. Illan Meslier
7 - Sharp when he had to be, other than the goal - for which he had little to no chance - was rarely troubled.
. Luke Ayling
8 - Plenty of clever play to win free-kicks or keep possession. Got forward well, created chances.
. Liam Cooper
8 - A short rocky period early on aside, dealt well with a varied Rovers attack, particularly the physical side.
. Ben White
9 - A joy to watch. Intercepted, pressed high up the pitch, ran the ball out well.
