I think if he takes the job, he'll change a lot of things."Marco Reus worked with Klopp at Borussia DortmundIt's high praise from Reus, who currently plays his soccer in MLS with LA Galaxy, with a clear belief that Klopp can bring about the change that Germany needs.The national team has struggled to be competitive in major tournaments ever since the 2014 World Cup triumphs, with recent campaigns seeing some spectacular exits in the group stage and early knockout rounds.Given how much of a powerhouse Germany has been in global soccer, those difficulties in the past decade have come as something of a shock, especially with the talent that the country is capable of producing.Whether Klopp can bring both a short-term improvement and a long-term stabilization remains to be seen, with two years now before the 2028 European Championships.The journey to that competition will start soon, with the ex-Liverpool man looking to create a turning point for Germany to get back to the pinnacle of international sport again.Choose Liverpool.com as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.Jurgen Klopp
