Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Leviathan.007]

Xabi Alonso will have to maintain last season's performance if he wants to still be held in high regard in Bayer Leverkusen. Club management don't really give a damn about your past performance because they want current results. It will be difficult for Leverkusen to replicate the unbeaten run next season but they should at least make a mark in the UCL League next season.

Leverkusen's performance has been phenomenal this season. They don't have a squad with star players but they managed to get an unbeaten record in the domestic league and almost became the first team in history to win the invisible treble. And it will be very difficult to repeat the same results next season. Leverkusen's defeat to Atalanta in the UEL final has exposed the weaknesses of Leverkusen's current game. To be honest, Alonso's tactics are really great but it seems like the players can't implement them fully. Correct me if I'm wrong. At that time Leverkusen often used tactics by placing many players on one side so that the opponent was really under pressure. But then Atalanta used high press man-to-man marking which made Leverkusen lose in the UEL final.

Gian Piero Gasperini knows that Leverkusen does not have strong players one on one so this exposes Leverkusen's weaknesses. I think if Alonso manages to improve this aspect next season then Leverkusen might be able to shock Europe once again.

One good thing about Leverkusen is about the good performance they have in this team. In fact, Leverkusen was not in the situation to beat teams like Bayern Munich and even win the Bundesliga title and if I am not mistaken, Leverkusen won the Bundesliga title for the second time in their history which is a great step forward for them.
Leverkusen didn't even spend too much money like Bayern Munich but they mostly won the game because of the amazing teamwork they have in their team thanks to their coach.

Ofcourse,this is transfer window,every team is looking at adding players to their squad, Leverkusen did well last season,but that isn't enough reason not to sign single player or never sign a player at all,just saying,but if Leverkusen does not sign players,it will be difficult for them to win the league again especially now that Bayern Munich have started signing players that they assume can take them to the level they want.We will 'all see If Leverkusen will be able to retain their tittle or they will let it slip  away from them.

Retaining the title is not an easy task and those that do that usually pass a lot of tough times in their way to keep the flag of the club flying high. Bayern Leverkusen can still defend the title even without signing any players, they need to be very observant of other teams and easily adjust their strategy to the one they’ll be using against them by their opponent. If you can counter everything from your opponent and strike back later when they’re weak, it becomes very easier for you to remain in the winning side of the game.

I won’t be putting too much emphasis on Bayern Leverkusen to win the trophy for the second time in a row, but rather let them see how they can strengthen their team to be amongst the top four of the league and always get a spot in the champions league. They can be improving in that direction for the meantime if at all the title league contender or winning it won’t be consistent.

[TelolettOm]

Yes, based on news reported from several sources, Hummels will indeed leave Dortmund as a free agent. This news has been confirmed and is on the @FabrizioRomano account.
......

This is confirmed news and not that big of a surprise I think. What I didn't know is how fierce the argument was between Hummels and Terzic, but the media got it wrong when they first said that Hummels won the fight, and then hours later they had to realize that not only Terzic is going to leave the club, but Hummels too. So it made no sense after all. Nobody won any fight actually.

Yes, it is related to the violent confrontation between Hummels and Terzic in the week of the UCL final. Maybe because Hummels is a senior player there and really understands various things, then he criticized Terzic regarding the tactics he had prepared. hemm, this was quite exciting at that time. In fact, it is a very decisive event.

But never mind, the point is that no one wins or loses. yes, both of them left Dortmund. And now, Nuri Şahin as the new coach of Drotmund has been officially confirmed and they are getting started with several players to get in the transfer market later.

Xabi Alonso knows what must be done to support the performance of his club next season so that it does not fall behind other competitors in the big European competition Champions League and remains competitive in the race for the Bundesliga title. If Leverkusen does not recruit the players it needs, Leverkusen will have difficulty competing with top clubs. Above all, recruiting great players requires expensive transfer fees and like Leverkusen they can't do that because they have just tasted the Bundesliga title so their finances are not as big as other big clubs to be able to recruit expensive players.

But Xabi Alonso is a coach who can see potential players and choose players who will suit his coaching style and can hone the player's abilities so that they can become good players for Leverkusen. The most important thing is that the management entrusts everything to Xabi Alonso in terms of recruiting the players they need. If supported in this matter, the coach can improve Leverkusen's good performance. It is not easy for the coach to maintain his club's good performance if it is not supported by other good players.

Bayer Leverkusen will still be that strong team we all saw last season when the league started, Leverkusen has good players that will make the team performance look good like the way it was before, Leverkusen is the kind of team that doesn’t sell their players, the team didn’t sell any of their players and that is what every team that has a good season with their players should do, Leverkusen is still going around to buy more talented players, Xabi Alonso has made Leverkusen sign one of the best midfielders from Girona and Girona sell the player and with the way I’m seeing Girona team, they will suffer next season because they are selling out their players after having a good season.

Xabi Alonso will try his best to make the Leverkusen team strong even when another coach comes to the team he will know that he has done a good job in the team, Leverkusen will never forget Xabi Alonso, in fact even football will never forget him because he’s now part of the best coach in the history of football, having a season unbeaten is not a small thing, but after next season I don’t think Xabi Alonso will be Leverkusen coach because many teams are interested in him but Real Madrid is the favorite and he will surely be a Real Madrid coach.

Yes yes I also think it is interesting that Bayern Munich who used to be best team in Bundesliga had hard time keeping up with Leverkusen this season. They need to change their strategy and team lineup especially with new coach. Maybe Kompany will bring new ideas and excitement to team but it might take time for everything to come together. Usually new coaches do not lead their teams to big wins right away. But I hope Kompany will be different and lead Bayern Munich to a great season next year. It will be fun to watch how he changes the team and competes against Leverkusen and other strong teams.

Of course, the presence of new coach will indeed lead Bayern Munich to make several changes in the strategy of the team lineup and also the playing style, each coach will have their own characteristics in game and they will always use what they consider appropriate and can improve performance.
In fact, this change of coach has made most fans doubt the quality of Kompany performance, but after all, all of this is choice and decision from Bayern Munich team officials and hopefully what is joint decision can really result in every success.
But Bayern Munich is little different because they have quite strong support and already have quite lot of great players.
This is what will make it easier for Kompany to achieve success and of course he just needs to find the right strategy and style of play to be able to match every team in the competition next season or even surpass it.

For example, Leverkusen where Xabi needed one season to show significant improvement in performance, hopefully Kompany can do the same thing or be faster.

Yes, of course defending the title will not be an easy task if Leverkusen does not bring in new players to strengthen the club's performance in the coming season.
Meanwhile, other clubs in the Bundesliga are looking for talented players to recruit to get stronger performance and if Leverkusen only keeps old players without bringing in more talented players, of course it will not be easy to defend the Bundesliga title.

Bayern Munich is one of the toughest opponents that Leverkusen will face and if Leverkusen does not make a few changes, Bayern Munich will definitely win back the Bundesliga title because currently Bayern Munich is making big changes to every line that has low productivity.

After a club is successful in winning a title in the previous season, usually the ambition will be bigger and make coaches and players dream of getting another title in the coming season, but Leverkusen was in doubt because currently many clubs are improving their respective clubs to can try to get the title because he is motivated by Leverkusen.
The competition in the upcoming season is likely to be stronger than the previous season.

[Farma]

Bayer Leverkusen will still be that strong team we all saw last season when the league started, Leverkusen has good players that will make the team performance look good like the way it was before, Leverkusen is the kind of team that doesn’t sell their players, the team didn’t sell any of their players and that is what every team that has a good season with their players should do, Leverkusen is still going around to buy more talented players, Xabi Alonso has made Leverkusen sign one of the best midfielders from Girona and Girona sell the player and with the way I’m seeing Girona team, they will suffer next season because they are selling out their players after having a good season.

Xabi Alonso will try his best to make the Leverkusen team strong even when another coach comes to the team he will know that he has done a good job in the team, Leverkusen will never forget Xabi Alonso, in fact even football will never forget him because he’s now part of the best coach in the history of football, having a season unbeaten is not a small thing, but after next season I don’t think Xabi Alonso will be Leverkusen coach because many teams are interested in him but Real Madrid is the favorite and he will surely be a Real Madrid coach.

For next season Bayer Leverkusen will definitely make changes to the team, although not significantly, but this must be done to maintain the team's performance or even make the team stronger, especially since next season Bayer Leverkusen will be competing on the Champions League stage, of course they have to make the team far away. even better so that we can compete fiercely.

Regarding whether it will be better, worse or able to maintain the team's performance, I think everything is still possible next season, but I believe that if Xabi Alonos is still the coach of Bayer Leverkusen, there is a big possibility that they can still be at the top of the Bundesliga standings for the title competition because Bayer Leverkusen's current progress or success cannot be separated from the big role of Xabi Alonso as their coach.

This season alone, many teams are interested in bringing in Xabi Alonso, but he has decided to stay with Bayer Leverkusen, but for next season, if Xabi Alonso is able to do the same thing, of course there will be more offers coming and there is a big possibility that he will take on the challenge. bigger of course with a bigger team later.

[MAAManda]

I find it a bit odd that people want Alonso to consistently produce good results (winning trophies) before he can be called a good coach. I mean, if his achievement with Leverkusen is just "lucky", then how would you judge his competitors? I guess every manager is terrible nowadays, which means a club should pick their coach randomly if that is the case. No point analyzing a coach's profile as long as they can get a bit lucky once in a while. He's probably not the next Guardiola, he won't have as much leeway with buying players, and he doesn't have to be one. Then again I guess he doesn't care what people think of him, especially if the club and the fans are happy with him.

Are you talking about Xabi Alonso or Vincent Kompany?

Xabi is a good coach so far, he managed to make a team that had never won the Bundesliga title get it even with a questionable team composition. For me, his achievements are the result of luck meeting the right time, when they won the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich & Borussia Dortmund were in chaotic form, just look at second place in the standings, is it Bayern Munich or Borussia Dortmund? no, it's Stuttgart.

There will be no more Bundesliga titles for Bayer Leverkusen in the future, no more.

[Inwestour]

Yes, it is related to the violent confrontation between Hummels and Terzic in the week of the UCL final. Maybe because Hummels is a senior player there and really understands various things, then he criticized Terzic regarding the tactics he had prepared. hemm, this was quite exciting at that time.

But never mind, the point is that no one wins or loses. yes, both of them left Dortmund. And now, Nuri Şahin as the new coach of Drotmund has been officially confirmed and they are getting started with several players to get in the transfer market later.

Humels had no right to question Terzic's authority, as an experienced player, he should have understood that bad authority in the team is worse than bad strategy on the field. Moreover, if Terzic was able to reach the Champions League final, even if it happened with great luck, he was able to achieve this, which means blaming him for wrong tactics or something else is wrong. As a result, Humels had to pay a big price for his actions, Dortmund lost an excellent coach, and Humels had to leave the team.

[TastyChillySauce00]

As of Nuri Şahin's taking over, I believe we can see a good improvement from Dortmund in the Bundesliga next season. Some will say he isn't an experienced manager and yeah it is the truth. He is very young at the same time. However as he has a big history with Dortmund as a player I believe he would know what can be better for this team to be more effective. 

I doubt Nuri will be big on Dortmund. Nuri Sahin's effectiveness as a new coach remains the major topic here, whether good or bad. Nuri has served as Terzic's assistant manager since January of this year. This is his only good track record right now. Dortmund's choice to promote him to manager raised many questions.
I can't really use his experience as a former football player at Dortmund to assess how awful or excellent Nuri's career as a head coach in Dortmund is now. I am saying this because I have witnessed former players who were unsuccessful at their clubs as a coach.

Terzic did a wonderful job in the Champions League of course. I have a big respect for that. He couldn't do the same in the Bundesliga but hopefully Nuri Şahin will improve there as well. It would be nice to see Dortmund back in the Bundesliga title competition.

I hope it will be coming true for dortmund to go back as a title contender in the upcoming season. Nuri needs to follow what terzic did last season in order to improve dortmund's performance. Nuri needs to fix the empty positions which is available now.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Xabi is a good coach so far, he managed to make a team that had never won the Bundesliga title get it even with a questionable team composition. For me, his achievements are the result of luck meeting the right time, when they won the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich & Borussia Dortmund were in chaotic form, just look at second place in the standings, is it Bayern Munich or Borussia Dortmund? no, it's Stuttgart.

There will be no more Bundesliga titles for Bayer Leverkusen in the future, no more.

Regardless of luck or not, Xabi Alonso succeeded in bringing Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga. This is an extraordinary achievement for Leverkusen and by relying on the limited strength of Xabi Alonso, he has succeeded in realizing the club's big dream. Despite the disappointing performances of Bayern Munich and Dortmund, the presence of Xabi Alonso was able to take advantage of this condition so that he succeeded in winning the Bundesliga title.

But talking about next season it will be different and I have the same belief as you because if you look at the history of the Bundesliga it will never change from the strength or dominance that Bayern Munich has. Xabi Alonso can make bigger history if he is able to present the trophy again next season, but relying on strength like now feels difficult.

[Baki202]

For next season Bayer Leverkusen will definitely make changes to the team, although not significantly, but this must be done to maintain the team's performance or even make the team stronger, especially since next season Bayer Leverkusen will be competing on the Champions League stage, of course they have to make the team far away. even better so that we can compete fiercely.

Bayer Leverkusen made serious changes this past season so we should be expecting more from them next season.. They did a great job and they will always want to work hard to keep topping That is something have noticed looking at Manchester and Madrid. they keep winning because they already know what it takes to be champions, That is the same reason why Bayer Leverkusen will want to maintain that position to keep topping. For the Champions League, for champions league they won't go that far because the League is full of experienced clubs that will use experience to defeat whomever they are playing against.
 

Regarding whether it will be better, worse or able to maintain the team's performance, I think everything is still possible next season, but I believe that if Xabi Alonos is still the coach of Bayer Leverkusen, there is a big possibility that they can still be at the top of the Bundesliga standings for the title competition because Bayer Leverkusen's current progress or success cannot be separated from the big role of Xabi Alonso as their coach.

for Bayer Leverkusen to maintain consistency during the previous season I don't think they will drop in performance this season Xabi Alonso would have been making plans for next season because is strategy would have been working for him so next season should not be a problem, and I don't see Bayer Leverkusen changing or even planning on getting a new manager, since xabi is behind the whole success.

This season alone, many teams are interested in bringing in Xabi Alonso, but he has decided to stay with Bayer Leverkusen, but for next season, if Xabi Alonso is able to do the same thing, of course there will be more offers coming and there is a big possibility that he will take on the challenge. bigger of course with a bigger team later.

clubs are after means that make things happen and I don't blame clubs that are after Bayer Leverkusen they knew his worth and what he is capable of doing even if he wants to leave am sure it won't be now he will want to stay a little longer to keep achieving great thing. the man should focus on becoming better there is no rush and if he has a good record he can even get better offers from big clubs so the goal now should be based on improvement.

[arimamib]

Xabi is a good coach so far, he managed to make a team that had never won the Bundesliga title get it even with a questionable team composition. For me, his achievements are the result of luck meeting the right time, when they won the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich & Borussia Dortmund were in chaotic form, just look at second place in the standings, is it Bayern Munich or Borussia Dortmund? no, it's Stuttgart.

There will be no more Bundesliga titles for Bayer Leverkusen in the future, no more.

Alonso was able to bring Leverkusen to make history for the first time in the Bundesliga after 120 years, Leverkusen performance and performance this season is indeed very extraordinary and even an achievement and record of a club that may be difficult for a strong team to achieve later, winning the championship trophy by going unbeaten in one Bundesliga season is not an easy thing,  Moreover, Leverkusen has not had a player who has indeed stood out in their squad since the beginning of the season, but Alonso was able to do a miracle by bringing Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga for the first time and also the DFB Pokal.

Apart from Leverkusen very consistent performance, of course we can say that this season Leverkusen is greatly helped by the decline in the performance of other teams in the Bundesliga, the revival of Leverkusen this season actually coincides with the deterioration of Bayern Munich current performance, so that indeed they do not get a relatively strong resistance in the league, next season of course we will see how Alonso and Leverkusen are able to maintain their performance like this season if Bayern Munich bounces back like the previous seasons.
 

[Mustang Shelby]

Leverkusen's performance has been phenomenal this season. They don't have a squad with star players but they managed to get an unbeaten record in the domestic league and almost became the first team in history to win the invisible treble. And it will be very difficult to repeat the same results next season. Leverkusen's defeat to Atalanta in the UEL final has exposed the weaknesses of Leverkusen's current game. To be honest, Alonso's tactics are really great but it seems like the players can't implement them fully. Correct me if I'm wrong. At that time Leverkusen often used tactics by placing many players on one side so that the opponent was really under pressure. But then Atalanta used high press man-to-man marking which made Leverkusen lose in the UEL final.

Yeah actually Bayer Leverkusen are lack of good squad and the star player, but with that they keep their performance very strong by keeping unforgeting record this season since they where able to maintain their position by remain unbeaten; which is terrible history by Leverkusen. Because this season has been so wonderful for them I'm having hope for them that next season they will perform more better and continue from where they stop this season to make sure they dominate Germany league.

Gian Piero Gasperini knows that Leverkusen does not have strong players one on one so this exposes Leverkusen's weaknesses. I think if Alonso manages to improve this aspect next season then Leverkusen might be able to shock Europe once again.

I'm very sure that Alonso will try as much as possible to fine solutions about the some players that are very weak in the team to sign new stars players which will make the the team so strong and become standard, because next season might tough them this season.

Ofcourse,this is transfer window,every team is looking at adding players to their squad, Leverkusen did well last season,but that isn't enough reason not to sign single player or never sign a player at all,just saying,but if Leverkusen does not sign players,it will be difficult for them to win the league again especially now that Bayern Munich have started signing players that they assume can take them to the level they want.We will 'all see If Leverkusen will be able to retain their tittle or they will let it slip  away from them.

Leverkusen must definitely make transfers. Of course, they have very good players, but getting through the transfer period without buying players carries a great risk because the opposing teams now know the players' nature very well. They can resist Leverkusen better. It is rumored that Real Madrid wants to transfer Wirtz. It may be very difficult for new players to replace the players leaving the team.

They can resist Leverkusen better. It is rumored that Real Madrid wants to transfer Wirtz. It may be very difficult for new players to replace the players leaving the team.

I understand this condition. The Bundesliga side will learn from Atalanta who frustrated Leverkusen with possession that could not score in the European Cup final. Atalanta was able to win 3-0.  Atalanta was able to make Leverkusen's strategy not go well. I'm sure at that time Atalanta had learned how Leverkusen worked with a pattern that worked very well in the Bundesliga. If the Leverkusen players are added, it will worsen Leverkusen's situation. In fact, they will find it difficult to defend the champion next season.

[rendravolt]

Leipzig has announced a contract extension for its coach, Marco Rose, until 2026 and this is the right step taken by management to retain him. The reason is that since being brought in in 2022, Leipzig has always appeared consistent by successfully finishing in the top four and this former Dortmund coach has not disappointed at all and he just needs to continue his current adventure in bringing Leipzig to the ladder of competition for the title.

During the 23/24 season, Leizpig only suffered 7 defeats from 34 matches and I think this is still normal even though there were several moments that they could have turned into wins. Well, let's see whether Leipzig can still maintain its performance next season and we know that this Bundesliga will be even more difficult to predict considering that Bayern Munich will no longer be able to dominate.

[Fuso.hp]

Xabi Alonso will have to maintain last season's performance if he wants to still be held in high regard in Bayer Leverkusen. Club management don't really give a damn about your past performance because they want current results. It will be difficult for Leverkusen to replicate the unbeaten run next season but they should at least make a mark in the UCL League next season.

Leverkusen's performance has been phenomenal this season. They don't have a squad with star players but they managed to get an unbeaten record in the domestic league and almost became the first team in history to win the invisible treble.

One good thing about Leverkusen is about the good performance they have in this team. In fact, Leverkusen was not in the situation to beat teams like Bayern Munich and even win the Bundesliga title and if I am not mistaken, Leverkusen won the Bundesliga title for the second time in their history which is a great step forward for them.
Leverkusen didn't even spend too much money like Bayern Munich but they mostly won the game because of the amazing teamwork they have in their team thanks to their coach.
  

Leverkusen was not in a position to beat Bayan Munich in the beginning of the season that's why this team was not that tough opponent to all the other teams but gradually when this team won one match after another everyone considered this team as a tough opponent. The biggest surprise from Leverkusen's side was that they went undefeated this season and won the league title in addition to beating Bayern Munich. The team that all the other teams did not have much plans for last season, now the big teams will plan the most with this team. Bayern Munich will certainly not want to lose the league title to this team at least this season. If Leverkusen does not want to lose the title to Bayan Munich again, Bayan Munich will have to play well from the start and not drop any points in any match to win the league title next season.

[hahay]

Leverkusen must definitely make transfers. Of course, they have very good players, but getting through the transfer period without buying players carries a great risk because the opposing teams now know the players' nature very well.

I'm sure at that time Atalanta had learned how Leverkusen worked with a pattern that worked very well in the Bundesliga. If the Leverkusen players are added, it will worsen Leverkusen's situation. In fact, they will find it difficult to defend the champion next season.

If Atalanta is able to beat Bayer Leverkusen, then playing in the Champion League which basically Bayer Leverkusen will playing against teams with better quality, then of course Bayer Leverkusen still has to bring in new players. At least, to prepare the team to be even better next season with the best possible rotation that can be done if Bayer Leverkusen brings in some new players. Although indeed, I also still recognize that Xabi Alonso will still be able to provide good results for Bayer Leverkusen next season but it seems, only limited to the domestic league. Because anyway, if they want to get good results also in the Champion League, then total rotation will be something that must be done, so they need second-tier players who also have good quality.

Well, let's see whether Leipzig can still maintain its performance next season and we know that this Bundesliga will be even more difficult to predict considering that Bayern Munich will no longer be able to dominate.

Marco Rose will be at Leipzig until 2026 and i personally thinking he deserved to gets contract extension because during this season Leipzig performance is quite consistent and they can finish at 4th place at the end of league above to Dortmund and after losing several important players such as Josko Gvardiol, Christopher Nkunku, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Konrad Laimer last summer i thought Leipzig will be unable to bounce back and lost their consistency because they have decided to sell those players above which their status at that time as the key players in Leipzig

But clearly i was wrong because Marco Rose can solved to losing those players and Leipzig is quite consistent this season and if i am not mistaken since arrived to Leipzig on September 2022 Marco Rose can give 2 trophies total to Leipzig with 1 DFB pokal and 1 Germany Super Cup and in Champion League this season Leipzig can advances to round of 16 but unfortunately they lost from Real Madrid on that stage
