Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

There is no need to be negative about Leverkusen's future in the season. Just because they lost a game it doesn't prove anything. It is so early in the season. There are tons of games to be played. Just relax and enjoy the games. 

There are good and bad effects to the Leverkusen. The good thing is they have no duty to defend their record. The bad thing is they are crushed by their first loss since last season.

But i take it more positively, they can enjoy the upcoming game without a target to defend their record. It helps them to enjoy the game better than when they have a burden to defend their record.

Besides it is better to see them losing finally honestly.    Of course I was very glad to see them putting an end to Bayern Munich's unreal title streak in the Bundesliga. But I don't just want to see seasons ending without a title race either. If Kompany's Bayern Munich and Nuri Şahin's Dortmund stay strong, we can watch a lovely rivalry. I know Leipzig also started well but they aren't very good at keeping consistent you know.

There was no a better than than seeing a win streak more than a decade being stopped by them. I really appreciate that.

Leipzig lacked consistency. But, they destroyed Leverkusen's unbeaten record. So, they must be seen as a strong team.

Is it a duty to defend the unbeaten record? I think it is not a duty. It is not a must to repeat the unbeaten record in the last season. I'm very sure Xabi Alonso never tries to defend it because it is something really difficult to do. But I'm surprised that Leverkusen is quite fast to lose the points, they lost 3 points in matchday 2. Losing points will be always bad, they looked unconvincingly to win again the league title.

But i take it more positively, they can enjoy the upcoming game without a target to defend their record. It helps them to enjoy the game better than when they have a burden to defend their record.

Even they won the match, they will always target to win every single match. There will be no change with Leverkusen target, they must expect to win every match. They actually too enjoy the match, they made too many opportunities. Unfortunately Leverkusen show infective match, they wasted too many chances of scoring goals.

Leipzig lacked consistency. But, they destroyed Leverkusen's unbeaten record. So, they must be seen as a strong team.

Leipzig always finished the season in the top 4 (UCL zone). I don't think this team is lack of consistency. Sure Leipzig is a strong team in Bundesliga, it is actually not very surprising to see Leipzig beating Leverkusen.

There is a difference in our talk this season, because previously I always saw a lot of talk about Borussia Dortmund, but this season I see a decline and more focus on Leverkusen who holds the status of defending champion in the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund was actually the first club that was believed to be able to break the dominance of Bayern Munich, but in reality they could not do it. This season will be a challenge for them to show again that they are a club worth considering. I want to see what they will do to make all that happen, or they will feel normal because what they prioritize is business that must continue to run. If they think like that, then I really regret it, because they are a club that has great potential.

Every team's performance is not the same every season, there are some changes.  And if they have aggi, it doesn't matter that much because it depends on the teams how they perform and what they don't.  Leverkusen's performance really suits him because they are hard-working and strong, if they weren't, it would have gone to any other team.  But at this time this right goes to them.  Look, there are teams with better performance than Bayern, but if they perform and play like Bayern, it is a little difficult to beat them because their players don't take time to change their direction and take the lost match to themselves.  It was not in their power to defeat them.  Now if they don't think about it then it will be good because they will think for their win then good otherwise they will play for something else then they will really regret it.

Dortmund are the engineers of their own downfall. I can remember those years when Dortmund were the only team giving Bayern Munich tough competition each season but those glory days are slowly disappearing because Dortmund turned their priority to be a business oriented club and selling out every top talent they get for huge profits not minding the competition ahead of them. Leverkusen have now stepped up to become the contender for Bayern Munich. They are focused on competing and winning trophies.

The Bundesliga have changed totally from last season after Bayern Leverkusen where able to win and collect the title of the Bundesliga form Bayern Munich who have been winning it for the past decade. It is good to see a worthy contender for the league title and not just one team winning it over again. Bayern Leverkusen have given hope to all other teams especially the top ones that always try to be competent competitors, they may as well try to win this time around and we going to see a more interesting Bundesliga than it use to be.

Is defending a title some kind of burden? I don’t think so and if they feel they have a title defend, it will give them more hope and try their best to be at the top of the standings while prioritising every match and winning them. There must be a reason for a driven force in a team, and if that of the Bayern Leverkusen’s is the retaining of the title, that’s should be their watchword and target for the season.
