Expectations from Bundesliga. Bayern would mostly win it again, They have arguably the best squad in Europe and I dont mean Individual Players but as a team most of the Players have been playing together for quite a long time and have the best Team Chemistry. Their squad depth means anything less than the Treble wont be considered a Great season as we saw this Year. Dortmund: I hope they will give Bayern a good fight, they have the resources, even last year they played 4 games and both teams won 2 games. In the 4 games Bayern scored 7 goals and BVB scored the same number. They were the only team to beat Real in Europe and if not for Mkhis misses might have even eliminated them. It depends on how well they cope with injuries, loss of Lewandowski and their ability to grind results against smaller teams. That has been their problem in the last 2 seasons. Klopp is one of the best in The World and though Immobile isnt Lewa, Hes still a very good buy, He was Top scorer of Serie A last season and being 24 has the potential to develop into an elite scorer, considering, Lewa was an unknown player and was turned into a goal scoring machine by Klopp. Adrian Ramos is also a good buy, he scored more than 40% of Herthas goals last season and was one of Top scorers of Buli. Ginter is the best Young CB/CDM in Germany. Gundogan is back, Jojic and Durm showed a lot of promise last season and if they manage to keep Hummels and Reus they can be contenders even for CL. Schalke: They have the best youth academy in Germany, They lost to eventual winners Barca in Youth CL semi final. Without a doubt they have the most talented youngsters in Germany, Juliun Draxler is already a household name at just 20 years of age. Max Meyer is the brightest German attacker since Mario Gotze, Leon Goretzka has already shown enough class to be called by Low for his 30 men squad for WC, He also won the Fritz Walter Medal for best U-17 player in Germany, his club teammate Meyer came 2nd. Donis Avdijaj is another promising young talent(He came 3rd after Werner and Brandt this year in U-17 category). Howedes has a brilliant WC, KPB and Huntelaar would also be there, it depends on how well do these youths intergrate with the main team. Leverkusen: After Schalke they boast of the best Youngsters in Germany, Juliun Brandt, Levin Oztunali are both tipped for greatness, they sold Can and that was a bad move, Drmic was one of Top scorers last season he will help their attack starring Hon Seung Min and Kiessling. Lars Bender will be the most important player. I still dont see them posing much threat in Europe. Wolfsburg: They have a good balanced team and have the financial resources to compete for a Top 4 finish in Buli. KDB is a Top class talent, Gustavo is their leader, Arnold is a young star with a bright future, Ricardo Rodriguez is one of the best fullbacks in the game and is being monitored by likes of United and Barca. Their top 4 finish depends on their transfer activity. Monchengladbach is the only other team that can finish in Top 4 in my opinion, Timo Werner will be the player to watch again, The best German striker since Gomez and arguably more talented. Overall: Bayern and BVB are cut above the Rest, a Fully Fit BVB can give Bayern a tough competition, but for a team that plays such a high pressing game the chances are bleak that all their Top Players will be fit the whole season, Schalke Leverkusen have interesting youngsters but it depends on how well they cope with the challenges of playing in big games. Young Players to watch will be: Timo Werner, Juliun Brandt, Levin Oztunali, Max Meyer, Donis Avdijaj,Mathias Ginter, Juliun Greene, Durm and Hojbberg. My Prediction for Best Player of Season is: Arjen Robben. Emerging Player of Season: Timo Werner. Dr. Strangelove
