Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[imamusma]

Xabi's match strategy is excellent. Xabi has managed to create a friendly relationship between Leverkusen's players. The understanding between the players is very good. This is why Leverkusen's performance has been so strong this season. In every match we see the dominance of Leverkusen players.

That's right, I also like the style that Xabi Alonso uses with his players which is very easy to apply when competing, even though he doesn't have much experience as a coach,  Of course, this is an extraordinary achievement as a new coach and worthy of emulation as a competitor to coaches who already have experience in coaching big clubs.

Xabi Alonso has succeeded in transferring his talents as a successful player into his new role as manager, there are few players who have changed roles like Xabi has done his job equally well. Laverkusen was taken over at the lowest point when Xabi arrived, thanks to the polish of his cold hands Laverkusen managed to emerge as a challenger to Bayern Munchen as well as the Bundesliga trophy. So it makes sense that currently many people are praising Xabi quality, even though Laverkusen later failed to win the trophy, there will still be no shortage of fans. I mean many clubs want to offer him a job, and make him head coach.

The approach that Xabi takes to his players is the key to success, both in terms of relationships with players, staff and club officials. In a broader sense, apart from being a manager, Xabi is a respected leader on and off the pitch. Ups and downs in performance often occur at a club, but so far Xabi and Laverkusen have not shown any signs of decline.

Difficult for Darmstadt as promotion team in  Bundesliga for first season in highest level competition, 16 matches with 2 won, 4 draw and 10 losses is poor achievement make dropped to relegation position standings. Face difficult for three matches later against Dortmund, Frankfurt and Union Berlin seems difficult for Darmstadt get three points and keep away their points from regelation zone. Not only three strong teams for upcoming match, Darmstadt will face Bayern Leverkusen and likely its not easy for them how to out from relegation zone and keep existing their level on Bundesliga competition.
I am not really pessimistic with Darmstadt performance although drop to relegation zone but get benefit with fewest difference points from other relegation teams FC Koln and Mainz have the same points with Darmstadt then three points left from Union Berlin on 15t position standings.

Darmstadt have had quite an unfriendly season in the Bundesliga. They managed to get promoted and then in their recent games, they've faced difficulty and struggles to stay in the games. It's only sad for them because no matter how hard they try, they still weren't able to stand fully strong. They could get relegated from the Bundesliga this season.
 
It's actually not the end of the struggle for them though, they'll still have to battle through the second leg of the season race again and then or hopefully, they may be triumphant or nearly able to hold down the pressures that'll be put before them. They're not fully a good side, but the experience they've acquired is a good one which they should put into practice while building up themselves.

I think its quite normal for a newly promoted team to struggle in their new league. They still managed to get some points though. But they are currently at the bottom of the table with 2 teams above with the same amount of points. To be honest with this performance  I don't see them actually not getting relegated this season. They have tried many things but none of them seems to be working in the Bundesliga.

I think players are feeling too much pressure and not performing the way they should have or they were supposed to. They need to accept that this is their new normal to ease the pressure but it is quite difficult when you are at the biggest stage of the game.

I'm getting more and more curious about what will happen in Leverkusen's matches, yes their impressive performances make me wait for every match they will play, be it in the domestic league, or in the European arena. It's true, when a club is in such good form it makes them a lot to look forward to, and the most important thing is that this is the season when they have the chance to break the dominance of a club that has been very dificult to stop.
One thing we can't forget is their current coach. Although he is still quite new to the world of coaching and does not have much experience, he has a very interesting strategy. And what's more interesting is that he brought this club from a difficult time at the time, and is now in a very good situation to win the title.

Apart from that, Xabi Alonso managed to make new history for Bayer Leverkusen, of course the history of being undefeated is clearly an extraordinary achievement. Although indeed, there is still no guarantee for Xabi Alonso to win the title for Bayer Leverkusen, but yes, at least Xabi has succeeded in making new history for the team and this achievement is an extraordinary achievement too, of course.

But indeed, because Bayer Leverkusen managed to go undefeated, we are at least looking forward to the matches that Bayer Leverkusen will play in the future. Maybe also, looking forward to what kind of match and/or opponent will succeed in making Bayer Leverksuen suffer its first defeat this season. But yes, because Bayer Leverkusen is still consistent then yes, at least I personally will continue to take advantage of this moment to involve Bayer Leverkusen in betting every time Bayer Leverkusen plays.

After Emil Forsberg left Leipzig, they wanted a replacement for him. Now they have found what they were looking for. Eljif Elmas from Napoli has signed a contract with Leipzig. The transfer fee is total 23 million euros and his contract runs until 2028. He will now join the training camp in La Manga, which will starts at 2 January.

The news is quite surprising because Eljif Elmas doesn't have any problems with Napoli and he is playing quite well. But what is clear is that this is a decision he wants for himself and perhaps also wants to try a different league atmosphere. Leipzig seems to be full of hope for his presence and it could be a powerful force.

According to some media reports, Leipzig was already interested in Eljif Elmas during the transfer period in summer this year. However, they did not have enough money at that time and only had enough for Christoph Baumgartner. They also loaned out Xavi Simons and Fabio Carvalho. So now they have had their wish fulfilled.

So far, every problem may not be shown in public, and it is possible that Eljif Elmas prefers to be professional because if he brings internal problems outside to the point where they are covered by several media and shows that there is a serious problem that is very critical, it will make the bad news circulate even more and make the environmental conditions unfavorable. If you look at Napoli's game, it shows that the players are disappointed by showing off their emotions when playing against Roma, so if Eljif Elmas chooses to leave Napoli, then there is an important problem within Napoli that perhaps everyone doesn't know about yet.

If Xabi Alonso has reached a personal agreement with Real Madrid for me it is a very natural thing, because I think he really wants to be at Real Madrid. He's a former Real Madrid player, and I know he's a Real Madrid fan, so if there's an offer coming from Real Madrid he'll be very happy.
On the other hand, it's true what you say, if he leaves Leverkusen then it will have an effect, because we know that the person who brought Leverkusen to the current form is Xabi Alonso. Leverkusen will have to go back and look for a suitable coach who can replace Xabi and that will be very difficult.

I think it is not a natural thing because the season isn't over yet. Xabi Alonso must focus to lead Leverkusen to finish the season with the best achievement (win the titles). It is not the right time to get a personal agreement with any team. If the season is over already, it is okay to negotiate with other teams, including Real Madrid. Although Xabi Alonso is a former player of Real Madrid, he must be professional as a coach. He must be aware that he is the coach of Leverkusen now, he mustn't think about another team.

Yes, that's right, I really agree with what you said, if Xabi has brought many changes to the Bayer Leverkusen team, the extraordinary consistency is none other than because of Xabi performance in managing the team to achieve maximum results so that it can improve the quality of work of all the players, not to mention It is not known for certain whether Xabi accepted the offer, but if yes, I think it was a good decision Xabi smart work can no longer be doubted. If Xabi finally replaces Anclotti to coach a big team like Real Madrid, it will be good news for everyone because Xabi is a suitable coach to replace Anclotti.

Personally, I prefer to see Xabi wins some titles with Leverkusen first before he moves to Real Madrid. Xabis must prove that he is quite capable to manage Real Madrid. Winning some trophies will be a strong proof of his quality as a coach. But if he moves to Real Madrid before winning any title, I think it is not a really wise decision for his career.

A few days ago I read the news that Leipzig was very optimistic about the arrival of Eljif Elmas, but about the unfinished contract I also don't know. It is reported that Napoli will receive a fee of €25 million in compensation. Elmas is currently in the final stages of recovery from a recent hamstring injury, but it is expected he will be fit again by the end of the calendar year. Latest news from Il Corriere dello Sport, Elmas could join his new teammates as early as January 2 at Leipzig's winter training camp in La Manga, Spain. However, regarding the news about Eljif Elmas canceling his trip to Leipzig due to lack of funds, I have not received accurate information.

Xabi Alonso is regarded as a legend at Real Madrid for achieving great success with the club as he won many important trophies with with the club during his playing days and has now grown to be one of the current best young managers in Europe. His record with Bayer Leverkusen is just too intimidating for a young manager of his experience and that's why he's monitored by Real Madrid management for potential replacement of Carlo Ancelotti who will leave the club after the end of the current season.

The current squad of Real are majorly of young stars who if given the chance, will flourish under Xabi Alonso. As a manager that have the picture and mentality of Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso will make a good manager for Real Madrid and I'm very optimistic that the club manager Fiorentino Perez will do everything possible to bring him to Santiago Bernabeu next summer

Of course, many of us want to see how consistent Leverkusen will be this season because so far they have managed to sit at the top of the standings for a time and will they continue to be at the top of the standings. Leverkusen will compete again in January after they managed to close the match against Bochum with a big win. Xabi Alonso is increasingly confident that he will be able to bring Leverkusen to become champions this season because he is quite skilled at assembling a team to maintain their consistency to continue to get points in the matches they play.
I will also see the good performance of Bayern Munich who want to return to leading the standings. Can Tuchel do that considering he has many great players in their team?  Indeed, the difference in points is not too far from Leverkusen, but it is very difficult to expect that the opponents faced by Leverkusen will be able to beat them.

Just like Xavi at Barcelona, Xabi Alonso will be a sweet code at Real Madrid; yes, he’s one of the few football players who’s succeeded as coaches. Yes, Zidane’s shoes might be too big for him to fill but I trust he’ll set a positive standard and keep raising the bar as a Madridsta and that’s what this young Madrid team needs. Especially with talks of Ancelotti leaving soon, I think Xabi will be a perfect replacement and it’ll be a win win for both his pocket and the club and players because he’ll be able to groom up these boys just like the way he’s doing with Leverkusen.

 Leverkusen will be at the end of this whole tale because they might not just lose out in Alonso but also on most key players and this is one major reason they’ve to try to win a title this season at least for tge fans before bowing out of the club and so as to increase the club’s financial strength, though it’ll be heavy on the club when it loses both coach and most quality players. So I think they should start searching for replacements like suitable replacements else it’ll be danger for the team next season.

No, Xabi Alonso will never be the same as the Xavi who is currently coaching Barcelona, Xavi got it all he had the perfect squad but this season they failed they couldn't play well enough.
Even though this happened because several players were injured, great coach will always be able to make the best of the situation and conditions.
Meanwhile, Xabi himself started from scratch, he built Leverkusen into really strong team from the bottom and just look at how Leverkusen has developed in the last few seasons, Leverkusen can really perform well while under Xabi control.
When Xabi was with Real Madrid, it was hoped that he could make Real Madrid the same as Leverkusen, where they performed well and were able to be at the top in every competition they participated in.

Maybe Leverkusen will be very busy later because they have to find replacement coach who might be on par with Xabi.
Well, that what Xabi must give to Leverkusen and of course everyone hopes for Leverkusen big achievements at the end of his career as Leverkusen coach if he will replace Ancelotti in the near future.

[bering]

I understand your point but as I said before the Bundesliga and the Premier League are quite different. Darmstadt is still quite weak because they don't have good players to compete in the Bundesliga and the limited strength they have will make it quite difficult to compete or get out of the relegation zone. We'll see how Darmstadt play in the next few matches and whether they can win or suffer another defeat.

Their next matches will face Dortmund, Frankfurt and Union Berlin so it is certain that they will miss the opportunity to get points. So it will be quite difficult for Darmstadt to get out of the relegation zone because they face much stronger teams in the next few matches, the opportunity to get points is possible after these three matches and I am also still quite pessimistic.

Difficult for Darmstadt as promotion team in  Bundesliga for first season in highest level competition, 16 matches with 2 won, 4 draw and 10 losses is poor achievement make dropped to relegation position standings. Face difficult for three matches later against Dortmund, Frankfurt and Union Berlin seems difficult for Darmstadt get three points and keep away their points from regelation zone. Not only three strong teams for upcoming match, Darmstadt will face Bayern Leverkusen and likely its not easy for them how to out from relegation zone and keep existing their level on Bundesliga competition.
I am not really pessimistic with Darmstadt performance although drop to relegation zone but get benefit with fewest difference points from other relegation teams FC Koln and Mainz have the same points with Darmstadt then three points left from Union Berlin on 15t position standings.

Relegation zone indeed very interesting to watched because the teams such as Darmstadt, Koln, Mainz and Union Berlin will be hard struggle to avoiding that zone but indeed this a bit unpredictable because Darmstadt, Koln, and Mainz has equal points so a bit hard to predict which team will be relegated early this season but if we talking about Darmstadt i think it's hard for them to bounce back especially with their current condition because just like i said before they have worst records in Bundesliga as the team with the most conceded goals

Darmstadt is not in the comfortable situation because they really required points to improved their position on league standings and after break next month Darmstadt will facing several strong teams just like Dortmund, Frankfurt and one of the strong Bundesliga champion candidate Leverkusen so i am sure Darmstadt will be very difficult to face those teams even most likely they will be lose from those matches

Can Tuchel do that considering he has many great players in their team?  Indeed, the difference in points is not too far from Leverkusen, but it is very difficult to expect that the opponents faced by Leverkusen will be able to beat them.

a very strong team will occasionally experience a decline in performance and fall from the top of the standings and Leverkusen current position is very dangerous when they are very strong, they perform optimally without looking at the difference in points for the teams below them and continue to maintain the top of the standings and in the end some players feel tired and physically weak experience decreased performance. remember, Bayern Munich is a big team that has dominated the bundesliga since decades of decline and Leverkusen could also experience the same thing.

on the one hand, we have to remember Tuchel strategy in the previous season. Dortmund was at the top of the standings. Bayern Munich under him appeared slowly but still had a close point difference and when towards the end of the season Bayern Munich was able to overtake Dortmund.
that's why I say Leverkusen position is very dangerous as long as it doesn't provide a big point difference Bayern Munich can shift it when the end of the season approaches.

As a manager that have the picture and mentality of Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso will make a good manager for Real Madrid and I'm very optimistic that the club manager Fiorentino Perez will do everything possible to bring him to Santiago Bernabeu next summer

Xabi Alonso is indeed the best young manager in Europe at the moment, even though he is still young but like coaches who have a lot of experience, we can see the achievements that Xabi Alonso achieved while he was a player and joined a big club, he always achieved results which is good, so it is not surprising that his coaching at the moment is very skilled and looks like he is playing with the best European clubs. This is what attracted the interest of Real Madrid who want to appoint him as Carlo Ancloti replacement coach.

Yes, it's true that the Real Madrid squad is much better than the Leverkusen squad. If we looking at the current situation, Leverkusen is still quite stable with a squad that is usually at Leverkusen. What if Xabi Alonso trains Real Madrid, which has a more capable squad? of course Xabi Alonso will achieve success with Real Madrid and will probably get more than 1 title in 1 season, I really look forward to Xabi Alonso coaching a club like Real Madrid after all this will also make Xabi Alonso a successful coach if he trains a big club and is able to wins title.

Although there have been no official confirmation to the fact that Xabi is currently the best youngest Coach in the whole of Europe but then by his results and performance so far, he appears to be one which is currently not in doubt and I must commend how well he has done with a team that wasn't expected to do this much because of the quality of their players.

Achieving such heights with an average team as Leverkusen which have now turned out a big team, means if he is in charge of a bigger team with a better squad he should do well but then contrarily it's possible if he goes to a big team that has got big players and big names such as Madrid, these big names/players may not give much cooperation like did others in the small team he did coached and achieved much, but all things been equal if they cooperate well with him then his success is sure, a team like Madrid will sure pose some challenges to him but his ability to be able to get pass those challenges and get good results will make him a world class coach.

[QueenVera]

No, Xabi Alonso will never be the same as the Xavi who is currently coaching Barcelona, Xavi got it all he had the perfect squad but this season they failed they couldn't play well enough.
Even though this happened because several players were injured, great coach will always be able to make the best of the situation and conditions.

Well, that what Xabi must give to Leverkusen and of course everyone hopes for Leverkusen big achievements at the end of his career as Leverkusen coach if he will replace Ancelotti in the near future.

Comparing Xabi and Xavi based on their performances with their respective teams won't be fair because these teams weren't on the same level. Leverkusen when Xabi took over had to start from scratch to build up to where they are now but Barcelona has more advantages and quality squad but Xavi failed to capitalize on his assets.
.
 So far Xabi has been a good boss and his methods have worked perfectly for Leverkusen. One would wonder how he managed to put up such feat for the team considering the spot he picked them from. It's one quality that can definitely be found in a good manager. Leverkusen have been impressive in all rounds and it's surprising that they're now better than some already grounded teams. It only means that Xabi has a unique managing quality which can be of essence in bigger teams too.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Difficult for Darmstadt as promotion team in  Bundesliga for first season in highest level competition, 16 matches with 2 won, 4 draw and 10 losses is poor achievement make dropped to relegation position standings. Face difficult for three matches later against Dortmund, Frankfurt and Union Berlin seems difficult for Darmstadt get three points and keep away their points from regelation zone. Not only three strong teams for upcoming match, Darmstadt will face Bayern Leverkusen and likely its not easy for them how to out from relegation zone and keep existing their level on Bundesliga competition.

Promoted teams will find it much more difficult to compete with other teams in the Bundesliga because perhaps in terms of experience and the quality of their players they are quite behind the quality of other players. Darmstadt qualified for the main league with players who are not so strong so it will be quite difficult for them to compete to survive in the Bundesliga. But even so we need to see how Darmstadt can play in the second half of the season and if they can be consistent then there is some hope of getting out of the relegation zone.

Darmstadt maybe have not very good players but they mostly act as a team and they have shown that they can make a struggle other teams.
The places are very close together on the last teams on table and the ranks can quickly change with 2 wins or lose games.

In terms of quality it might be much more difficult for Darmstadt to beat Dortmund and I also don't see the match ending in a draw with the quality of players available. So realistically I see Darmstadt's chances in the next three matches will be much more difficult to get points because they face much stronger teams.

[Godday]

Yes, it's true that the Real Madrid squad is much better than the Leverkusen squad. If we looking at the current situation, Leverkusen is still quite stable with a squad that is usually at Leverkusen. What if Xabi Alonso trains Real Madrid, which has a more capable squad? of course Xabi Alonso will achieve success with Real Madrid and will probably get more than 1 title in 1 season, I really look forward to Xabi Alonso coaching a club like Real Madrid after all this will also make Xabi Alonso a successful coach if he trains a big club and is able to wins title.

A coach will be able to bring out the best potential from a club if the club has players and a style of play that suits the coach. That doesn't mean that if you are very great as a coach at a club, it doesn't necessarily mean that you will be even greater if you coach a club with higher quality players. There are many factors such as the coach's approach to the players or how the coach manages the existing squad to be able to play with the expected tactics. I agree that Xabi is a great young coach at the moment but if he were to coach Real Madrid then it would be a different challenge.

[asriloni]

No, Xabi Alonso will never be the same as the Xavi who is currently coaching Barcelona, Xavi got it all he had the perfect squad but this season they failed they couldn't play well enough.

Leverkusen when Xabi took over had to start from scratch to build up to where they are now but Barcelona has more advantages and quality squad but Xavi failed to capitalize on his assets.

Xabi was building the club from the bottom and i can remember that correctly if xabi was building it when leverkusen was almost getting relegated. It's very different compared to the barcelona when xavi was building it from the top.
There was no a lot of challenges being passed by xavi to build his current club. Barcelona was not the best, but it's also able providing some great players for xavit o build his own club. This is the main problem owned by them all.
Im not saying that xabi was better than him but the fact is said that if xabi has passet a lot of obstacles during the process to build his club rather tha xavi.

So far Xabi has been a good boss and his methods have worked perfectly for Leverkusen. One would wonder how he managed to put up such feat for the team considering the spot he picked them from. It's one quality that can definitely be found in a good manager. Leverkusen have been impressive in all rounds and it's surprising that they're now better than some already grounded teams. It only means that Xabi has a unique managing quality which can be of essence in bigger teams too.

So true, this is why leverkusen was also in the same level as bayern munich. There are so many things are going on with him in leverkusen. It has become the start place for xabi to continue his career as a coach.
No doubt that even jose has been also telling us the club if xabi will become another great coach in the future. The ability to push the relegation team to perform like the winning team is so amazing.
It's rarely owned by any coaches in the football.

[Strongkored]

No doubt that even jose has been also telling us the club if xabi will become another great coach in the future. The ability to push the relegation team to perform like the winning team is so amazing.
It's rarely owned by any coaches in the football.

I remember hearing how much Jose Mourinho could be said to admire this young coach and predicted that he would become one of the successful coaches in the future, considering that he played in several clubs coached by quite successful coaches so that Xabi Alonso could be said to be quite rich in strategy and we can see how he was able to bring his squad so far into a team that is very consistent and can quickly recover when they experience unfavorable results such as a draw so that they become a team that can always ensure themselves to get points. After successfully holding strong opponents Bayern Munich and Stuttgart to a draw, in the eighteenth week they will face Leipzig. If Bayer Leverkusen can face this tough match well, Bayer Leverkusen will have more opportunities to become Bundesliga champions.

[Weawant]

A coach will be able to bring out the best potential from a club if the club has players and a style of play that suits the coach. That doesn't mean that if you are very great as a coach at a club, it doesn't necessarily mean that you will be even greater if you coach a club with higher quality players. There are many factors such as the coach's approach to the players or how the coach manages the existing squad to be able to play with the expected tactics. I agree that Xabi is a great young coach at the moment but if he were to coach Real Madrid then it would be a different challenge.

I agree with you,  most persons thinks that coaching Madrid where there are some good quality players would be even better but then they fail to understand that there are factors that may surround his career in Madrid which were not there at Leverkusen so it isn't a form of certainty that he will do better at Madrid.

The players at Madrid may not give off same cooperation as the players he did worked with at Leverkusen, the tactics he used at Leverkusen may not work on the Madrid squad, the list is just endless but then his ability to cope and bring up a better strategy which helps the team is what will truly define him, it's very possible he might just be good with smaller team, helping them grow nd becoming formidable but may turn out bad managing teams who are bigger already, he can definitely explore greater heights in his career using the small teams but then it's good he is yet to make known any decisions about his next move.
