The magazine that I would like to talk about is called ‘FourFourTwo’. It takes its name from the football formation of the same name, 4 4-2. This magazine is published once a month and as the title suggests it is all about football. The major reason why I enjoy reading this sports mag is that for the most part the articles are in-depth so you find out a lot about legendary or up-and-coming football players.
I’m not entirely sure when I first started reading it. If I remember rightly, my parents bought me a subscription to it for my birthday a few years ago. I love it so much that I have renewed the subscription every year. It is great value for money because it’s jam-packed with articles and insightful info.
Some glossy magazines are full of adverts and this can be quite annoying because there isn’t much content, but what I love about this mag is that although there are adverts, they are not on every other page. They tend to be just at the back of the magazine.
One particular article that I read recently was about Cristiano Ronaldo and rather than just concentrating on his accomplishments and his celebrity lifestyle, this article discussed in depth how he trains, what he eats etc and, therefore, I found it a fascinating insight into what makes him an incredible footballer.

The magazine that I’d like to talk about is called FourFourTwo. It’s named after the 4-4-2 football formation, and it’s published monthly. As the title suggests, it focuses entirely on football, which is why I find it so engaging.
I’m not entirely sure when I started reading it, but I believe my parents gifted me a subscription for my birthday a few years ago. Since then, I’ve renewed the subscription every year because I really enjoy it. The magazine offers great value for money with its extensive and detailed articles about both legendary and emerging football players.
One of the things I particularly appreciate about FourFourTwo is that while it does include advertisements, they’re not overwhelming. Unlike some glossy magazines that are filled with ads on almost every page, FourFourTwo keeps its ads mostly towards the back, which means that most of the content is actual reading material.
A recent article that I found particularly fascinating was about Cristiano Ronaldo. Rather than just highlighting his achievements and celebrity lifestyle, the piece provided an in-depth look at his training routines, diet, and other aspects of his life. This kind of detailed insight into what makes him an exceptional footballer is exactly why I enjoy this magazine—it offers a deeper understanding of the sport and its players beyond the surface level.
