Lawrence Vigouroux – 7.5

Didn’t have an enormous amount of saves to make, but came out to collect crosses well. Distribution was generally strong too. No stopping Rovers’ goal.

Canice Carroll – 7.5

Made a strong run down to left to create Town’s first goal. Sometimes hit a block when entering Rovers’ half, perhaps need more movement from his teammates.

Tom Broadbent – 8

Put his head on the line, near faultless in the first half. Wobbled in the second under pressure, but generally a good performance.

Luke Woolfenden – 7

Few rushed clearances amid Rovers’ purple patch at the start of the second half. But recovered well and can tick off another good performance.

Ali Koiki – 8

Very impressive on the left wing in the first half. Good crosses and strong instinct to move the ball forwards. Would be surprised if he’s dropped after that.

James Dunne – 7

Had a couple of chances on the edge of the penalty area, but both were guided into Davies’ gloves. Battled hard, sometimes in vain.

Jak McCourt – 7.5

Should’ve put the game to bed with five minutes remaining, but proved capable on free kicks and is starting to come to form.

Michael Doughty – 7.5

A clinical finish to score Town’s second goal. Perhaps frustrated to be subbed, but Wellens tweaked his tactics to secure the points.

Keshi Anderson – 7

Had his moments and on another day one of his blocked shots would have found a way through. More strong runs on the edge of the area.

Kaiyne Woolery – 6.5

Starting to improve and made some good runs. But goalless again. A fair performance, nothing too spectacular.

Marc Richards – 7.5

Starting to find his rhythm now and added his third goal of the season. A tidy flick to put Town ahead. Faded a little in the second half.

SUBS:

Danny Rose: 6.5

Quite a quiet debut for Rose. But perhaps that tells us that he did his job. Like Taylor, calmed the game down.

Matt Taylor: 6.5

Calmed the game right down, though didn’t have enough time to get a real look at.

Kyle Knoyle: 7

Showed confidence to push forward when Tranmere looked the more likely to score.
