Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[rendravolt]

Leverkusen has officially extended Xabi Alonso's contract until 2026 and this is a great appreciation for Xabi Alonso after making very significant changes with Leverkusen since last season. Maybe Leverkusen have enough concerns with this coach because so many other European teams are quite interested in him, it was even rumored that he would become Ancelotti's replacement at Real Madrid next year. However, what is clear is that with this contract renewal, Xabi Alonso's focus will be fully on the team he is building and can't wait to see Leverkusen compete again to be able to get a place in the top 4 of the standings later.

Xabi's impact to the leverkusen was very big but i think real madrid can easily buy out him from leverkusen next year. It will not become a big problem for real madrid even though xabi has long term contract with leverkusen. Madrid needs to put its focus on fixing the problems that faced by the club.
Leverkusen is now focusing in facing the next season. There must be a lot of things to be prepared before this club gonna make its comeback again to get UCL spot next season. Leverkusen potentially to be a new threat for bayern and dortmund soon.
Another good decision from leverkusen but i think that if the club should give xabi short term contract extension.

That's right, this is one of Leverkusen's strategies to extend Xabi Alonso's contract so that later if Real Madrid are interested in signing him, they must be prepared to provide a sizable fee for Xabi Alonso as the next Real Madrid coach. I don't think it's a problem for Real Madrid with always good finances every season.

Seeing the current situation it is quite clear that currently there is no further contact between the two teams to discuss the future of the coach and are more focused on their respective squads to get better achievements than the previous season. I think there may be opportunities to threaten both clubs but it seems that winning the Bundesliga title isn't there yet.

Xabi Alonso gave something different to this club, and last season managed to bring this club to the semifinals of the European league is an achievement even though they failed from AS Roma, but how he can change Bayern Leverkusen quickly is really surprising, and his coaching career has a good future.

Before this, many rumors said Xabi might go to Real Madrid. But with this contract extension, it won't happen until at least 2026. Kareona Leverkusen gave a 3-year contract extension. Keeping him is certainly good, he has good development. This season Leverkusen also ended in 6th position. This means Leverkusen will remain in the Europa League next season.

If long as Xabi and the Leverkusen players are able to perform consistently this season I think it will not be difficult for him to perform well in the next champions league. maybe last season it failed in the European league but we do not know Xabi efforts for Leverkusen the following season because Xabi seriousness in training his players is very intelligent and his contribution is very good. he has a target to bring the team to win a title in the champions league competition.
if you compare coach Xabi, he is like Pep Guardiola who always learns from previous mistakes so that the team he trains can improve his performance every season and it is very clear that all of the coach success can bring his players to be more solid and consistent.

Why are you saying it's impossible to happen until 2026? Xabi can leave from the club anytime as he wants. There's no need for madrid to wait for him while ancelotti was still there. Xabi agreed to extend his contract but he will never forget that if madrid has become his best club. Leverkusen can keep him this season, but Madrid may want him next year to replace Ancelotti. Xabi just need to focus on leverkusen now. Madrid may come with a new offer for him next year. It will be so difficult for xabi to reject madrid's offer once it will be real. Xabi is still having a dream to coaching real madrid. As long as xabi shows a good result in leverkusen in the upcoming season. The chance for madrid to sign him as a new coach is big.

[topbitcoin]

and.... congratulations to Leverkusen that Xabi Alsonso has extended his contract there until 2026. i think he is the right coach for the Leverkusen team...

edit: Yann Sommer moves from Bayern Munich to Inter Milan. Bayern gets 6 million euros from Inter Milan for the goalkeeper.
it's a shame that Yann Sommer is leaving the Bundesliga, he's a cool keeper.

Leverkusen's performance when coached by Xabi experienced a drastic increase, it can even be said that the presence of Xabi there replacing Seoane made those who could be said to be destroyed again find their performance even to be in a decent position so it is very natural for Leverkusen to secure Xabi as their coach.

For Yann Sommer he is a good goalkeeper especially when he was at Gladbach but indeed the performance at Bayern and age conditions although still forceable it seems he is not too suitable to be at Bayern and moving to Inter will clearly give him a lot of time especially the absence of Onana will ensure Yann Sosmed has no competition for the position of the main goalkeeper.

[Velvet78]

After David Raya and David de Gea, Bono is also a candidate to be Bayern Munich's new goalkeeper according to rumours. But among all of these goalkeepers I would still favour de Gea to be the one to sign for them. I just can't see the other candidates at his level now. I know Bono impressed people in the last World Cup together with Livakovic.

But I don't think this is still good to be better than de Gea. I know de Gea's performance was better than now in the past but he is still a solid goalkeeper. I can't even remember the number of times he saved Manchester United by great saves in the recent times.

I still don't believe how De Gea was sent from Manchester United. I think Manchester United betrayed him. He was one of the best on the roster. The contract has not been extended and being the second baseman is not good for him. If he transfers to Bayern Munich, it will be a huge transfer for Bayern Munich. I think he is a better goalkeeper than the other candidates.

de Gea was actually keen on staying at Manchester United. But he didn't want to take a pay cut at the same time. Manchester United didn't want to give the amount of money he wanted anymore and that was the reason why he became free agent later. Otherwise de Gea was quite happy to be there.

A goalkeeper like de Gea shouldn't stay as free agent for a long time. Hopefully Bayern Munich or some other top European team act quicker than Saudi Arabian teams. Because I don't want to see him leaving Europe yet as he is a really quality goalkeeper and his age is also not that old for a goalkeeper yet.

[wiss19]

over 100 million euros. that's insane. Bayern München has never paid that much money for a star. i think that's a really big risk.
will Kane play as well as he did in England? will Kane stay healthy? and will Kane be as successful as Lewandowski?

Bayern are so adamant that they want Harry Kane and they are not reluctant to spend that much money to get him. Of course they have great hopes that the striker will play optimally and bring Bayern to the top in the UCL, especially if a deal is done later. However, I also think, for that age, even though he is a great player, is Bayern not exaggerating when they are actually Can you get another alternative that might be more suitable?

Hemm, of course Bayern have considered it, that's why they made this offer as the last bid and hoped for a result by giving Tottenham a deadline to accept or not. approved or not.

With latest updates are coming which are positive for the Bayern Munich and Harry Kane because new big which is almost biggest in Bayern Munich history already offered and Tottenham is also happy now €100M is good and now with this money they can bring few quality players which can do good for the club after departure of Harry Kane and this legendary striker is now also have good chance for winning trophies Bundesliga is already in for them as in last 11 years no challenge give them problem but with the arrival of Harry Kane Bayern Munich can go through for the Champions League as well because he is one of the best, and they are missing player like him in last two years which can give them good aggressive performance.

Even few are feeling this is big risk by Bayern Munich but most chances they will be ended good after going through with their this investment and performance of Harry Kane could also give good pleasure to Bavarians as well.

Why are you saying it's impossible to happen until 2026? Xabi can leave from the club anytime as he wants. There's no need for madrid to wait for him while ancelotti was still there. Xabi agreed to extend his contract but he will never forget that if madrid has become his best club. Leverkusen can keep him this season, but Madrid may want him next year to replace Ancelotti.

Xabi is still having a dream to coaching real madrid. As long as xabi shows a good result in leverkusen in the upcoming season. The chance for madrid to sign him as a new coach is big.

Yeah I agree, extending contract is never been guaranteed that person is going to stay until end of this contract it's just formality and Xabi can leave anytime when he feels not good at this club Bayer Leverkusen even his performance in first season was good, and now he can improve this as well with learning from his mistakes and as we all know Carlos Ancelotti is going to leave after end of this season then most chances he will also leave this club for the Real Madrid but still it's never been sure.

Currently, Xabi is just 41 years old and long career is waiting for him but if he has good opportunities then surely he needs to grab these right now his first target is having good results with Leverkusen which is possible because in last season we have good results from him while he brings this club from relegation to sixth spot and now things can go much better as well.

The board had accomplished in extending Xabi Alonso's contract until June 2026, and they are dealing with greater efficiency during friendlies. The club has more duties to complete in the next seasons, but they have all they need in terms of space. The athletes are excelling, and the coach is a genius. This season, the team will put up a tough fight against its opponents. Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso Gabe significantly improved the club's performance. The squad was in disarray, so the board selected Xabi Alonso to take them, and looking at them now, they are performing exceptionally well in competition.

[Pulsar77]

I believe Leverkusen did the right thing by extending with Xabi Alonso. Because he came here and saved the team from even the danger of relegation. Because their form was really pointing to the relegation area. He didn't just make do with saving them from there. They climbed to the 6th position as well which helped them join the Europa League group stage. It is normal for the board to offer an extension of contract to him as a result. But of course this doesn't guarantee anything for this team yet.

Xabi Alonso is still a new manager as you know. We will see how good he is about consistency. If he continues to impress then I also think he can be Real Madrid's future manager someday.

[flipme]

After David Raya and David de Gea, Bono is also a candidate to be Bayern Munich's new goalkeeper according to rumours. But among all of these goalkeepers I would still favour de Gea to be the one to sign for them. I just can't see the other candidates at his level now. I know Bono impressed people in the last World Cup together with Livakovic.

There was already talk that Manuel Neuer's injury could last longer. Nevertheless, they sold Yann Sommer to Inter. They have to make a goalkeeper transfer. David Raya, David de Gea and Bono are good alternatives for them. David de Gea doesn't have a contract with any club, so it would be easier for them to sign him. However, I think David Raya would be a better option for them because he is younger than the other two goalkeepers. Also, if Manuel Neuer comes back to the team sooner than expected, I think he might not mind being his backup for a couple of years.

[laurenB7742]

over 100 million euros. that's insane. Bayern München has never paid that much money for a star. i think that's a really big risk.
will Kane play as well as he did in England? will Kane stay healthy? and will Kane be as successful as Lewandowski?
many questions that no one can answer. if the deal goes through today or tomorrow, then we'll see in december whether this signing of Kane was worth it.
and.... congratulations to Leverkusen that Xabi Alsonso has extended his contract there until 2026. i think he is the right coach for the Leverkusen team...

Harry Kane is a great player. His fitness is still very good. Even in a competitive league like the Premier League, he doesn't face too many injuries. He can consistently perform well and is capable of scoring a lot of goals. Bayern Munich will not face losses even if they spend more than 100 million on Harry Kane. Bayern Munich needs a suitable replacement for Lewandowski. Madrid needs a regular scorer. And Harry Kane could be a worthy replacement for Lewandowski. Bayern Munich are taking Harry Kane at a high price. If Harry Kane can adapt to Bayern Munich's gameplay, he will not disappoint the Munich fans.

100 million Euros is not too much for a player like Kane who is a proven goal scorer in the premier league,he is the most consistent player that Totthenham has at the club,and if he should leave his current club for that fee,it is not a bad deal.Arsenal paid a whooping 105 million pounds for Rice who is no where near the level of Harry Kane,but if we are looking at the age,we can say it's fair amount to pay because Rice is still very young and still has a very great future,but to me,I still think Arsenal overpaid for him,and his price should have been somewhere around 60milliin pounds.He will be a very good signing for Bayern if a deal can be struck with Totthenham bacause he can actually score the number of goals that Lewandowski was scoring at the club too,but in the other end,he will be a big miss for Totthenham because he is their best player.

I agree. 100 million is not much money for a player like Harry Kane. I would say that if Bayern Munich bought Harry Kane for only 100 million, they would undoubtedly benefit. Because he is a tested player. Harry Kane has a lot of scoring ability. And Bayern Munich needed such an experienced striker. Bayern Munich can add players to the squad according to their needs. They are very lucky.
Manchester United spent 75 million for Rasmus Hojlund. And he is not a regular scorer either. Only because he is a young player, Manchester United signed Hojlund for a huge sum of 75 million. And so I think 100 million is very little money for an experienced player like Kane.

Considering his age and other alternative which are the youngsters that can play his position exceptionally well, I consider a 100 million Euros which is the price tag on him to be too much. He isn't worth that anymore. It is quite unlikely that Bayern will pay for him at that price. We do not know if they would benefit or not, he is already a senior player and not as good as he used to be in his younger years. Imagine he gets an injury, at this time in Bayern, that will be the end of his career and a loss for them.

Bayern Munich ambition to sign Harry Kane is quite good, and yeah in my opinion 100 million is not a big problem for Bayern Munich because there is potential for them to get the UCL trophy if they get the services of Harry Kane. Considering that Bayern Munich needs a good striker, to sharpen their attack line then Kane is the best for that position, although he is already 30 years old but his quality in scoring is no doubt.

A goalkeeper like de Gea shouldn't stay as free agent for a long time. Hopefully Bayern Munich or some other top European team act quicker than Saudi Arabian teams. Because I don't want to see him leaving Europe yet as he is a really quality goalkeeper and his age is also not that old for a goalkeeper yet.

In addition, De Gea also did not want to be made the second choice there after Onana by Ten Hag, so it was the best choice for him to get out of there. I don't understand why Ten Hag took this decision, he wanted to keep him but with a pay cut, to De Gea who has accompanied Manchester United's career for 12 years and he has proven he has made many saves under the Manchester United crossbar. We can see his greatness when he plays. I agree with his decision to leave Manchester United. De Gea, he has no place there and now he still doesn't have an official club. I see there are many clubs who want to sign him. Bayern Munich have not reached a definite agreement with David Raya and I think it is very appropriate if I say the only best option for now is De Gea, I hope Tuchel can be one step ahead in his seriousness to get De Gea officially. Because if they lag behind in this decision then I think De Gea will most likely go to Arabia with a fantastic offer there. As I and we know De Gea is a quality goalkeeper and I think this is a better choice for Bayern Munich to do at this time.

Bayern Munich team managed to win the title last season. But Bayern Munich could not have secured the victory had Dortmund not unfortunately lost the match. However, both teams are expected to do better this season.

[dezoel]

At least, if Bayern Munich bring in de Gea then of course, Bayern Munich can bring in for free. So yes, it will certainly be easy for Bayern Munich and moreover, de Gea still has great motivation and ambition to continue playing in the big leagues in Europe. Because yes, with de Gea rejecting offers from clubs in the Suadi league then of course it is also proof, that de Gea is still worthy of being brought in by Bayern Munich. because after all, de Gea is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and de Gea is still very worthy to get the main place in the Bayern Munich squad next season.

David de Gea still has good opportunities if he wants to make a career at Bayern Munich because he has quite good experience with various kinds of experiences that he has had at a fairly old age of 32 years old. David de Gea should be one of the goalkeepers who are already professional and targeted by many big clubs, one of which is Bayern Munich.

David de Gea is just 32 years old with one of the best in business but as he is going through right now most chances he will stay in Spain and two clubs are having most chances to sign him as free agent with Real Betis and Sevilla both are in negations because he already rejected few offers even these were luxurious, but he is now keen to stay in Spain because he still has 3 or 4 years in his prime for giving his best and this is good if he keeps stays in his native country.

Bayern Munich are also trying their best for him but their all hard work is not going to help them and most chances they have to stay with their own sources Al Nassr offer is also rejected which was one of the best to reject but all done right now and trying to stay in Spain instead of going anywhere.

Money is not a big problem for Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich is a very rich club. And they have a lot of money. They need a worthy replacement for Lewandowski. They want to add a regular scorer to the squad. And if they had to spend more than 100 million for this, I think Bayern Munich wouldn't back down. But if Harry Kane can't perform like Lewandowski then it will definitely be a big problem. Harry Kane is a very experienced player. Hopefully he will be able to fit in well with Munich's squad. Because he has played in a competitive league like the Premier League for a long time and has managed to score a lot of goals. With an experienced squad like Munich's, Harry Kane's performance will likely improve.

The squad was in disarray, so the board selected Xabi Alonso to take them, and looking at them now, they are performing exceptionally well in competition.

I think it was Mourinho who said that Xabi was one of the smartest players he managed, someone said this about him but can't really say who was it, but it was someone who coached Xabi when he was playing.

This is one of the proofs right here, it's obvious that he was a smart player because he is a great manager, he has that quality and talent to him. He is going to be managing some big team eventually, probably Bayern at first because many managers first go there if they stay in Bundesliga and have good years. In short, Xabi will be a great manager achieving some great stuff in the future and all of that story starts right here, and I believe it's going to be something to care about as well enough to watch it grow.

[hahay]

I believe Leverkusen did the right thing by extending with Xabi Alonso. Because he came here and saved the team from even the danger of relegation. Because their form was really pointing to the relegation area. He didn't just make do with saving them from there.

Xabi Alonso is still a new manager as you know. We will see how good he is about consistency. If he continues to impress then I also think he can be Real Madrid's future manager someday.

Anyway, in his first season Xabi Alonso has managed to save Leverkusen from the relegation zone. Therefore, it is certainly the right step for Leverkusen to extend Xabi Alonso contract because after all, it also seems that Xabi Alonso has great potential to become a great coach in the future. Because in reality, the competition in the Bundesliga is also not easy, but Xabi Alonso managed to get through it very well I think. Thus, I hope that Xabi Alonso will be even better next season to make Leverkusen able to compete strongly in the top four in the Bundesliga standings.
