It explains he looking ace at 14-17(really 17-20, say). It doesn't explain looking washed up at 24 (really 27-28). So there is still an element of stagnation and just not being good enough.
Friend's dad was coach and I played on a U12 travel team when I was 13. I was a small kid in a small town - definitely didn't look 'old' - but holy shit did I dominate. I think I scored 20 goals in 10 games and we went undefeated.
We'll know there is something to this if Freddy tries to get into an O-40 league in 7 years, or so. Hate those young f**kers that sneakily play up in masters leagues.

Swedish Third Division..... Freddy should just play in the Faeroe Islands and finally have a league he can stick with...
This sounds official-ish: https://www.si.com/soccer/2018/01/1...set-join-13th-professional-club-side-14-years WOOOOOOOOO!!! Thread revived.
I suspect this trip might have a bit to do with his affinity for 3 chic pics and Swedish girls. We will see, perhaps. I question whether he is capable of achieving match fitness requisite for a professional. Under the best of circumstances, this was never a forte.
they seem to like bald dudes. Maybe Friedel or Keller wanna come out of retirement and give that a whirl all the cool kids are coming out of retirement
Swedish 3rd division is the 5th tier of football in Sweden. Hard to imagine the pay is enough to clear expenses. Maybe he is just doing it for the love of the game.
Oskarshamns is in the 1st division, that is the third tier of Swedish soccer: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_1_i_fotboll_för_herrar_2018
