Panini Premier League 2022

 

The official sticker collection of the Premier League 2021/2022 was released by Panini for the third consecutive season in December 2021. The collection includes only the clubs of the Premier League and the album was released also in a special hardcover with slipcase edition.

The album begins with the contents and the first two introductory stickers: the trophy and the official ball of the competition. Then the clubs are introduced by a two-page with stats and one sticker per club. The squads are then shown in alphabetical order with 29 stickers per club over four pages. In the first two pages there is the club badge (shiny stickers), the team photo sticker, and 22 player stickers. In the following two pages there are five more stickers: the home kit (shiny sticker), power pair (shiny sticker), star signing, "elite" (shiny sticker), and celebrations.

In the center of the album there are three special sections. "Stat Central" includes 20 stickers of players in action (one for each club), "PL Legends" shows six stickers of legendary Premier League players in action, and "Next Gen Stars" focuses on the rising stars of the Premier League with a total of 8 stickers.

The album resumes then with the clubs of the Premier League and it ends with the Transfer Update section, where there is space for 48 new player stickers to be found in the update set released in March 2022. Overall, a very good collection with a spectacular hardcover album, even though quite similar to the previous two editions. But once again Panini showed Topps how to make a proper sticker album.
