Hide AdLuke 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.
Barry Douglas, 8: Tidy, composed, showed quality in the final third when he got forward.

Hide AdKalvin Phillips, 8: The free-kick was the highlight but his overall performance was good. Shielded the ball well, moved it well, won free-kicks.
Mateusz Klich, 8: Played a full part in some lovely passing moves, dangerous in and around the box, deserved a goal.
Jack Harrison, 7: A threat on the right, more effective as the game opened up and kept Rovers on their heels in the second half.
Gjanni Alioski, 7: Another solid display. Disciplined when he had to be, but ran at Rovers constantly.

Patrick Bamford, 8: Took his first chance, hit the post, a foul denied him a clear goalscoring opportunity, worked his socks off.
