Nicely done. They look vintage. You do the vector yourself or did you just find them online?
Thanks breh. I searched for hi-res game photos and cut the players out and did the rest of the design elements myself in photoshop and illustrator

This is why growing up I always love Brazil because you had skillful black players that weren't typecasted into certain positions like African and Black European players

I also love this new Young class of skillful black players like Dembele, Pogba, etc.

Even for Brazil and some South Americans in general, it's a typecast of having "flair" and "passion". Not necesarily intelligence, instead just a "naturalness" of their ability. The take away is just that they're naturally gifted.

But European countries like Italy and Germany for examples are always noted for their "tacticalness" and " machinery". Intelligence and expertise is just something always connotated to western Europe.

We have Seri and Kessie, Thomas Pattey, and you put Moses at cm? :hhh:

Not my team.:hubie: Was curated by the African football expert Mark Gleeson on BBC's World Football phone-in.

I wish baba could get some run. Is he healthy from the knee?

Nah, not fully. Probably won't see him until later on in the year.

That African line up is poor by a so called African football expert. Doesn't have the best left back, best defensive midfielder/anchor and probably the second best centre back in the continent. That midfield would be overrun and the forwards would spend more times in their own halves tracking back. They would be vicious and hit with Roy Jones Jr type speed on the counter tho.

:mjlol: Benatia ain't been shyt since he left Roma.
