Delighted to go top! 
But comes with it's challenges, Pressure to deliver and keeping the players motivated! Some of the squad havn't been in the position we find ourselves so will be interesting to see how they handle the expectations... Still plenty of matches go come!

Didn't quite get the 36 goals we were on track for! But emphatic win none the less. Plenty of points to make up to catch Santos. Will be interesting to read the match report and understand how everyone performed before making any changes to the side.

The machine that is Leverkusen seemed well oiled now! El Shaawary clearly knows Musiala has come to replace him, did he do enough this week to keep his starting 11 spot... Goal difference vastly improved. However, manager is heading straight to physio room to see the verdict on Milinkovic-Savic...

As long as teams above drop points Genk should have enough quality to make up ground, but still the manager see's room for improvement in the squad
