[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just want to get some opinions on the current state of F8. I remember some time ago it was a great program. Now that is has grown, its become overly saturated and focused more on revenue through camps, merch, "coaching course", Futsal, etc. Sucks because Christian seems like a good person but money has become his priority contrary to his messages on player development. I stopped taking my kid because that reason. I have heard he wants to start his own club but I would steer clear, its one thing coaching and one thing training players. The coaches that work there lack experience, they are just there as support and probably get underpaid compared to the enrollment. The priority of F8 is to gain popularity off the backs of kids IG accounts, its a genius marketing plan but its essentially free marketing for them.

Its a solid program but very out of touch now, just wondering if there are some that also feel the same. Hes a good guy but if you truly want to get your moneys worth, work with a reputable private trainer, CR is a good marketing person by leveraging his playing experience(Pro in El Salvador, which is not that high) as the selling point. For example, Luciano Emilio has a club in MD and hes a MLS Golden boot winner, the only difference is that CR is better at marketing. Again, this is not to bash them, I just speak on my perspective and for players who want to get more of their moneys worth.[/quote]

My DC went the past couple of days. He enjoyed it.  They definitely work them.

I suppose the bigger question is why throw shade? Your opinion is one thing, but then you name drop a “better option.”  You say a pro in El Salvador “is not that high”, but in the global scheme of things, MLS is?

It seems a peculiar, out of the blue post,  unless his growth is coming at the expense of your buddy Luciano.

In the end, coaches are doing their best to and hustle to make a living doing what they love. Let me know when you find former La Liga, Premier League, or Bundesliga player ready to coach at the same price point and I’ll join you.  [/quote]
