best to use single focus point placed on exactly what you want in focus.

Nailed it!  Even in the first shot, his right eye (slightly further away than his left) is slightly more in focus.  With around f/2, you have to be spot on the focus.  I usually use center focus, but doing so risks a slight shift if focusing and recomposing.  Do not use a multipoint focus and let the camera choose which one.
