Manchester United suffered a heartbreaking defeat to Manchester City, losing 7-6 on penalties in the FA Community Shield on Saturday. The match ended in a draw during regular time, forcing both teams into a nerve-wracking shootout.
Below are the Players Who Should Be Dropped;
Scott McTominay
Scott McTominay missed a crucial opportunity during the match when he failed to pass the ball to Alejandro Garnacho after being found smartly by Bruno Fernandes. This decision cost United a golden chance, especially when McTominay shockingly missed from six yards out.
Jadon Sancho
Coming on for Marcus Rashford in the 83rd minute, Jadon Sancho had a chance to make an impact. However, his penalty attempt was thwarted by Ederson, as Sancho's unconvincing run-up led to a weak effort that was easily saved.
Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford continues to search for the form that made him a standout last season. He was frustratingly wasteful in front of goal, notably curling wide after a promising build-up.
His missed one-on-one opportunity against Ederson, where he struck the post.
Maso Mount
Mason Mount had a difficult time influencing the game, often over-hitting his passes and failing to position himself effectively in attacking areas.
The English international's lack of impact was evident throughout the match.
Jonny Evans
Jonny Evans displayed moments of shakiness, particularly when he gave the ball away, leading to an attempt by McAtee that struck the post.
Although Evans made some crucial blocks and clearances, his performance was marred by a poorly taken penalty during the shootout.
