Mise-In-Scene

The main image on the front cover is Messi in motion. 

Messi is captured in deep concentration, 

perfect balance and action. 

He comes across as determined and focused

in the midst of a scene during a match. He’s apparently passing the ball on to someone else, or, we don’t really know, kicking the ball in an attempt to score. 

He’s a man on a mission, nothing is left to coincidence,

and every muscle and fiber in his body and facial expression emits engagement and perseverance. In essence, the image could be something different, the obvious situation of course would be celebrating a goal or scoring a goal and all the sense of celebration that this would stir. But it’s not. Football is 90+ minutes of hard work, not glamorous, fighting and will to win. This is what the image is about.

The magazine FourFourTwo is using football players or football coaches as their main image on the front cover or on the double page spread.

The football players normally wear football 

clothes as: game kit or training kit. Sometimes can you also see the players in suits or with a ball in there hands or 

between their legs.

The picture to the right is a picture of five players (David Beckham in the front, Steven Gerrard to the left in the red jersey, Frank Lampard to the left in the red jersey and Ashley Cole and Gary Neville in the back in white jerseys) from the english national football team, and three of them are holding an World Cup adidas ball in their hands. Its definitely on purpose that you can see the adidas logo, so they are properly getting payed by adidas to hold the World Cup ball for some advertisement.
The clothes they are wearing are their training kit for The World Cup and is symbolizing the colours of the english flag,
red and white.

The coaches who appears on the front cover or in 

the double page spread normally wear suits or 

training clothes.

José Mourinho is on the front cover to the right and he is wearing Chelsea´s traning kit and is holding the Champions League ball in his hands. José Mourinho normally wears a suit but on this issue he is wearing a training kit and so it properly makes him a more part of the team and that people shouldn't only see him as a coach but at part of the team. the reason why he holds the Champions League ball in his hands is because he think that he can help Chelsea to get to the final in Champions League or maybe actually win the Champions League.
