There is this idea that players reach their peak at 27-28 but this world cup has shown some crazily talented players around the age of 22-24. I dread to think where these players will be if their upward trajectory continues for another 4 years or so. Have they reached their peak or is there still some way to go?
And players seem to start their careers a lot earlier these days so maybe the peak age is lower? It might explain why a number of English player level off after their mid-20s and seem shot to pieces by the time they're in the late 20s?
