Are you interested/engaged in football now as you were when you were younger? (alien.top)

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?

I deffo don't. I think it's because now I have more going on. I have a 9-5 where I'm a senior manager, I'm starting my own business, I'm in a long term relationship, I have nieces and nephews, my brother has married an Italian woman and I'm helping him house hunt in Naples as I speak Italian. A lot of the time if I watch anything on TV now I end up falling asleep. I just think it's a part of getting older.
