Don't know where will I end. 😬

Seems like a fun event! FYI you have the same image for both Ronaldo and Messi. Thought you'd wanna know.

:cry: Thank you :blushing: Fixed it. Not sure how it snuck in there...

One more fix may be reqd- De Bruyne's image contains flag of France but mentioned as Belgium against his name!

This should be a fun competition, bb, and the banner ad looks great. (I thought you might sneak yourself or Bunuel in there somewhere, but if either of you are in the stands, those spotlights are blinding me.) Your son chose a fine set of players to kick off the competition. I was happy to float one small suggestion that turned into something bigger.

Thank you! You have a good eye man!!!
Fixing it with the Belgian flag.

P.S. Though sadly enough, it does not seem he is getting the attention, love, or recognition.
I am surprised Lewandowski is also so neglected, who is probably one of the strongest players these days (based on my in-house soccer consultant) :angel:

I agree… and we had Salah but he is Egyptian and someone from the mod team pointed out that Egypt did not qualify this year 😭

you got the wrong picture for Hazard. The picture is of Thorgan Hazard, and I'm pretty sure the reference intended is for his brother Eden Hazard, a Real Madrid galactico!

You know, my son did say that Hazard looked wrong but I googled it and showed him the image and he reluctantly agreed that it was the correct image... (I did not even think twice about it not knowing that he had a brother :facepalm_man: )

Fixed and thank you for restoring the truth!

Surprised to see very less picks for Courtois. Hands down the man of the Champions League Finals.

I think this is an indicator that perhaps the majority of those voting are not avid/heavy football/soccer followers.
