Shaw was 100% our player of the tournament. Sterling did well too, but he should've stepped up to take a pen rather that leave it to a kid.
My biggest issue with his selection last night was the change back to 5 in defence, and the lack of pace up top. Sancho or Saka should have started.

And again with the back 5, what do people think didn't work with that? We were solid having them always playing in front of our lines with a 5 and when we played with a 4 they were breaking through our lines time and time again. 5 at the back was the right choice, Mount was where the choice was wrong as we needed pace to expose the CB'sStop hovering to collapse...

I share the frustration, but you could easily make a case if we’d been more open and ‘all out attack’, Italy could have been out of sight come full time. That could have suited them even more. I think sometimes we have to accept the opposition’s ability, yes we could have done some things differently, but there’s no guarantee we’d have got a different outcome.

While I was looking through the United shoot out records I did come across something I forgot. While on loan at Derby a certain Mason Mount too the first penalty at Old Trafford when a League Cup game went to pens and scored. So it further highlights some of the odd choices for players to take off in extra time when pens were a real option while leaving others on. There were people on the pitch who as far as I can tell haven't ever taken a senior penalty even in a shootout but others we took off who have scored multiple both in normal play and in shootouts and who usually nominate themselves in the first 5Stop hovering to collapse...

I see Pickford was supposedly lined up for penalty number 6. Yes that's right, Pickford who even doing his normal job has a habit of buckling under pressure was going to be asked to take a penalty before the rest of our attacking players

We have seen with Pickford for Everton that he is prone to errors in moments of stress, even against Denmark notice how poor his kicking that had been great suddenly went to pot. It's the one concern we have seen levelled at him and it’s why Everton seemingly seemed wanted to replace him last summer because while he is largely a quality keeper but mentally people don’t trust himStop hovering to collapse...
