Donnarumma named as player of the tournament ... not sure about that.
I agree about defenders, but then Bonucci deserved it more than Donnarumma in my opinion.Naah, didn’t have much to do in the group stage. I guess his involvement in the penalty shootouts against Spain and England kinda justifies it. It’s not that often a GK or defender gets that kind of recognition so I’m all for it

I understand the desire to spread the places around different teams, but how is Phillips not in there ahead of Pogba, who had one masterclass in a game his team lost?
You forgot about Le Tournoi?pleb

I wouldn’t have frowned if it had been Bonucci but I don’t think Donnarumma is a controversial choice
Was it a decision they were leaving until the match was over? I get it if so - but only because of the manner of victory for Italy and the previous penalty shootout against Spain.
Italy's best player was Spinazzola up to the point he got hurt.
Any of Chiesa, Bonucci, Chiellini, Jorginho or Donnarumma were worthy choices.
That side will take some beating in Qatar
Yeah, I think the England non league team could've won the trophies some of those teams have wonpleb
