I thought I'd write a little bit about myself since a few people have messaged me already.
First thing, I won't be sharing my real name on here. I learnt pretty quickly on Facebook that some people just love starting drama, and I've had more than enough racist comments and pointless abuse over the years. I'd rather be known as **DrexaWolf** than deal with all that again.
I was born and raised in Croydon and I've been obsessed with football for as long as I can remember. I started playing properly when I was about 7 years old and it's honestly been my whole life ever since. I played for Croydon FC and recently had the chance to go for Arsenal FC trials. I'm a lifelong Arsenal supporter, so that alone was surreal.
I was lucky enough to earn a six-month contract and I'm currently in the Under-20 youth squad. It's an amazing opportunity, but people don't always see how tough it is. Everyone is talented, everyone wants the same dream, and you have to prove yourself every single day. Nothing is guaranteed.
My days are pretty much planned from the moment I wake up. Alarm goes off at 5am. Breakfast is usually just fruit and a smoothie. Then it's around three hours in the gym before football training, which runs until about 11. After that it's education and coursework, then more football training later in the day. Thursdays, Fridays or weekends are usually match days depending on the schedule. It sounds repetitive, but it's the life I chose and I wouldn't swap it.
Outside of football I'm actually pretty quiet. I don't drink, don't do drugs, and I hardly ever go out partying. Most of my time is spent recovering, training, or just relaxing at home. I recently passed my driving test and bought myself a Toyota Supra, which I'm still buzzing about.
Music-wise I'm into R&B and reggae more than anything. When I've got some free time I'm usually on my Xbox playing sports games or Fortnite.
One thing that surprises people is that I've always been fascinated by the supernatural. Gothic history, old folklore, unexplained stories, strange legends... I've always found that kind of thing interesting. I don't know what I believe, but I enjoy learning about it, which is pretty much what brought me here.
If you've made it this far, thanks for reading. Feel free to say hello, recommend a good book, documentary, or legend I should look into. I'm always up for a decent conversation.

Nice. Are you a defender, midfielder, or attacker?

Dude, I know you just got your contract but there is no 'under 20 team'. It's UC21. And your club isn't listing you either, so you need to get on top of that and tear a strip off their ass.
You have a brand and career to protect here.
Maybe I'm wrong, either way, you need to check it out.
