He has huge potential. “He has everything. He has speed, he has technique, he has a shot, he has left foot, right foot, skills…“But Marcus is the guy, if you give him confidence and he sees that you believe in him, he can give you back 200 per cent.”“He’s a very nice guy,” the Poland legend continued. “We spoke because we are sitting in the dressing room beside [each other]. We also play ping-pong. I see that this guy is very kind, a very nice guy, but also because of this, he needs someone standing behind him.“If he does have this confidence, he can really play his best football and on the best level.”
