They made millions of new fans round the world, what a story 😊
Millions😂
For Bayer 04 Leverkusen to gain that much new Fans....it will take more than one season of domination.
Xabi Alonso will eventually leave....Florian Wirtz will eventually play at FC Bayern München. Boniface and Frimpong will have literally free choice to pick a Top Five Club. Stanicic is only there on loan from FC Bayern München.
Leverkusen will have to accomplish something way more impressive than one 'freak of nature ' season....they can win the triple....but can they win a Title next year? Can they hold on to their Top players with contract extensions? Can they get far in the Champions League?
Or will they end like any other Bundesliga Club that dared to provoke and challenge the domination of a ruthless FC Bayern München?
@@RaydensherajUnlike Dortmund Leverkusen are financially stable and are ambitious like Xabi Alonso wouldn't have stayed if he knew he was gonna lose half his Team.
@@Raydensheraj They were always a top team in the Bundesliga, always around 4-6 and they have the money to sustain a great team.
You should look from season to season, some of their players are also 30+ like Xhaka, but at least for one more season they will remain just the same.
And Leverkusen played CL finals before, remember the infamous Zidane volley?
So talking about them like another Leicester City is extremly disrespectfull and shows a lack of Bundesliga knowledge.
But to answer your question, Bayern will bounce back, if not next season it will be the season after
Granit Xhaka left Arsenal and is about to become an Invincible in the Bundesliga
But Granit Xhaka was already good in the Bundesliga. He was a Gladbach player.
Once upon a time he was a BOTTLER‼️🙄😆
@@Samelamersthat was ages ago dude‼️😉
But is not like Arsenal is doing bad at the Premier. They might win the league if they win out! And EPL right now is way more competitive than Bundesliga. Three horse race for the EPL title right now going down the wire!!!
@@nikolaivista920 Prem not that competitive compared to the bundesliga, Man city will win it again. Plus Man city did not even play their game yet. You need to know ball cuz. Moreover, Bayern barely broke a sweat against Arsenal in the UCL.
Xhaka on another level, especially in that game vs West Ham he was on fire.
Needs a film/documentary. This is rare.
Leverkusen it’s the miracle team, the amount of late goals they have it’s insane.
Big Up Granit Xhaka!!!! I'm really pleased that he's doing well at Leverkusen and I hope they go invincible, that's an enormous achievement!!!!
It's wishful thinking, but I really want the team's senior players to realize that what they're going through is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and that they can build a legendary legacy at this club if they all decide to stay together. Obviously, they'll earn less money, but I don't want what happened to Klopp's Borussia to happen to them.
Stevie said Leverkusen "are in dangerous waters" after winning the league and could lose a game. I predicted 2D3W from their last 5 league games. It's happening just as I predicted. Stevie is just salty that Liverpool missed out on Xabi and were knocked out of Europe.
They literally lost if it wasn't for the extra time your salty they listen to stevies predictions and not yours 😂
@@sirtakeiteazibut added time is part of the game though.
And due to the scuffle that happened, the amount of time was justifiable.
So it's a draw because BvB and their school yard defending not added time.
Relax, predator
@@AB-jg1ny but what BVB did on home ground only one goal ? they should have make 3 goals. How BVB face PSG is great concern after this match. if they could not beat leverkusan they will not pass PSG.
@@rajeshparab1968 the only threat PSG truly have is Mbappe. Getting past their midfield and defense should not be the problem. Which was exactly the issue vs Leverkusen.
I’m just here for Archie’s clothing choices! 😂
I couldn't hear Xhaka because Archie's jacket is so loud!
As much as the praise that is being heaped onto Xabi Alonso is well-deserved, I wonder why nobody notices the absolutely outstanding work by Bayer's medical department. Bayer have had practically no injuries all season, just imagine. Even Victor Boniface's pulled muscle happened when he was with the Nigerian national team. It is hard to overappreciate the contribution of Bayer's medical staff when you look at how the players keep going and going until the 90th minute and beyond when the opponents have long run out of steam - and this week after week after week.
There have been some injuries here and there but generally it’s been good yeah.
Absolutely..
Good point there
Alonso rotates all the time. Thats a big factor.
@@armingleiner5292 That's true, but of course other coaches rotate too, with lesser success. Just look how Bayern Munich has been battling with injuries all season. Besides, Xabi doesn't really rotate completely. His key players Xhaka, Grimaldo, Wirtz ecc. play all matches, even if maybe only 30 minutes.
Don’t say this publicly. Bayern might pay a transfer fee for them 💀💀
We already were the first club to pay a transfer fee for a manager, our players get injured a lot… why not medical staff?
(I am a Bayern fan, but this is a joke)
As an Arsenal fan. I miss him
Bayer Neverlusen ❤
*Bayer not Bayern
Speaks like Cristiano, looks like Henry Cavill. The superman of football
The More Incredible Thing is that
Archie’s Jacket 🧥‼️
Leverkusen started a new era of modern football.
Archie is celebrating spring with his jacket.
Archie looks like he wanted to take s**t based on the look on his face when they were answering😂😂😂😂
He wears it 4 seasons‼️🙄😆
Pep, Xabi, Unai and Mikel... what's cooking in Spain 😇🤔🤩 👏
More like San Sebastian neighbourhood what's cooking (Except Pep)
Xavi also
Luis enrique
I think it has been obvious for some years now that they do something the right way in Spain when it comes to form managers. I think it is the national football associations that set up the courses to get licences. Once you have a your national professional leagues filled with good homegrown managers, the next generation of managers will already start at a higher level than elsewhere. For me, Spanish managers are ahead of German or Italians at the moment. Enlgish managerial talents do not get a chance, as the top two tiers are so filthy rich, they go and buy managers abroad
Mikel🤡
LETS GO BAYER MAKE HISTORY!!!
@@nikkinitinegara7589 no way insane the amount of black magic produce this season alone absurd.
Why xhaka voice sounds like cr7😬😬😬
Dont be a 1 season wonder champions like leicester or Napoli, consistency is key 🤣🤣🤣
Will depend on who leavs the club
@@mikeserds2333 Carro already walked back his ridiculous statement that Wirtz's price tag was at least 150 million. Any PL club would've paid that no questions asked. Xabi probably immediately called him and Carro corrected that Wirtz is not for sale for next season.
I think for the next season it looks pretty well. Xabi stays and I am convinced most of the key players except perhaps one or two will stay as well. But after that it could become hard for Leverkusen to keep their coach who could considering the job at madrid as the successor of Ancelotti. And when Xabi leaves who knows what happens. Maybe some of the key players are going to leave as well. But lets see.
@@Tommy-pn3rh money is a very funny convincing thing. Not everybody is Jamie Vardy. Even he got persuaded with money to stay. Leceister got picked apart the season after they won the league. No doubt, Bayer will be the same. Loyalty is pretty rare these days. After all, its a job and non of them really supported Leverkusen from young. So, attachment is not a thing.
We can look at Arsenal after the Invincible as well. got picked apart ever since. Even the legend, such as Henry and Viera nevermind Ashley Cole bounce as soon as they got the chance.
In conclusion, very few teams can keep the crew together after success, and mainly it's due to their financial status rather than history. Even Mane from Liverpool walk away, Countinho, they had to throw giant stack of money to Salah to beg him to stay. Some say, pay them what they deserve, but some teams just can't.
@@AB-jg1ny bro is so salty😂😂
When did Mustafi become a commentator?
Why are people always have negative thought?
As i wrote before even if you take lead against leverkusan you have to be very very alert till last whistle blow. Leverkusan can make goal at last second hook or by crook . They do in almost every match and its only club i have seen , i would like to see them how they perform against man city, real madrid, psg like clubs
u saw it against Bayern they had no chance, but yes Real would be intersting maybe we see that in the Supercup
oh here comes the jinx
Time for Bayer Corp. to offer Alonso 10% to 20% of its shares as a new salary package....
He really sounds like Cr7
Insane. I only know Grimaldo and Xhaka in that team
😂
I only know xavi alonso 😅
You don't know Florian Wirtz?
@@wogna96 Honestly no. I should watch more
VfB Stuttgart to beat Leverkusen next week.
Neverlusen👊
Next season is the real test… meanwhile enjoy!
beeing Bundesliga Champions is already crazy and unbeaten possible. so what they wanna test? get less draws next season maybe 😂
Unfortunate no one is challenging them cuz I think they would play at a higher level but hope too invincible s!
only two cl-semifinalist in same league....
Referee really tried to help Leverkusen. After being down 1-0
Ten minutes extra time to give a chance to equalize
Next game they got to do it without Xhaka tho. He's banned.
Arsenal's new away kit?
His voice sounds like ronaldo
Is it just me or this dude looks and speak like CR7?
There beating villa n wining Europa league
Villa is not even in Europa league lmao
@@UnverifiedNoob which league then?
England only playin in the Conference League my friend. 😅
Arsenal life. Go undefeated and not win again lol
Best team in the world right now ❤
45 games unbeaten in all competitions is insane. They only need five games away for breaking Arsenal's 49 games unbeaten record!
They will lose to Roma away in Europa League.
Stuttgart will defeats Bayer Leverkusen
Thy will lose 1…no way go unbeaten
In your dream
Leverkusen should pray they don't face Madrid or else they'd be facing 15 players with Mafia gang behind the scenes
Lol nice try… ask leverkusen about Real Madrid and Zidane, they know them very well.. 💀
Why you crying in every post 🤣🤣
Let's all laugh at barca and this fangirl 🤣
@eL-Ral 😂😂😂😂😂😂
If it wasn't for Casillas and Zidane in 2002, Leverkusen would be UCL Champions. Real Madrid were overwhelmed that game.
Xhaka just had to gloat and jinx it
watch them get a loss next week
