In the modern game it may be a bit late to be still learning, but to that I say one thing - Ian Wright didn't start playing football till his mid 20's. And he's one of the Premiership all time great goal scorers. So who knows.

This story's been exaggerated quite a lot, Ian Wright signed for Crystal Palace when he was 21, he'd been playing football at lower levels since he was a child.
Looking forward to the day when someone says 'Ian Wright actually never kicked a ball in his life yet is still Arsenal's second leading goalscorer, so it just shows that it's never too late'
Will probably never happen though
