Find the shiteist league possible and play 5 a side. You’ll be terrible but once you get sharp and fit will see massive improvements with game time. It’s hella fun and you’ll see why it’s the best sport in the world

Is it too late to become a professional footballer in a top league? Yeah, it unfortunately is.

Is it too late to just start playing and be good at it? Nope. Go nuts!

I reckon is like training my weak foot. I started by passing the ball to the wall. Then, i pick up the ball and release it and try controlling the ball.

For dribbling, dont try to learn fancy stuff.

Doesn’t listen too these “too late” comments is going to be the first thing you have to do .

Just to say i still play 5-a-side with my mates and I am 40+. By faaaar my most enjoyable exercise.

Never too late!

Look you are not going pro but you can improve enough to be a decent player in a Sunday league team.

My advice would be to focus on ball mastery first. That means just practice being in control of the ball in different situations. A lot of people would focus on passing/shooting which is important, but you can’t pass or shoot if you don’t control the ball beforehand. Wether it is during a dribble or with a first touch after receiving/intercepting the ball.

There are several ways to improve ball mastery. Wiel Coërver has produced a method that is used all over the world to improve this with exercises you can do alone or with teammates. If you search YouTube you will find examples enough.

Once you have a decent ball mastery you can practice everything else.

Join a local team, they’ll be loads around.

You can practice skills all you like but football is definitely better to learn as you do.

Dude, if you wanna play, go and play. You will probably never be a professional, however it can be a good way to exercise and alot of fun.
