That could be the case, but I still think they are half step above those clubs listed as of now. They would also benefit with even more money being on PL, but I'm not sure how it would affect. For me right now it's Real-Barca, then Bayern and then the rest. 

I agree, I think they are above those clubs now. But with the added competition for the best players and no longer being by far the most reputable club in the league I also think they'd have a much harder time attracting/keeping the best players and would instead have a smaller piece of that pie, making it harder for them to dominate to the extent they currently do.

That's true, but even when dominating, it isn't as easy as people make it seem. Leipzig has been close this time,and Dortmund have been good oposition in the past. 

What I mean is that Bundesliga isn't a weak league with just one team. German teams are very good but they seem "bad" when compared to this giant. This happens also with la Liga and Barca and Real, many think smaller teams are crap, but they actually have great results in European competitions (See Sevilla or Atlético)
