the players, this will certainly be easier for each rival to read so that the rivals will find it easier to attack them in any match. So I also think that Leverkusen still needs to add new strategies to their squad for next season for a winning streak like they got this season.

[Mayor of ogba]

Congratulations to Xabi Alonso for winning the Global Soccer Award as the best coach of the year 2024. It is a well-deserved award. Xabi Alonso displayed an impressive performance with Bayern Leverkusen in the Bundesliga last season.
