Back after they won the World Cup, there was a former German international (can't remember who) that said the level of planning that went into international scene was astonishing.
Apparently it goes all the way back to 2000 and there was a complete revamp from under age football up. Klinsmann got great credit for his behind the scenes work and the plan was always to replace him with Loew to create continuity, once his time was up as manager.
