Great magazine, but there is no mention of Ruud Gullit in your Perfect 10 article in the Dec-Feb 2024 Issue 17.

Insightful and engaging magazine that looks into the past and present of European football, I love the old articles and prints that come with each issue, worth every penny for the content and delivery!

Great stories. Great layout. Great quality.

I was very surprised with the quality of the magazine. The paper was of the highest standard and was freshly printed. I was also very impressed with the packaging of the magazine and was buzzing to receive a print as an extra with the mag. Along with everything I've already mentioned, the magazine was full to the brim with great stories, amazing pieces of artwork and photographs from across Europe's elite competition and to top it off, I could even pick my own cover, as a Celtic fan, I was very pleased to pick the cover with Kyogo on it. I will definitely be buying again in the future"

Although I don’t support any of the teams that are in Champions League, I love the in-depth articles on players & teams. The magazine is very well presented, with brilliant pictures. Keep up the excellent work.

Excellent publication with a variety of subjects,I especially like reading about previous matches and players.

Another great issue of champions journal with fantastic articles and features,with good stories and stunning pictures

Another great issue,packed with great articles,fantastic pictures and the best no adverts on every other page like match day programmes and all the other football magazines have.

All smiles loved you so much general Lee

Absolutely loved it !!

Loved it ! Great read !

Arrived perfect condition. Great read and such an in-depth interview with the players. Will definitely recommend to family & friends

Amazing

Amazing book! Definitely recommend

It was amazing all over but the champions Journal front packaging cover was damaged from some sides so it could've been better.

It was such an interesting read I really enjoyed it!

Great publication which covers the world of football I enjoy the in depth articles about players clubs and world football but I often skip the fashion pages etc

Perfect! I love it soooo much!

Great content, focusing on the past, present and future of football.

Came in awesome condition and loved the packaging. Nicely packaged and awesome contents. Would love to see more youth players in the premier league.

Really good quality

To be honest I only bought it for the cover of Mason but turned out to be an interesting read.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Best thing I’ve bought, packaged well and the quality of the book was 10/10! Highly recommend

2 weeks and my magazine still not with me… I could go to shop and buy it from there…

It’s perfect 😍

i love this. it is honestly amazing! i 10/10 recommend.

i’m so happy with the journal as a whole! the cover is amazing and i enjoyed the content! the delivery was super quick, i was expecting to have to wait but it arrived very fast and i was super happy.

Amazing experience loved everything about the journal to the packaging and even the delivery experience would definitely recommend !

great purchase, really pleased with it.

I love the champion league journals always so interesting to read and they come fast and the packaging is also lovely :) I’ve loved the journals I’ve got so far and can’t wait to carry on receiving them

fast delivery, no damages when it arrived either

Excellent mag, would love to see more actual match reviews, photos and statistics of the ongoing tournament as well

As always, amazing articles with a pick of Europe’s, if not the World’s best players.

This issue was special as it had a favourite player mason mount featured I did buy the first issue and the standard of articles has improved

In an ever changing media market Champions Journal consistently produces the blueprint for quality sports print media. Excellent journalism coupled with great design and some of the Worlds best sports photography Champions Journal is the gold standard.

Very good magazine,great content with a wide rangae of articles on the champions league,the old programme feature is excellent the shirts one also. A article on past finals would also be good to see with interviews from players,managers coaches from both sides not just about the final but the run to the final. It is a excellent magazine and i enjoy reading it when published already looking forward to the next issue,i hope my comments are of any help to you thank you David Heath Jones

A must have and must read for all football fanatics, a real journey beyond the 90 minutes on the pitch. Beautifully written articles covering many different football related topics and themes.

Love the magazine, service was excellent.

Fantastic, love getting my new copies.

I liked the visual elements, as well as the feel, overall great experience.

An example of what print media should be, excellence in design, photography and journalism.

I find the content of the articles is excellent

Excellent research, beautiful pictures and a very aesthetic magazine. Congratulations on this great piece of work. Unfortunately still waiting for the latest magazine but I’ve been explained that the covid and brexit situations are complicating everything. No rush.

A first class magazine. Interesting. Entertaining. Illuminating and beautifully produced. I will be subscribing

I like the option to choose the cover, and the quality of the paper. The pictures are nice that give more personality to the magazine. I would add something about some historical games (from the past). Maybe something about cities and their football culture. Let say, for example, Glasgow, Istanbul, Madrid..

Amazing design! The poster look amazing as well!

At a time when we are blessed with an array of fantastic football publications, Champions Journal is right up there with the best of them. A varied and interesting range of features supported by some stunning photography and design really does the job. As a fan of non-league football with no real interest in the champions league, I still appreciate the real quality of this publication .

Great publication well done , superb effort really appreciated. Would suggest a section on historical matches together with Historic photographic coverage.

A brilliant magazine, wonderful layout, informative articles and stunning photos, thank you

Great work !!!

Very good magazine,great articles and pictures and the prints of goals is very good as well,also like the option of being able to pick the cover you want,excellent magazine.

Top class interviews, beautifully presented and with plenty of material to keep you interested from first page to last. Highly recommended!

It’s excellent, the quality of writing and images is superb. I’m looking forward to how the Champions League plays out in Portugal in the next few s weeks and to see how the magazine reflects that

Excellent articles every issue. Only downside is post and packing to Ireland is pricey

Excellent articles from across Europe. Great photography and access to both big names and great stories from European football.

I like the articles about not just the football but other delights of various cities. I also love the superb coverage of the .champions league. I would like to see a Quiz in each issue with a prize to be won.

Great

Absolutely love this journal and not just because it has Sonshine on the front (can you tell I support Spurs?). It's my favourite thing to read in the garden on a sunny day. P.S. The interview with Griezmann is one of the best interviews I've read in a long time. Not my player, not my team, but had me engrossed the whole time. I expected to read the first page and swiftly move on, as I don't care too much for Barcelona, but I read the whole thing with way more interest than I dare to admit. As a 27 year old girl obsessed with football, I've found there isn't that much media out there that isn't specifically created and marketed to men. It's one of the reasons I love Champions Journal - the inclusion of women's football, the poetic writing, and the general professional edge that you don't tend to find on, well, Twitter. It's nice to escape the football-is-for-boys world once in a while and your journal helps me do that.

Great don't like reading but this was something else also made me like reading

Hi there, I just wanted to thank you for sending the competition prizes out to me. Genuinely, I think the Champions Journal is a long overdue type of magazine. Receiving the two issues have certainly made lockdown that bit easier! Also, I think the way you balance the games with the stories and artwork makes it such a unique read. Honestly, you must be inundated with requests for stories. However, if you are ever in need of one, I feel I would have a few to offer. Being a Nottingham Forest fan hasn’t been easy since I was born and I’ve been involved with the club for decades in one way or another. However, I’ve grown up around the stories of the European Cup triumphs and the joy that it has brought the city. I’d be more than happy to give more detail, but really I just wanted to thank you all again. Kind regards, Sam

Fantastic magazine that I used to read a few years back when It was a monthly magazine. Great content and great articles. Champions league is the best football competition in the world and the magazine explains alot about the completion that you dont get anywhere else. Thank you

A Really Insightful magazine that i thoroughly enjoyed reading. Some great in depth pieces and I especially liked the interview with Son. My one suggestion that you could look into is to perhaps include the greatest champions league stadiums of all time as a feature, or perhaps some of the greatest matches of the competitions history!

I enjoyed it more than expected - being an official publication usually means the content is a little on the dry side. Zidane's head was too small on the free print!

It was a great experience and it was very interesting to see what's next

I truly loved reading this magazine and great that also covers women's football too. I have tagged you on both Facebook and Instagram with my pic. I do not have a twitter account. Love the Heung Min Son interview. Great interviews with both players and fans - I loved reading about Radmilla the cake lady, some great features and photos - True quality which I cant find room for improvement at all

Really good read with great interviews. Massive Eden Hazard fan so the interview with him was especially good. Great Read especially during these unfortunate times.

I loved the addition of the posters to what is already a well written and beautifully designed magazine! They make for a great zoom background :)

This is the soccer magazine I have been looking for! Nothing more can be said about the excellent journalism and photography. Would like to see an article on how Topps got involved in producing Champions League trading cards.

Love the books, and always turn up well packed and no damage on any of the items when delivered.

Best football magazine I've ever bought...asboulty love it...the design..pictures...writing...the only disappointing thingh about it...only comes out every 3 months

hi , I do like the content of your magazine a lot . I do like browsing through the photographs and would like to see more double page photos of some iconic moments in football ( Hand of God , John Barnes and banana , Zidane headbutt) . I'm not so much into the drawings illustrations - thus 4 stars for the last issue . Perhaps taking on political side of football stories, some football controversy stories (drugs and sex abuse by players , players struggling in life after football, conflicts within football teams eg. Eva Carneiro v Mourinho or the most famous football players altercations on and off the pitch )could add different dimensions to your Magazine. I would like to see next issue being a bit more rough , dirty , maybe visually challenging and uneasy???

Very good magazine,a nice mix of articles and photos and the print with each issue is nice

Increased protective packaging to avoid magazine & poster being damaged during delivery. Magazine has great content but needs to be published on a more regular basis like once a month. Extra induvidual club special issues on their history to date in the competition with stats, interviews, posters/ reproduction memorabilia like original final programme covers & final tactical line-up sheets etc. Also, "CHAMPIONS JOURNAL" merchandise with the magazine's name/ logo & brand colourway on it like a keyring, breakaway lanyard, sports drinks bottle, travel mug, crew-neck short-sleeve cotton t-shirt, adjustable baseball cap, cuffed beanie hat, jacquard football scarf, drawstring gymsack, mini-training ball etc. This ould not only promote your magazine, but it would extend it beyond just printed text, & of course be cool for your readers.

Very well written fanzine with a nice variety of articles. Finally found a football mag where I’m interested in all of the articles rather than a select few! Impressed with Issue 2 so I will be subscribing! Keep up the good work.

Stunning Publication - Keep it up !!!!!

I liked the cover model. It showed that Asians could be cover models for European magazines, and it allowed them to have hope.

Beautiful Magazine Packaging and content

I like the concept of the magazine it's very easy to read and well organized.but the price is a little too high and I can't find it around book stores which is quite a pity. Would love to see ngolo kante as a cover player.

Better than previously Champions League magazine

Really enjoyed reading through the first two issues. Great articles and photography, also a nice design and packaging.

In depth interviews, brilliantly written and beautifully put together, it’s more a coffee table book than just a magazine

Great product. Loved it. Have signed up for the 2-year subscription. 120 pages of pure quality in an era of clickbait is ideal.

A great blend of in-depth interviews, photo stories and features. an enjoyable read for an avid football fan.

Great packaging for a journal and nice design!

Good morning. Finally, the magazine arrived home. After 45 days, but I am happy. It was so kind to me while the employees exchanged e-mails. Thank you. I was very sad because Eriksen left us, but the next day the magazine arrived and made me feel good. I hope everyone in the 2020 Champions Journal will be happy. Lastly, thank you very much! From Yoon in Korea.

Excellent ! Beautiful articles and reviews Can we include actual match reports and statistics ?

I really like the historic articles and articles on cities and places in general. I think the interviews sometimes are boring

A very good effort. A few pointers for improvements 1. Check your font on the background - at times it is almost impossible to read e.g. page 49, left-hand column white on jade does not work 2. Tell your writers not to be so sycophantic. Hunter's article on Griezman is cringeworthy. Too in favour of the player (and I like the Barcelona forward). Critical analysis should be measured and balanced 3. More on tactics in specific matches. e.g. analyse both matches home and away of Chelsea v Ajax. Why was one a narrow 1-0 draw and the rest a shoot-out of 4-4 where both teams defences were woeful. Having said the above I really enjoy the magazine and read it as soon s it is delivered. I am a subscriber and will certainly continue if you incorporate the above changes. Best wishes

Great content: from articles to photography, the magazine is for real fans of the beautiful game. Planned to save it for my morning commute but finished it all in one weekend!

Great artistic rendition of the beautiful game.

Finally a showcase for the finest sports photography, great design and exceptional journalism. The new benchmark!

It’s really great. My granny got it for my birthday and I love it.
