Sterling doesn’t merit a 5. You get a 5 for pulling your shirt on and managing to get your boots on the correct feet. He was fresh (unlike Kev) and he loses points for missing a straightforward goal attempt from twelve yards with only one opponent trying to stop him.
I wouldn’t let him take another penalty.

Sterling never, ever looks confident. So much of penalty taking is in the most important square foot on the football pitch......the player’s head.
I think Toure was the most successful penalty taker we have ever had.......he always looked liked he was going to score. He exuded confidence and gave no indication that he had one iota of doubt that he would do anything but score.
Comparing his body language to Sterling’s.......chalk and cheese.

To be fair to Kun he was pretty good at pens, not Yaya standard, but Ok. You would think that pens get fully sorted during training, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5th You have to want to take them and with the goalie now under VAR scrutiny to stay on his line it should be a piece of cake for a pro footballer to score.
