This season, Bayer Leverkusen defies all predictions and rushes towards the Bundesliga title to the great dismay of Bayern Munich, 11 times champion in a row. Neverkusen, the nickname affiliated with the club for years since it did not win a title, has never lived up to its name so badly. Bayer coach Xabi Alonso is receiving all the praise for the quality of his team's play. Lothar Matthäus, legend of Bayern Munich and the Mannschaft, also used his commentary to glorify the current leaders of the championship.
“The football, the speed, the calmness with the ball… it's just fun. It reminds me of FC Barcelona with Iniesta, Xavi and Messi. For me, it's Bayer Leverkusen. For me, it is currently the strongest football team in the world. I don't want to compare them to Liverpool and Manchester City, but Leverkusen are playing the best football I've seen since the start of the season.” he confided to Interwetten. Xabi Alonso and his family couldn't have had a better compliment.
