The Bayer 04 Leverkusen team that reached the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League final was regarded as one of the most exciting, mobile teams ever to have graced the competition, but the current crop of players have shown that they can play slick, risky football as well. http://www.uefa.com/competitions/UCL/news/Kind=8192/newsId=252622.html
why is leverkusen considered big when most german titles have been won by b munich, dortmund and schalke?
I have been a fan for two seasons now and inconsistant is definitely the word for them. They have shown flashes of brilliance(vs ReAl and Munich) and have collapsed and crash and burned in ohter matches, its driving me nuts!! but I love them, don't know why but I do, and I live in California,USA and I am not even german, Im Hispanic!!! Leverkusen, Leverkuse, Leverkusen..................Its my dream to go and see Leverkusen play at the Bay Arena before I die
