What do you think of this one ?

Basically a good concept. However, in my opinion:

1. The background is distracting and should be changed to something more muted

2. Uniforms should be the same color. Since you already have him running in blue, the yellow uniform shot is redundant. Thus you could increase the size of the others.

3. You are using 2 different fonts, which is also distracting

Assuming you have saved the "masks", maybe you could try it again with these suggestions.

I would add that the player should be the focus - not only is the background too loud - the focus is the mascot which seems wrong. It's a preference thing but if I'm doing a collage for a subject I prefer at least one of the pictures to be up front and large - these smaller images could be any player (I'm jumping to the conclusion this is not for advertising since I see the name Joey I'm assuming it's intended for a single player).

You've obviously put a lot of time into this, but I think you might have gotten carried away with the artwork rather than let the photos be the driver.
