Marcell Jansen

Borussia Monchengladbach, of the German Bundesliga, has an emerging talent by the name of Marcell Jansen on display.

The 19 year old left back has been awarded his first cap by German national coach Jurgen Klinsman following some excellent results at the club level. He has indeed been impressive. Tall and lanky, he has excellent footwork for his size.

He’s crafty too, very adept at wrong footing defenders and cool under pressure in the box. He’s being put forward as a long term solution for the national side already. In defense he’s still got technical skills to develop but a lot of raw talent.

In the limited time he’s been on the pitch for the national side he’s made an obvious impact. A consistent threat on the ball at club level, Jansen forces defenses to linger on him because he’s adept with crosses and also a the threat on foot.

A place in Germany’s home World Cup side would definitely add some flair.

Marcell is definetly one of Klinsmann's new Youngstars. He is playing well in the bundesliga and I'm looking forward to see him playing in the national dress in the next few months again. If he is able to keep this high level he will be a good choice for the fifa world cup next year.
