Here's how Pool's players rated:
1. Chris Maxwell - 6/10
Yet another quiet afternoon at the office. Communicated and marshalled the players in front of him well.
2. Ollie Turton - 6/10
A little shaky early on and conceded some needless free-kicks. But otherwise solid and unflustered in the main.
3. Marvin Ekpiteta - 7/10
Did the dirty things well and kept things nice and simple. Hopefully the start of a good relationship with Dan Ballard.
4. MAN OF THE MATCH: Dan Ballard - 8/10
Magnificent from start to finish. Calm and assured and always looks to have time when he has the ball.
5. Demetri Mitchell - 6/10
Much better defensively, but didn’t have a great deal to deal with from MK Dons. Solid and unspectacular.
6. MJ Williams - 7/10
A strong display. Pressed well and stopped MK Dons from getting ahead of steam. Brings more solidity to the midfield.
