Opinions

Marcin Gabor is an absolute expert. His expertise in various fields – coaching, Club management and analytical areas – is unquestionable and always effective. During many years of our cooperation, we have built mutual trust, on the basis of which both parties have been able to reap professional profits.

The work performed by Marcin Gabor is distinguished by total professionalism, great empathy and great expertise. Marcin is able to think in terms of Clubs, understand the individual problems and challenges of each Club and find practical solutions to them.

From my perspective, Marcin Gabor’s great asset is also his high social skills. This makes me always look forward to conversations with Marcin, which did not treat only professional issues. Our long conversations on a wide range of topics resulted in the fact that today I can speak of trust, which translates into a high level of cooperation.

I met Mr. Marcin Gabor more than 7 years ago, when we started our cooperation with small legal support projects. From the very beginning he appeared as an extremely competent, systematic, substantive person, and above all as a person with a clearly outlined – importantly, created from start to finish by himself – vision, mission and goal in terms of football professionalization in the broadest sense. The collection of all these qualities distinguishes Mr. Marcin remarkably from the majority of people in the so-called “football environment.” One could even say that he is a man who “does not fit” into the football scheme, and certainly a person who can do a lot of good for European football and make revolutionary changes.

The direction outlined by the FDI, i.e. the professionalization of football through education and the development of Clubs, is one hundred percent identical to the vision and mission of my business, which is extremely valuable to me.

I have come to know Marcin Gabor as a very competent professional in the field of football, who is able to listen to his interlocutors, open up to their opinions, and ultimately convey his own content beliefs. It is a great pleasure to work with Marcin, because he is a well-organized man with structured characteristics of action. He knows what he wants and how to translate it into practice.

At one time I conducted – at his invitation – a seminar on the game and working with goalkeepers. The organization of this event was at a very high level, so I was able to concentrate solely on the content presented. I am grateful to Marcin for the opportunity to speak in Warsaw, but also for his detailed feedback, which helped me on many levels.

I wish Marcin Gabor and the entire FDI an excellent start and much success. I realize that there is a lot of time and work put behind the idea of the Football Development Institute, but I know Marcin and I know that if such a project could have been created, it was in his head.

I met Marcin Gabor at the age of 16. At that time I was first included in Cracovia’s first team. Also thanks to his recommendation. From the beginning he impressed me with his knowledge and perfect preparation for training. Without a doubt – he is a coach full of passion and ambition, who has a great gift: coach Gabor is able to “infect” the whole team with his football philosophy and way of playing. As a young football player, I was lucky to have had the opportunity to work with such an open-minded and committed coach.
