When I was younger, especially between the ages of 15 to around 27, I feel like I was a lot more invested in my own team and wider football in general. I knew my own squad inside & out and could easily list players from the majority of players in the top leagues.
However, now at age 36, I find that I really struggle to keep up with football in general. I hear about players my club is going to sign and a lot of the time I have no idea who they are. I’ll look at highlights of Serie A & La Liga and for the most part won’t recognise most of the players.
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like as they’re getting older, they’re less engaged with the game?
Opposite personally. Just turned 30 and find myself being more engaged than ever. I’ve always had a slight understanding of all the teams and players in the league, but now I’m watching as many games as my time will allow and taking in content almost daily.
